Seiberg-Witten for Spin(n) with Spinors

Abstract

N=2 supersymmetric Spin(n) gauge theory admits hypermultiplets in spinor representations of the gauge group, compatible with β≤0, for n≤ 14. The theories with β<0 can be obtained as mass-deformations of the β=0 theories, so it is of greatest interest to construct the β=0 theories. In previous works, we discussed the n≤8 theories. Here, we turn to the 9≤ n≤ 14 cases. By compactifying the DN (2,0) theory on a 4-punctured sphere, we find Seiberg-Witten solutions to almost all of the remaining cases. There are five theories, however, which do not seem to admit a realization from six dimensions.
