Two-dimensional N=(2,2) Supersymmetric Lattice Gauge Theory with Matter Fields in the Fundamental Representation

Abstract

In this paper, we construct a lattice formulation for two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theory with matter fields in the fundamental representation. We first construct it by the orbifolding procedure from Yang-Mills matrix theory with eight supercharges. We show that we can obtain the same lattice formulation by extending the geometrical discretization scheme. This suggests that the equivalence between the two schemes holds even for theories with matter fields.
