A-D-E Singularity and the Seiberg-Witten TheoryDOI: 10.1143/PTPS.135.94 Abstract: We study the low-energy effective theory of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with ADE gauge groups in view of the spectral curves of the periodic Toda lattice and the A-D-E singularity theory. We examine the exact solutions by using the Picard-Fuchs equations for the period integrals of the Seiberg-Witten differential. In particular, we find that the superconformal fixed point in the strong coupling region of the Coulomb branch is characterized by the ADE superpotential. We compute the scaling exponents, which agree with the previous results.
