We show that classical U(infinity) gauge theories can be obtained from the dimensional reduction of a certain class of higher-derivative theories. In general, the exact symmetry is attained in the limit of degenerate metric; otherwise, the…

An exact superpotential is derived for the N=1 theories which arise as massive deformations of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. The superpotential of the SU(N) theory formulated on R^{3}\times S^{1} is shown to coincide with the…

We study gauge theories with N=1 supersymmetry in 2+1 dimensions. We start by calculating the 1-loop effective superpotential for matter in an arbitrary representation. We then restrict ourselves to gauge theories with fundamental matter.…

Gauge theories with and without matter are formulated in the derivative expansion. Amplitudues are derived as a power series in the energy scales; there are simplifications as compared with the usual loop expansion. The incorporation and…

We derive the exact effective superpotential in 4d, N=1 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theories with $N_A$ triplets and $2N_f$ doublets of matter superfields. We find the quantum vacua of these theories; the equations of motion (for $N_A=1$)…

We consider the embedding of the Standard Model fields in a $(4+d)$-dimensional theory while gravitons may propagate in $d'$ extra, compact dimensions. We study the modification of strengths of the gravitational and gauge interactions and,…

We address the question of supersymmetry breaking of a higher dimensional supersymmetric theory due to coset space dimensional reduction. In particular we study a ten-dimensional supersymmetric $E_{8}$ gauge theory which is reduced over all…

It is shown that N=4 gauged supergravity in four dimensions is obtained by compactifying N=1 supergravity in ten dimensions on the group manifold $S^3\times S^3$. This could be further related to supergravity in eleven dimensions. Analysis…

The space of four dimensional string and $M$ theory vacua with non-Abelian gauge symmetry, chiral fermions and unbroken supersymmetry beyond the electroweak scale appears to be a disconnected space whose different components represent…

Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…

The established results concerning the BRS cohomology of supersymmetric theories in four space-time dimensions are briefly reviewed. The current status of knowledge concerning supersymmetry anomalies and the possibility that supersymmetry…

The concept of supersymmetry in a quantum mechanical system is extended, permitting the recognition of many more supersymmetric systems, including very familiar ones such as the free particle. Its spectrum is shown to be supersymmetric,…

We present a review of Witten index calculations in different supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions: supersymmetric electrodynamics, pure N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories and also SYM theories including matter multiplets --…

A formulation of abelian and non-abelian chiral gauge theories is presented together with arguments for the unitarity and renormalisability in four dimensions. IASSNS-HEP-94/70, UM-P-94/96, and RCHEP-94/26.

We study macroscopically two dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric gauge theories constructed by compactifying the quiver gauge theories with eight supercharges on a product $\mathbb{T}^{d} \times \mathbb{R}^{2}_{\epsilon}$ of a…

Dynamical models of inflation are given with composite inflatons by means of massive supersymmetric gauge theory. Nearly flat directions and stable massive ones in the potential are identified and slow-roll during inflation is examined.…

We study the principles of the gauge symmetry and supersymmetry breaking due to the local or global discrete symmetries on the extra space manifold. We show that the gauge symmetry breaking by Wilson line is the special case of the discrete…

Effects of boundary conditions of fields for compactified space directions on the supersymmetric gauge theories are discussed. For general and possible boundary conditions the supersymmetry is explicitly broken to yield universal soft…

We study static, spherically symmetric, and purely magnetic solutions of the N=4 gauged supergravity in four dimensions. A systematic analysis of the supersymmetry conditions reveals solutions which preserve 1/4 of the supersymmetries and…

Renormalization group methods are used to determine the evolution of the low energy Wilson effective action for supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models in four dimensions. For the case of supersymmetric $CP^{(N-1)}$ models, the K\"ahler…
