I provide a pedagogical introduction to supersymmetry. The level of discussion is aimed at readers who are familiar with the Standard Model and quantum field theory, but who have had little or no prior exposure to supersymmetry. Topics…
We study several models of relevance for the dynamical breaking of supersymmetry which could provide a scalar component with equation of state $p=w\rho$, $-1<w<0$. Such models would provide a natural explanation for recent data on the…

We show that the natural presence of flat directions in supersymmetric theories allows for nonrestoration of global and/or gauge symmetries. This has important cosmological consequences for supersymmetric GUTs and in particular it offers a…
