We present an exact formula for the $\beta$-function for the soft-breaking scalar mass in an N=1 supersymmetric gauge theory, in the form of an operator acting on the anomalous dimension. In particular we give the exact form for the…
For a general ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theory regularized by higher covariant derivatives we prove in all orders that the $\beta$-function defined in terms of the bare couplings is given by integrals of double total derivatives…
We study the impact of the Yukawa interaction in the large-$N_f$ limit to the abelian gauge theory. We compute the coupled $\beta$-functions for the system in a closed form at $\mathcal{O}(1/N_f)$.
We present the beta functions of gauge and Yukawa couplings in general four-dimensional quantum field theory, at four and three loops, respectively. The essence of our approach is fixing unknown coefficients in the most general ansatz for…
We verify a method which allows to obtain the $\beta$-function of supersymmetric theories regularized by higher covariant derivatives by calculating only specially modified vacuum supergraphs. With the help of this method for a general…
In models with dynamical supersymmetry breaking in the hidden sector, the gaugino masses in the observable sector have been believed to be extremely suppressed (below 1 keV), unless there is a gauge singlet in the hidden sector with…
The Gell-Mann -- Low function \beta(g) in QED (g is the fine structure constant) is reconstructed. At large g, it behaves as \beta_\infty g^\alpha with \alpha\approx 1, \beta_\infty\approx 1.
In the low energy limit of for M-theory on S^1/Z_2, we calculate the gaugino condensate potential in four dimensions using the background solutions due to Horava. We show that this potential is free of delta-function singularities and has…
In this contribution we consider the recent computation of the gauge coupling $\beta$-function at four loops and the Yukawa matrix $\beta$-function at three loops in the most general, renormalizable and four-dimensional quantum field…
We consider the renormalisation of a softly-broken supersymmetric theory with singlet fields and a superpotential with a linear term. We show that there exist exact beta-functions for both the linear term in the superpotential and the…
We describe a new method to determine non-perturbatively the beta function of a gauge theory using lattice simulations in the p-regime of the theory. This complements alternative measurements of the beta function working directly at zero…
We re-examine perturbative and nonperturbative aspects of the beta function in N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories, make comments on the recent literature on the subject and discuss the exactness of several known results such as the…
We determine the full set of coefficients for the completely general 4-loop gauge and 3-loop Yukawa $ \beta $-functions for the most general renormalizable four-dimensional theories. Using a complete parametrization of the $ \beta…
For $\cal N =$ 1 supersymmetric theories with multiple gauge couplings regularized by higher covariant derivatives, a general expression for three-loop gauge $\beta$-functions is obtained. For this purpose, using general statements about…
The new method of nonperturbative calculation of the beta-function in the lattice gauge theory is proposed. The method is based on the finite size scaling hypothesis.
We obtain exact relations (valid to all orders in the coupling constant) for the running gaugino mass in supersymmetric gauge theories, treating the soft supersymmetry breaking effects in the linear approximation. If a supersymmetry…
We calculate the two-loop $\beta$-functions for soft supersymmetry-breaking interactions in a general supersymmetric gauge theory, emphasising the role of the evanescent couplings and masses that are generic to a non-supersymmetric theory.…
In completely generic four-dimensional gauge-Yukawa theories, the renormalization group $ \beta $-functions are known to the 3-2-2 loop order in gauge, Yukawa, and quartic couplings, respectively. It does, however, remain difficult to apply…
We present calculations of the leading and O(1/N) terms in a large-N expansion of the \beta-functions for various supersymmetric theories: a Wess-Zumino model, supersymmetric QED and a non-abelian supersymmetric gauge theory. In all cases N…
We provide a closed analytical form for the gauge contribution to the beta function of a generic Yukawa coupling in the limit of large $N_F$, where $N_F$ is the number of heavy vector-like fermions charged under an abelian or non-abelian…
