On the Nelson-Seiberg theorem: generalizations and counter-examples

High Energy Physics - Theory 2020-05-06 v1

Abstract

In this note we elaborate on a recent counter-example to the Nelson-Seiberg theorem and to its generalizations. We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of such counter-examples, finding new ones. We claim that these counter-examples are connected with the presence of pairs of fields with opposite R-charge getting a VEV. Furthermore we comment on the "non-genericity" of our models, showing that none of them violates the original Nelson-Seiberg theorem
