It is shown that the new sources of CP violation can be generated in the models with more than one extra dimensions. In the supersymmetric models on the space-time $M^4\times T^2/Z_2$, where the radius moduli have auxiliary vacuum…
The classification of Lorentz- and CPT-violating operators in nonabelian gauge field theories is performed. We construct all gauge-invariant terms describing propagation and interaction in the action for fermions and gauge fields.…
This brief review discusses Lorentz-violating operators of arbitrary dimension within the photon and neutrino sectors of the Standard-Model Extension.
The violation of spacetime symmetries provides a promising candidate signal for underlying physics, possibly arising at the Planck scale. This talk gives an overview over various aspects in the field, including some mechanisms for Lorentz…
An interacting theory that violates CPT invariance necessarily violates Lorentz invariance. On the other hand, CPT invariance is not sufficient for out-of-cone Lorentz invariance. Theories that violate CPT by having different particle and…
In this talk, the status of CPT tests with neutral mesons is reviewed in the context of quantum field theory and the Lorentz- and CPT-violating standard-model extension.
We briefly cover the early history of supersymmetry, describe the relation of SUSY quantum field theories to superstring theories and explain why they are considered a likely tool to describe the phenomenology of high energy particle theory…
In the context of supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models with an R symmetry, we find some simple conditions on the R-charge content of the theory that imply the presence or absence of supersymmetric and R-symmetric vacua. The main result of this…
Spontaneous Lorentz violation is a viable mechanism to look for Planck scale physics. In this work, we study spontaneous Lorentz violation models, in flat spacetime, where a vector field produces such a violation and matter is modeled by a…
The $N=2$ minimal superconformal model can be twisted yielding an example of topological conformal field theory. In this article we investigate a Lie theoretic extension of this process.
Supersymmetry might be broken, in the real world, by anomalies that affect composite operators, while leaving the action supersymmetric. New constraint equations that govern the composite operators and their anomalies are examined. It is…
The one-loop divergences for the scalar field theory with Lorentz and/or CPT breaking terms are obtained in curved space-time. We analyze two separate cases: minimal coupled scalar field with gravity and nonminimal one. For the minimal case…
Generic violations of Lorentz symmetry can be described by an effective field theory framework that contains both general relativity and the standard model of particle physics called the Standard-Model Extension (SME). We obtain new…
Supersymmetric extensions of the standard model generically contain additional sources of CP violation. We discuss how at one loop a potentially large CP violating coupling of the lightest Higgs, h^0, to leptons is induced in the minimal…
We study the renormalizable abelian vector-field models in the presence of the Wess-Zumino interaction with the pseudoscalar matter. The renormalizability is achieved by supplementing the standard kinetic term of vector fields with higher…
The Lorentz invariant $CPT$ violation by using non-local interactions is naturally incorporated in the Higgs coupling to neutrinos in the Standard Model, without spoiling the basic $SU(2)_{L}\times U(1)$ gauge symmetry. The…
Spacetime-varying coupling constants can be associated with violations of local Lorentz invariance and CPT symmetry. An analytical supergravity cosmology with time-varying fine-structure constant provides an explicit example. Estimates are…
We consider models for physics beyond the standard model in which supersymmetry is broken spontaneously near the weak scale by fields that are charged under electroweak symmetry. We show that this is possible if some or all of the light…
We consider neutrino oscillations in the minimal Standard-Model Extension describing general Lorentz and CPT violation. Among the models without neutrino mass differences is one with two degrees of freedom that reproduces most major…
We give a new interpretation for the super loop space that has been used to formulate supersymmetry. The fermionic coordinates in the super loop space are identified as the odd generators of the Weil algebra. Their bosonic superpartners are…
