A class of two-dimensional sigma models interpolating between $CP^1$ and the $SU(2)$ principal chiral model is discussed. We add the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten term and examine the renormalization group flow of the two coupling constants…
In several elementary particle scenarios, self-dual fields emerge as fundamental degrees of freedom. Some examples are the $D = 2$ chiral boson, $D = 10$ Type IIB supergravity, and $D = 6$ chiral tensor multiplet theory. For those models, a…
A supersymmetric formulation of the classical action of interacting charged and neutral fermions with arbitrary anomalous magnetic moment is considered. This formulation generalizes the known action for scalar charged particles investigated…
In this letter we use the spurion field approach adopted in hep-th/0307099 in order to show that by adding F and F^2 terms to the original lagrangian, the N=1/2 Wess-Zumino model is renormalizable to all orders in perturbation theory. We…
We suggest a simple supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory in 6 dimensions which produces the suitable fermion mass hierarchies. The 5th and 6th dimensional coordinates are compactified on a $T^2/Z_2$ orbifold. The gauge and Higgs…
We show how it is possible to integrate out chiral matter fields in N=1 supersymmetric theories and in this way derive in a simple diagrammatic way the $N_f S \log S - S \log \det X$ part of the Veneziano-Yankielowicz-Taylor superpotential.
Extensions of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) gauge group abound in the literature. Several of these include an additional $U(1)_X$ gauge group. Chiral fermions' charge assignments under $U(1)_X$ are constrained to cancel…

The Nelson-Seiberg theorem and its extensions relate supersymmetry breaking and R-symmetries in Wess-Zumino models. But their applicability may be limited by previously found non-generic counterexamples. Constructing a dataset of…
