Conformal Transformation Properties of the Supercurrent in Four Dimensional Supersymmetric Theories
We investigate the superconformal transformation properties of Green functions with one or more insertions of the supercurrent in N = 1 supersymmetric quantum field theories. These Green functions are conveniently obtained by coupling the supercurrent and its trace to a classical supergravity background. We derive flat space superconformal Ward identities from diffeomorphisms and Weyl transform...
متن کاملConformal Transformation Properties of the B-type Supercurrent
We investigate the superconformal transformation properties of the supercurrent as well as of the superconformal anomalies themselves in d = 4, N = 1 supersymmetric quantum field theory. Matter supercurrent and anomalies are coupled to a classical background of minimal supergravity fields. On flat superspace, there exist two different types of the superconformal Ward identity (called S and B) w...
متن کاملSuperconformal Transformation Properties of the Supercurrent II: Abelian Gauge Theories
We derive the superconformal transformation properties of the supercurrent for N = 1 supersymmetric QED in four dimensions within the superfield formalism. Superconformal Ward identities for Green functions involving insertions of the supercurrent are conveniently derived by coupling the supercurrent to the appropriate prepotential of a classical curved superspace background, and by combining s...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Index In Four-Dimensional Gauge Theories
This paper is devoted to a systematic discussion of the supersymmetric index Tr (−1) for the minimal supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory – with any simple gauge group G – primarily in four spacetime dimensions. The index has refinements that probe confinement and oblique confinement and the possible spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry and of global symmetries, such as charge conjugation, that ...
متن کاملTwo–dimensional fractional supersymmetric conformal- and logarithmic conformal- field theories and the two point functions
A general two–dimensional fractional supersymmetric conformal field theory is investigated. The structure of the symmetries of the theory is studied. Applying the generators of the closed subalgebra generated by (L −1, L0, G−1/(F+1)) and (L̄−1, L̄0, Ḡ−1/(F+1)), the two point functions of the component–fields of supermultiplets are calculated. Then the logarithmic superconformal field theories are...
