These results include the exact calculation of the low energy effective action for the light degrees of freedom in the $N=2$ super Yang-Mills theory and the conjecture, supported by some checks, that the $N=4$ super Yang-Mills theory is dual in the sense of Montonen-Olive.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-08-14T12:56:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "supersymmetric gauge theories", "super yang-mills theory", "low energy effective action", "light degrees", "exact results" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1080/01422419708219634" }, "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 35, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 422017, "adsabs": "1996hep.th....8090D" } } }
