This paper addresses an issue essential to the study of hidden supersymmetries (meaning here ones that do not close on the Hamiltonian) for one-dimensional non-linear supersymmetric sigma models. The issue relates to ambiguities, due to…
We consider D-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories with 8 supercharges (D<6,$~\mathcal{N}=8$) in the framework of harmonic superspaces. The effective Abelian low-energy action for D=5 contains the free and Chern-Simons terms. Effective…
Recently, Maldacena proposed that the large N limit of the N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions with U(N) gauge group is dual to the type IIB superstring theory on AdS_5 x S^5. We use this proposal to study the spectrum of the…
It was recently proposed that N=1 supersymmetric gauged matrix models have a duality of order four - that is, a quadrality - reminiscent of infrared dualities of SQCD theories in higher dimensions. In this note, we show that the…
We examine the interrelation between the (2,0) supersymmetric six dimensional effective action for the A_1 theory, and the corresponding low-energy theory for the collective coordinates associated to supersymmetric selfdual BPS strings. We…
We present a novel class of theories where supersymmetry is only preserved in a partial (non-isolated) sector. The supersymmetric sector consists of CFT bound-states that can coexist with fundamental states which do not respect…
The complete spectrum of states in the supersymmetric principal chiral model based on SU(n) is conjectured, and an exact factorizable S-matrix is proposed to describe scattering amongst these states. The SU(n)_L*SU(n)_R symmetry of the…
Nonobservation of superparticles till date, new Higgs mass limits from the CMS and ATLAS experiments, WMAP constraints on relic density, various other low energy data, and the naturalness consideration, all considered simultaneously imply a…
Noncommutative geometry has seen remarkable applications for high energy physics, viz. the geometrical interpretation of the Standard Model. The question whether it also allows for supersymmetric theories has so far not been answered in a…
In these lectures, we review the D=11 supermembrane and supersymmetric matrix models at an introductory level. We also discuss some more recent developments in connection with non-perturbative string theory.
We present a self--consistent $E_6$ inspired supersymmetric model with an extra $U(1)_{N}$ gauge symmetry under which right-handed neutrinos have zero charge. We explore the particle spectrum within the constrained version of this…
The existence of supersymmetry above a few TeV and that of two Higgs doublets at the electroweak energy scale do not necessarily result in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). An interesting counter example is given with m_h <…
In the framework of the matrix model/gauge theory correspondence, we consider supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory with $U(1)^N$ symmetry breaking pattern. Due to the presence of the Veneziano--Yankielowicz effective superpotential, in order to…
We investigate N-extended supersymmetry in one-dimensional quantum mechanics on a circle with point singularities. For any integer n, N=2n supercharges are explicitly constructed and a class of point singularities compatible with…
Due to the lack of the translational symmetry, calculating the energy spectrum of an incommensurate system has always been a theoretical challenge. Here, we propose a natural approach to generalize the energy band theory to the…
We investigate the thermodynamic limit of the exact solution, which is given by an inhomogeneous $T-Q$ relation, of the one-dimensional supersymmetric $t-J$ model with unparallel boundary magnetic fields. It is shown that the contribution…
We examine a dual theory of a Supersymmetric Standard Model(SSM) in terms of an $SU(3)_C$ gauge group. In this scenario, it is naturally understood that at least one quark (the top quark) should be heavy, i.e., almost the same order as the…
Quantifying the flow of energy within and through fluctuating nanoscale systems poses a significant challenge to understanding microscopic biological machines. A common approach involves coarse-graining, which allows a simplified…
We present a matrix action based on the unitary group U(N) whose large N ground states are conjectured to be in precise correspondence with the weak-strong dual effective field theory limits of M theory preserving sixteen supersymmetries.…
In recent years two intriguing observations have been made for N=4 super Yang-Mills theory and for superstrings on AdS5xS5: In the planar limit the computation of the spectrum is vastly simplified by the apparent integrability of the…
