Adding Fundamental Matter to ``Chiral Rings and Anomalies in Supersymmetric Gauge Theory''

Abstract

We consider a supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory with matter fields in the adjoint, fundamental and anti-fundamental representations. As in the framework which was put forward by Dijkgraaf and Vafa, this theory can be described by a matrix model. We analyze this theory along the lines of [F. Cachazo, M. Douglas, N.S. and E. Witten, ``Chiral Rings and Anomalies in Supersymmetric Gauge Theory'' hep-th/0211170] and show the equivalence of the gauge theory and the matrix model. In particular, the anomaly equations in the gauge theory is identified with the loop equations in the matrix model.
