Various aspects of physics at LEP 2 are reviewed from a phenomenological point of view. We first discuss the search for Higgs bosons, which might be relatively light if indications from the precision electroweak data and supersymmetry are…
We begin with a brief discussion of the building blocks of supersymmetric grand unified theories. We recall some of the compelling theoretical reasons for viewing supersymmetric grand unification as an attractive avenue for physics beyond…
This document contains a description of physics entirely based on a geometric presentation: all of the theory is described giving only a pseudo-riemannian manifold (M, g) of dimension n > 5 for which the g tensor is, in studied domains,…
Preliminary Remarks. Gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking. Gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking. Anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking. Gaugino mediated supersymmetry breaking. Braneworld supersymmetry breaking. Conclusions.
We demonstrate, by giving a specific example, that supersymmetry can be left unbroken without running into conflict with observation. The key idea is to employ a discrete form of supersymmetry. Amongst other interesting features, this…
The theoretical expectations for the supersymmetric particle spectrum is reviewed and a brief overview on present constraints on supersymmetric models from collider experiments is presented. Finally, we discuss the discovery potential of…
This review article is the second part of the project ``Selected Topics of Social Physics". The first part has been devoted to equilibrium systems. The present part considers nonequilibrium systems. The style of the paper combines the…
We describe a new realization of supersymmetry, called scalar supersymmetry, acting in spaces of differential forms (bi-spinors), where transformation parameters are Lorentz scalars instead of spinors. The realization is related but is not…
In an effort to promote communication between the formal and phenomenological branches of the high-energy theory community, we provide a description of some important issues in supersymmetric and string phenomenology. We describe each…
In these proceedings for the First School on Field Theory and Gravitation (Vit\'oria, Brasil), a brief introduction is given to superstring theory and its duality symmetries. This introduction is intended for beginning graduate students…
There are many low-energy models of supersymmetry breaking parameters which are motivated by theoretical and experimental considerations. Here, we discuss some of the lesser-known theories of low-energy supersymmetry, and outline their…
This set of lectures contain a brief review of some basic supersymmetry and its representations, with emphasis on superspace and superfields. Starting from the Poincar\'e group, the supersymmetric extensions allowed by the Coleman-Mandula…
Current results from the D0 exp indicate the presence of an oscillation not explained by the currently accepted theory. An explanation is offered based on a combination of low-energy 'sring${}^{1/n}$' and 'particle' dynamics. The dynamics…
Recent work has made clear that we have far more control over the dynamics of supersymmetric than non-supersymmetric theories. Here, I discuss some issues in dynamical supersymmetry breaking both in ordinary field theory and in string…
The present review is based on the lectures that the author had been giving during several years at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich). Being bounded by lecture frames, the selection of the material, by…
Lecture notes used as part of a graduate-level Introduction to Solid State Physics course at Cornell University. I attempt to unify and update the discussion of magnetism and superconductivity relative to standard textbook treatments, and…
The minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) is reviewed. In the most general framework with minimal field content and R-parity conservation, the MSSM is a 124-parameter model (henceforth called MSSM-124). An acceptable…
This set of lectures covers the very basics of flavor physics and are aimed to be an entry point to the subject. A lot of problems are provided in the hope of making the manuscript a self study guide.
This is a review article for Encyclopedia of Complexity and System Science, to be published by Springer http://refworks.springer.com/complexity/. The paper reviews statistical models for money, wealth, and income distributions developed in…
We lay down the foundations for a systematic study of differentiable and algebraic supervarieties, with a special attention to supergroups.
