We discuss some issues related to the definition of different effective actions, in connection with the work on supersymmetric theories by Seiberg and collaborators. We also comment on the possibility of extending this work to broken…
Review of the theory of effective actions and the hypothetical origins of integrability in Seiberg-Witten theory.
Gauging a discrete 0-form symmetry of a QFT is a procedure that changes the global form of the gauge group but not its perturbative dynamics. In this work, we study the Seiberg-Witten solution of theories resulting from the gauging of…
We compute the supersymmetric contributions to the weak charges of the electron and proton in the framework of Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We also consider the ratio of neutral current to charged current cross sections, R_nu and…
Supercapacitors are increasingly used as energy storage elements. Unlike batteries, their state of charge has a considerable influence on their voltage in normal operation, allowing them to work from zero to their maximum voltage. In this…
We briefly review the Whitham hierarchies and their applications to integrable systems of the Seiberg-Witten type. The simplest example of the N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) pure gauge theory is considered in detail and the corresponding Whitham…
This paper addresses an issue essential to the study of hidden supersymmetries (meaning here ones that do not close on the Hamiltonian) for one-dimensional non-linear supersymmetric sigma models. The issue relates to ambiguities, due to…
We continue our study of nonperturbative superpotentials of four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories with gauge group U(N) on R^3 x S^1, broken to N=1 due to a classical superpotential. In a previous paper, hep-th/0304061, we…
We compute the one-loop holomorphic effective action of the massless Cartan sector of N=2 SYM theory in the Coulomb branch, taking into account the contributions both from the charged hypermultiplets and off-diagonal components of the gauge…
The present work provides one more evidence of that the solar neutrino problem has an elegant solution based on the hypothesis about the existence of a new, semi-weak, interaction. The analysis of the deuteron disintegration by neutral…
The superspace Lagrangian formulation of N=1 supersymmetric quantum mechanics is presented. The general Lagrangian constructed out of chiral and antichiral supercoordinates containing up to two derivatives and with a canonically normalized…
We give an off-shell formulation of the N=2 supersymmetric new nonlinear vector-tensor multiplet. Interactions arise in this model as a consequence of gauging the central charge of the supersymmetry algebra, which in contrast to previous…
Straightforward application of the standard Noether method in supergravity theories yields an incorrect superpotential for local supersymmetry transformations, which gives only half of the correct supercharge. We show how to derive the…
For nonsupersymmetric theories, the one-loop effective action can be computed via zeta function regularization in terms of the functional trace of the heat kernel associated with the operator which appears in the quadratic part of the…
We gauge the central charge of the N=2 supersymmetry algebra in rigid superspace. The Fayet Sohnius hypermultiplet with gauged central charge coincides on-shell with N=2 supersymmetric electrodynamics. The gauge couplings of the…
We propose a highly efficient thermoelectric diode device built from the coupling of a quantum dot with a normal or ferromagnetic electrode and a superconducting reservoir. The current shows a strongly nonlinear behavior in the forward…
The superconformal central charge is an important quantity for theories emerging from string theory geometrical implementation of Quantum Field Theory since it is linked, for example, to the scaling dimension of fields. Butti and Zaffaroni…
Some general aspects of supersymmetry and supergravity are briefly reviewed with emphasis on Noether supercurrents and their role in the discussion of supersymmetry breaking.
The derivative Noether currents generated by continuous Moufang tranformations are constructed and their equal-time commutators are found. The corresponding charge algebra turns out to be a birepresentation of the tangent Mal'ltsev algebra…
We review a detailed investigation of the perturbative part of the low-energy effective action of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in a conventional effective field theory approach. With the restriction that the effective action should…
