At one-loop level the decay f1 --> f2 gamma, where f1 and f2 are two spin-1/2 particles with the same electric charge, is mediated by a boson B and a spin-1/2 fermion F. The boson B may have either spin 0 - interacting with the fermions…

We study the one-loop effective action for $6D,$ ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills (SYM) theory with hypermultiplets and $6D,$ ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ SYM theory as a subclass of the former, using the off-shell formulation of these…
We calculate the divergences of the generating functional of quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory at one loop, and renormalize the theory by an appropriate definition of the counterterms. We show that the quenched chiral logarithms can be…
We discuss how to formulate a staggered chiral perturbation theory. This amounts to a generalization of the Lee-Sharpe Lagrangian to include more than one flavor (i.e. multiple staggered fields), which turns out to be nontrivial. One loop…
We analyse a supersymmetric mechanical model derived from (1+1)-dimensional field theory with Yukawa interaction, assuming that all physical variables take their values in a Grassmann algebra B. Utilizing the symmetries of the model we…
