Twists of Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory in Topological String Theory

Published 10 Feb 2025 in hep-th, math-ph, and math.MP | (2502.06647v2)

Abstract: We show that every twist of pure supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group GL(N) can be realized as an open-string field theory in topological string theory. Our approach reinterprets twists of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory as generalized Chern-Simons theories, and identifies topological string backgrounds that produce the corresponding Chern-Simons theories.
