We study the off-shell structure of the two-loop effective action in $6D, {\cal N}=(1,1)$ supersymmetric gauge theories formulated in ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ harmonic superspace. The off-shell effective action involving all fields of $6D, {\cal…
We conduct a systematic search for anomaly-free six-dimensional N=1 chiral supergravity theories. Under a certain set of restrictions on the allowed gauge groups and the representations of the hypermultiplets, we enumerate all possible…
A cancellation of conformal anomalies in d=4 for the $C^2+\bar C^2$ and of chiral anomalies for the $C^2-\bar C^2$ is known in N-extended supergravities with $N \geq 5$. We propose an explanation of these cancellations using supersymmetry…
We propose a mechanism in which, using an eightbrane, a sixbrane ends on a NS brane in type IIA superstring theory. We use this mechanism to construct N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions with chiral matter localized in…
We develop a general gauge invariant construction of the one-loop effective action for supersymmetric gauge field theories formulated in ${\cal N}=1/2$ superspace. Using manifestly covariant techniques (the background superfield method and…
Elaborating on previous work (hep-th/0605211, hep-th/0611247), we show how the linear and nonlinear chiral multiplets of N=4 supersymmetric mechanics with the off-shell content (2,4,2) can be obtained by gauging three distinct two-parameter…
We consider five-dimensional supergravity theories with eight or sixteen supercharges with Abelian vector fields and ungauged scalars. We address the question under which conditions these theories can be interpreted as effective low energy…
The low energy effective theory of the N=1 supersymmetric SU(5) gauge theory with chiral superfields in the 5* and 10 representations is constructed. Instead of postulating the confinement of SU(5) (confining picture), only the confinement…
In this paper we discuss the interplay among (~super-~)coordinate, Weyl and \l\ anomaly both in chiral and non-chiral super-gravity represented by $(1,0)$ and $(1,1)$ two-dimensional models. It is shown that for this purpose two…
We give an overview of the issue of anomalies in field theories with extra dimensions. We start by reviewing in a pedagogical way the computation of the standard perturbative gauge and gravitational anomalies on non-compact spaces, using…
We investigate the chiral anomaly in a Floquet system under a time-periodic electric field in (1+1) dimensions. Using the van~Vleck high-frequency expansion, we analytically calculate the chiral current and the pseudo-scalar condensate for…
We have constructed the N=1/2 supersymmetric general Abelian model with asymmetric chiral couplings. This leads to a N=1/2 supersymmetrization of the Schwinger model. We show that the supersymmetric general model is plagued with problems of…
For $6D$, ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ SYM theory formulated in ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ harmonic superspace as a theory of interacting gauge multiplet and hypermultiplet we construct the ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ supersymmetric Heisenberg-Euler-type superfield…
The two-loop anomalous dimension of the chiral matter superfields is calculated for a general ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theory regularized by higher covariant derivatives. We obtain both the anomalous dimension defined in terms of…
We investigate some aspects of Moyal-Weyl deformations of superspace and their compatibility with supersymmetry. For the simplest case, when only bosonic coordinates are deformed, we consider a four dimensional supersymmetric field theory…
We study N=1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories coupled to an adjoint chiral field with superpotential. We consider the full supersymmetric moduli space of these theories obtained by adding all allowed chiral operators. These include…
We give a modern geometric viewpoint on anomalies in quantum field theory and illustrate it in a 1-dimensional theory: supersymmetric quantum mechanics. This is background for the resolution of worldsheet anomalies in orientifold…
We show the existence of global gauge anomalies in six dimensions for gauge groups SU(2),SU(3) and G_2 coupled to matter, characterized by an element of Z_{12},Z_6 and Z_3 respectively. Consideration of this anomaly rules out some of the…
We exploit the $6D, {\cal N}=(1,0)$ and ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ harmonic superspace approaches to construct the full set of the maximally supersymmetric on-shell invariants of the canonical dimension ${\bf d=12}$ in $6D, \,{\cal N}=(1,1)$…
We construct $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric nonlocal theories in four dimension. We discuss higher derivative extensions of chiral and vector superfields, and write down generic forms of K\"ahler potential and superpotential up to quadratic…
