Abstract

A longstanding puzzle concerns the calculation of the gluino condensate <{tr\lambda^2\over 16\pi^2}> = c\Lambda^3 in N=1 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory: so-called weak-coupling instanton (WCI) calculations give c=1, whereas strong-coupling instanton (SCI) calculations give, instead, c=2[(N-...
