For the purpose of constructing supersymmetric(SUSY) theories on lattice, we propose a new type relation on lattice -cyclic Leibniz rule(CLR)- which is slightly different from an ordinary Leibniz rule. Actually, we find that CLR can enlarge…
We present a new supersymmetric approach to the Kondo lattice model in order to describe simultaneously the quasiparticle excitations and the low-energy magnetic fluctuations in heavy-Fermion systems. This approach mixes the fermionic and…
We analyse supersymmetric models that show supersymmetry breaking in one and two dimensions using lattice methods. Starting from supersymmetric quantum mechanics we explain the fundamental principles and problems that arise in putting…
It is known that certain theories with extended supersymmetry can be discretized in such a way as to preserve an exact fermionic symmetry. In the simplest model of this kind, we show that this residual supersymmetric invariance is actually…
We discuss a new approach to putting supersymmetric theories on the lattice. The basic idea is to start from a {\it twisted} formulation of the underlying supersymmetric theory in which the fermions are represented as grassmann valued…
We study the physics of two species of non-relativistic hard-core bosons with attractive or repulsive delta function interactions on a spacetime lattice using the worldline formulation. By tuning the chemical potential carefully we show…
We describe how the usual supercharges of extended supersymmetry may be {\it twisted} to produce a BRST-like supercharge $Q$. The usual supersymmetry algebra is then replaced by a twisted algebra and the action of the twisted theory is…
A lattice formulation of the four dimensional Wess-Zumino model that uses Ginsparg-Wilson fermions and keeps exact supersymmetry is presented. The supersymmetry transformation that leaves invariant the action at finite lattice spacing is…
We show that a dynamical supersymmetry can appear in a purely fermionic system. This ``supersymmetry without bosons" is constructed by application of a recently introduced boson-fermion Dyson mapping from a fermion space to a space…
We construct a lattice theory with one exact supersymmetry which consists of fields transforming in both the adjoint and fundamental representations of a U(Nc) gauge group. In addition to gluons and gluinos, the theory contains Nf flavors…
We study lattice formulations of the two-dimensional N=2 Wess-Zumino model with a cubic superpotential. Discretizations with and without lattice supersymmetries are compared. We observe that the "Nicolai improvement" introduces new problems…
Supersymmetry, originally proposed in particle physics, refers to a dual relation that connects fermionic and bosonic degrees of freedom in a system. Recently, there has been considerable interest in applying the idea of supersymmetry to…
We review the construction of exactly solvable lattice models whose continuum limits are $N=2$ supersymmetric models. Both critical and off-critical models are discussed. The approach we take is to first find lattice models with natural…
We study and simulate N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models in one and two dimensions. For any choice of the lattice derivative, the theories can be made manifestly supersymmetric by adding appropriate improvement terms corresponding to…
We present a simple lattice formulation of two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ $U(k)$ supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) with $N$ matter multiplets in the fundamental representation. The construction uses compact gauge link variables and exactly…
We construct a lattice action for ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions which is local, gauge invariant, free of spectrum doubling and possesses a single exact supersymmetry. Our construction starts from the observation…
We recall the obstacles which seemed, long ago, to prevent supersymmetry from possibly being a fundamental symmetry of Nature. Which bosons and fermions could be related? Is spontaneous supersymmetry breaking possible? Where is the spin-1/2…
(Revised, with postscript figures appended, corrections and added comments.) We develop and describe new approaches to the problem of interacting Fermions in spatial dimensions greater than one. These approaches are based on generalizations…
