In 6D orbifold compactifications of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories, the one-loop behaviour of the 4D {\it effective} gauge coupling and of its beta function are carefully investigated for momentum scales k^2 near the compactification…
Moduli stabilisation in superstring compactifications on Calabi-Yau orientifolds remains a key challenge in the search for realistic string vacua. In particular, odd moduli arising from the reduction of 2-forms $(B_2,C_2)$ in type IIB are…
We consider 5d Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with a compact ADE-type gauge group $G$ and one adjoint scalar field on $\mathbb{R}^{3,1}\times\mathbb{R}_+$, where $\mathbb{R}_+=[0,\infty)$ is the half-line. The maximally supersymmetric extension of…
This paper proposes a concrete model of nonuniversal gaugino masses on the basis of higher-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories compactified on a magnetized factorizable torus, and we estimate the gauge coupling constants and…
Some non perturbative aspects of the pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory are investigated assuming a specific form of the beta function, based on a recent modification by Ryttov and Sannino of the known one for supersymmetric gauge theories. The…
The magnitude of the flux superpotential $W_{flux}$ plays a crucial role in determining the scales of IIB string compactifications after moduli stabilisation. It has been argued that values of $W_{flux}$ much less than one are preferred,…
In this thesis we have explored some of the phenomenological aspects of warped/flat extra dimensional theories and their interface with supersymmetry. We study the numerical impact of compactified warped extra dimension on the processes gg…
One of the much-debated novel features of theories with extra dimensions is the presence of power-like loop corrections to gauge coupling unification, which have the potential of allowing a significant reduction of the unification scale. A…
We derive general low energy dynamics of monopoles and dyons in N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories by utilising a collective coordinate expansion. The resulting new kind of supersymmetric quantum mechanics incorporates the…
We study the large volume limit of the scalar potential in Calabi-Yau flux compactifications of type IIB string theory. Under general circumstances there exists a limit in which the potential approaches zero from below, with an associated…
We consider the off-shell formulation of the 5D, $ {\cal N}$=1 super Yang-Mills and super Chern-Simons theories in harmonic superspace. Using such a formulation we develop a manifestly supersymmetric and gauge invariant approach to…
Applying the equations of motion together with corresponding boundary conditions of bulk profiles at infrared and ultraviolet branes, we verify some lemmas on the eigenvalues of Kaluze-Klein modes in framework of warped extra dimension with…
We study the gauge symmetry breaking of an ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory defined on $M^4\times S^1$, taking correctly account of the vacuum expectation values for the adjoint scalar field $\vev{\Sigma}$ in vector multiplet…
We compute the effective potential of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory using the background field method and the Faddeev-Niemi decomposition of the gauge fields. In particular, we find that the potential will depend on the values of two scalar…
The $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory compactified on $\mathbb{R}^3 \times S^1_L$ with small $L$ has many merits, for example the long range effective theory is weakly coupled and adopts rich topological structures, making it semi-classically…
We calculate the one loop effective potential for a 5D SU(2) gauge field theory at finite temperature $T=1/\beta$ and radius R=1/M. This calculation is performed, for the first time, in the case of background fields with two constant…
We review the equivalence of two approaches to study theories with gauge fields in extra spatial dimensions, namely the ``4D'' approach (with KK states) and the ``5D'' approach (with matching to the 4D theory at the compactification scale).…
We study ten-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills model with the space of extra dimensions being a non-symmetric homogeneous space with the invariant metric parametrized by two scales. Dimensional reduction of the model is carried out and the…
We construct super-Yang-Mills theories on S4 x R, S4 x S1 and S4 x interval with the field content of maximal SYM, coupled to boundary degrees in the last case. These theories provide building blocks of the `5d uplifts' of gauge theories on…
We examine the mechanism of moduli stabilization by fluxes in the limit of a large number of moduli. We conjecture that one cannot stabilize all complex-structure moduli in F-theory at a generic point in moduli space (away from…
