From gauged linear sigma models to geometric representation of in 2D
Abstract
In this paper two issues are addressed. First, we discuss renormalization properties of a class of gauged linear sigma models (GLSM), which reduce to $$\mathbb{WCP}(N,\tilde{N})$$ nonlinear sigma models (NLSM) in the low-energy limit. Sometimes they are referred to as the Hanany-Tong models. If supersymmetry is $$\mathcal{N}$$ = (2, 2) the ultraviolet-divergent logarithm in GLSM appears, in the renormalization of the Fayet-Iliopoulos parameter, and is exhausted by a single tadpole graph. This is not the case in the daughter NLSMs. As a result, the one-loop renormalizations are different in GLSMs and their daughter NLSMs. We explain this difference and identify its source. In particular, we show why at $$N =\tilde{N}$$ there is no UV logarithm in the parent GLSM, while they do appear in the corresponding NLSM. In the second part of the paper we discuss the same problem for a class of $$\mathcal{N}$$ = (0, 2) GLSMs considered previously. In this case renormalization is not limited to one loop; all orders exact $$\beta$$ functions for GLSMs are known. We discuss logarithmically divergent loops at one- and two-loop levels.
