We take new algebraic and geometric perspectives on the old subject of SQCD. We count chiral gauge invariant operators using generating functions, or Hilbert series, derived from the plethystic programme and the Molien-Weyl formula. Using…
We use the plethystic exponential and the Molien-Weyl formula to compute the Hilbert series (generating funtions), which count gauge invariant operators in N=1 supersymmetric SU(N_c), Sp(N_c), SO(N_c) and G_2 gauge theories with 1 adjoint…
We study the vacuum geometry prescribed by the gauge invariant operators of the MSSM via the Plethystic Programme. This is achieved by using several tricks to perform the highly computationally challenging Molien-Weyl integral, from which…
