Five-dimensional gauge theories on spheres with negative couplings
Abstract We consider supersymmetric gauge theories on S 5 with a negative Yang-Mills coupling in their large N limits. Using localization we compute the partition functions and show that the pure SU(N) gauge theory descends to an SU(N/2)+N/2 × SU(N/2) −N/2 × SU(2) Chern-Simons gauge theory as the in...
