Holomorphic anomaly in gauge theories and matrix models

Abstract: We use the holomorphic anomaly equation to solve the gravitational corrections to Seiberg-Witten theory and a two-cut matrix model, which is related by the Dijkgraaf-Vafa conjecture to the topological B-model on a local Calabi-Yau manifold. In both cases we construct propagators that give a recursive solution in the genus modulo a holomorphic ambiguity. In the case of Seiberg-Witten theory the gravitational corrections can be expressed in closed form as quasimodular functions of Γ(2). In the matrix model we fi… Show more

“…In particular the leading singularity in (30) as well as the absence of subleading singular terms follows from the Schwinger loop computation of [15], which computes the effect of the extra massless hypermultiplet in the space-time theory [19]. The singular structure and the "gap" of subleading singular terms have been also observed in the dual matrix model [20] and were first used in [13,9] to fix the holomorphic ambiguity to very high genus. Note that the space-time derivation of [15] is not restricted to the conifold case and applies also to Calabi-Yau singularities which give rise to a different spectrum of extra massless vector and hypermultiplets in space-time.…”
