The class of relativistic spin particle models reveals the `quantization' of parameters already at the classical level. The special parameter values emerge if one requires the maximality of classical global continuous symmetries. The same…
The fate of R-parity in supersymmetric theories is discussed in detail. We make a strong case for R-parity violation showing that the simplest theories based on the local B-L symmetry predict the spontaneous breaking of R-parity at the SUSY…
R-parity conservation is an {\it ad hoc} assumption in the most popular version of the supersymmetric standard model. Most studies of models which do allow for R-parity violation have been restricted to various limiting scenarios. The…
We investigate Supersymmetric models where neither R parity nor lepton number is imposed. Neutrino masses can be kept highly suppressed compared to the electroweak scale if the $\mu$-terms in the superpotential are aligned with the…
We introduce fermions into the E11 non-linear realisation. We show, at low levels, that the commutators of the Cartan involution invariant subalgebra of E11 with the known supersymmetry transformations of eleven dimensional supergravity…
The generic supersymmetric standard model is a model built from a supersymmetrized standard model field spectrum the gauge symmetries only. The popular minimal supersymmetric standard model differs from the generic version in having…
Recently, it was observed that self-interacting scalar quantum field theories having a non-Hermitian interaction term of the form $g(i\phi)^{2+\delta}$, where $\delta$ is a real positive parameter, are physically acceptable in the sense…
The existence of an SU(3) X SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R X U(1) gauge symmetry with g_L = g_R at the TeV energy scale is shown to be consistent with supersymmetric SO(10) grand unification at around 1O^{16} GeV if certain new particles are assumed.…
Recently, a scenario has been proposed in which the gravitational scale could be as low as the TeV scale, and extra dimensions could be large and detectable at the electroweak scale. Although supersymmetry is not a requirement of this…
Since baryon number B and lepton number L are no longer automatically conserved once the standard model is extended to include supersymmetry, the usually assumed conservation of R parity is an imposed condition. For a more satisfactory…
We show that various actions of topological conformal theories that were suggested recentely are particular cases of a general action. We prove the invariance of these models under transformations generated by nilpotent fermionic generators…
We suggest that a singlet fermion $S$ exists beyond the standard see-saw structure. It mixes with light neutrinos via interactions with the right-handed neutrino components, so that $\n_e \to S$ conversion solves the solar neutrino problem.…
Supersymmetric theories are reviewed in the context of field theories. The gauge hierarchy problem in attempting the unification of all fundamental interactions is the strongest motivation of modern development of supersymmetry. Starting…
We find examples of duality among quantum theories that are related to arithmetic functions by identifying distinct Hamiltonians that have identical partition functions at suitably related coupling constants or temperatures. We are led to…
We present a parametrization of the supersymmetric standard model without R-parity that permits efficient phenomenological analyses of the full model without a priori assumptions. Under the parametrization, which is characterized by a…
In the supersymmetric standard model of particle interactions, R-parity nonconservation is often invoked to obtain nonzero neutrino masses. We point out here that such interactions of the supersymmetric particles would erase any…
We investigate simple examples of supersymmetry algebras with real and Grassmann parameters. Special attention is payed to the finite supertransformations and their probability interpretation. Furthermore we look for combinations of bosons…
In this paper, we discuss the generalizations of exact supersymmetries present in the supersymmetrized sigma models. These generalizations are made by making the supersymmetric transformation parameter field-dependent. Remarkably, the…
We build a supersymmetric version with $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_{Y^\prime}\otimes U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry, where $Y^\prime$ is a new charge and $B$ and $L$ are the usual baryonic and leptonic numbers. The model has three…
We extend superspace by introducing an antisymmetric tensorial coordinate. The resulting theory presents a supersymmetry with central charge. After integrating over the tensorial coordinate, an effective action describing massive bosons and…
