We apply the functional renormalization group approach to a $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge model with one chiral superfield coupled to a vector $U(1)$ superfield. We find that the nonrenormalization theorem still works at leading…
A formal expansion for the Green's functions of an interacting quantum field theory in a parameter that somehow encodes its "distance" from the corresponding non-interacting one was introduced more than thirty years ago, and has been…
The microscopic correlation functions of non-chiral random matrix models with complex eigenvalues are analyzed for a wide class of non-Gaussian measures. In the large-N limit of weak non-Hermiticity, where N is the size of the complex…
We study the Wess-Zumino model with the coupling extended to a chiral superfield. In order to incorporate the renormalization effects a further external real field has to be introduced. It is then possible to derive a Callan-Symanzik…
We investigate the superconformal transformation properties of Green functions with one or more insertions of the supercurrent in N=1 supersymmetric quantum field theories. These Green functions are conveniently obtained by coupling the…
We consider theories with gauged chiral fermions in which there are abelian anomalies, and no nonabelian anomalies (but there may be nonabelian gauge fields present). We construct an associated theory that is gauge invariant,…
A perturbative non-renormalization theorem is presented that applies to general supersymmetric theories, including non-renormalizable theories in which the $\int d^2\theta$ integrand is an arbitrary gauge-invariant function $F(\Phi,W)$ of…
We study the supersymmetric N=(2,2) Wess-Zumino model in two dimensions with the functional renormalization group. At leading order in the supercovariant derivative expansion we recover the nonrenormalization theorem which states that the…
We give an intuitive proof of a new non-renormalization theorem in supersymmetric field theories. It applies both perturbatively and non-perturbatively. The superpotential is not renormalized in perturbation theory but receives…
Non-chiral bosonization technique adapted to study chiral quantum wires with non-interacting fermions coupled through a point-contact with a constant bias between the wires is introduced and is shown to reproduce the exact Green functions…
Previous results on fermion chirality-flipping four-point functions are extended to $SU(N)$ gauge theories. The problem is purely non-perturbative, and it is approached by truncating the Schwinger-Dyson hierarchy. The large-$N$ limit also…
We discuss the non-anticommutative (N=1/2) supersymmetric Wess-Zumino model in four dimensions. Firstly we introduce differential operators which implement the non-anticommutative supersymmetry algebra acting on the component fields and…
A proof of renormalizability of the theory of the dynamical non-Abelian two-form is given using the Zinn-Justin equation. Two previously unknown symmetries of the quantum action, different from the BRST symmetry, are needed for the proof.…
The renormalization procedure is proved to be a rigorous way to get finite answers in a renormalizable class of field theories. We claim, however, that it is redundant if one reduces the requirement of finiteness to S-matrix elements only…
We show that the noncommutative Wess-Zumino model is renormalizable to all orders of perturbation theory. The noncommutative scalar potential by itself is non-renormalizable but the Yukawa terms demanded by supersymmetry improve the…
This review provides a detailed introduction to chiral gauge theories, renormalization theory, and the application of dimensional regularization with the non-anticommuting BMHV scheme for $\gamma_5$. One goal is to show how chiral gauge…
Nonreciprocal theories are used to model a broad array of non-equilibrium phenomena found in nature ranging from biological systems like networks of neurons to the behavior of overflowing water fountains. This includes systems broadly…
We renormalize models with scalar chiral superfields with an odd superpotential to several orders in perturbation theory. These extensions of the cubic Wess-Zumino model are renormalizable in spacetime dimensions which are rational. When…
It has been conjectured in the literature that renormalizability of the $\theta$-expanded noncommutative gauge theories improves when one takes into account full nonuniqueness of the Seiberg-Witten expansion, which relates noncommutative…
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…
