Here $F$ is the prepotential, $a_i$'s are the expectation values of the scalar fields in the vector multiplet, $u=1/2\\, {\\rm Tr}\\, \\langle\\phi^2\\rangle$ and $b_1$ is the coefficient of the one-loop $\\beta$-function. This equation holds in the Coulomb branch of all $N=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories coupled with massless matter.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1995-10-27T11:56:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "soliton equations", "prepotential", "coulomb branch", "equation holds", "scalar fields" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 401416 } } }
