The field of computational modeling of the brain is advancing so rapidly that now it is possible to model large scale networks representing different brain regions with a high level of biological detail in terms of numbers and synapses. For…
Introductory lectures on the phenomenology of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The emphasis is on general signatures for supersymmetry and on the motivation for constructing supersymmetric models. These lectures are intended for…
In a previous paper (hep-th/9801040), the superconnection formalism was used to fit the Higgs field into a U(n) gauge theory with particular emphasis on the n=2 case, aiming at the reconstruction of certain parts of the Standard Model. The…
We consider the insertion of integrable boundaries for a class of supersymmetric quantum models. The generic conditions for constructing purely bosonic, purely fermionic or mixed type solutions of the graded reflection equation are…
An investigation is made of the super-Calogero model with particular emphasis on its continuum formulation and possible application in the context of supersymmetrizing the bosonic collective d=1 string field theory.
Recent developments in supersymmetric unified theories are reviewed, with particular emphasis on supersymmetric grand unification and a brief discussion of recent ideas about extra dimensions.
We show that the continuum limit of one-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric matrix models can be described by a two-dimensional interacting field theory of a massless boson and two chiral fermions. We interpret this field theory as a…
We discuss the mass varying neutrino scenario in the supersymmetric theory. In the case of the model with the single superfield, one needs the soft SUSY breaking terms or the $\mu$ term. However, fine-tunings of some parameters are required…
Massive neutrinos are a generic prediction of SO(10), and models of unification cry for supersymmetry. Since we have a rather detailed information on neutrino and charged fermion masses, the real question is: how/whether it is possible to…
We consider the theory of open bosonic string in massive background fields. The general structure of renormalization is investigated. A general covariant action for a string in background fields of the first massive level is suggested and…
We describe the recently introduced method of Algebraic Bosonization of (1+1)-dimensional fermionic systems by discussing the specific case of the Calogero-Sutherland model. A comparison with the Bethe Ansatz results is also presented.
We introduce a new model describing a bosonic system with chiral properties. It consists of a free boson with two peculiar couplings to the background geometry which generalizes the Feigen-Fuchs-Dotsenko-Fateev construction. By choosing the…
In the first part of this paper we investigate the operator aspect of higher-rank supersymmetric model which is introduced as a Lie theoretic extension of the $N=2$ minimal model with the simplest case $su(2)$ corresponding to the $N=2$…
We consider bosonic supersymmetric backgrounds of ten-dimensional conformal supergravity. Up to local conformal isometry, we classify the maximally supersymmetric backgrounds, determine their conformal symmetry superalgebras and show how…
In this thesis my papers hep-th/0104190, hep-th/0310214, hep-th/0405072 and hep-th/0406065 are put into context. The thesis is mainly focused on noncommutative field theory and string theory, so results in the papers that are not related to…
An overview of string theory in the maximally supersymmetric plane-wave background is given, and some supersymmetric D-branes are discussed.
A short review of some of the aspects of quintessence model building is presented. We emphasize the role of tracking models and their possible supersymmetric origin.
In this paper, we discuss the generalizations of exact supersymmetries present in the supersymmetrized sigma models. These generalizations are made by making the supersymmetric transformation parameter field-dependent. Remarkably, the…
Matrix models are a promising candidate for a nonperturbative formulation of the superstring theory. It is possible to study how the standard model and other phenomenological models appear from the matrix model, and estimate the probability…
In my talk I will present an overview of our recent work involving the use of supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSY-QM). I begin by discussing the mathematical underpinnings of SUSY-QM and then discuss how we have used this for developing…
