The Hamiltonian of a recently proposed supersymmetric matrix model has been shown to become block-diagonal in the large-N, infinite 't Hooft coupling limit. We show that (most of) these blocks can be mapped into seemingly non-supersymmetric…
Following the approach of Callan and Thorlacius applied to the superstring, we derive a supersymmetric extension of the non-local dissipative action of Caldeira and Leggett. The dissipative term turns out to be invariant under a group of…

A model for $n$ superparticles in $(d-n,n)$ dimensions is studied. The target space supersymmetry involves a product of $n$ momentum generators, and the action has $n(n+1)/2$ local bosonic symmetries and $n$ local fermionic symmetries. The…
We consider supersymmetric extensions of a recently proposed partonic description of a bosonic p-brane which reformulates the Nambu-Goto action as an interacting multi-particle action with Filippov-Lie algebra gauge symmetry. We construct a…
Supersymmetry is a symmetry between a boson and a fermion. Although there is no apparent supersymmetry in nature, its mathematical consistency and appealing property have led many people to believe that supersymmetry may exist in nature in…
In quantum mechanics, supersymmetry (SUSY) posits an equivalence between two elementary degrees of freedom, bosons, and fermions defined by local rules. Here we apply it to find connections between bosonic and fermionic lattice models in…
We find a simpler formulation of the Green-Schwarz action, for which the Wess-Zumino term is the square of supersymmetric currents, like the rest of the action. On a random lattice it gives Feynman diagrams of a particle superfield theory.
We consider actions of quantum groups on lattice spin systems. We show that if an action of a quantum group respects the local structure of a lattice system, it has to be an ordinary group. Even allowing weakly delocalized (quasi-local)…

We carry out a detailed analysis of the scalar sector of the nonminimal supersymmetric standard model with lepton number violation, and study the constraints imposed on it by the stability of the electroweak symmetry breaking vacuum. The…
