General covariance and supersymmetry without supersymmetry.
An unusual four-dimensional generally covariant and supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory is described. The theory has local degrees of freedom, and is invariant under a local (left-handed) chiral supersymmetry, which is half the supersymmetry of supergravity. The Hamiltonian 3+1 decomposition of the theory reveals the remarkable feature that the local supersymmetry is a consequence of Yang-Mills s...

An unusual four-dimensional generally covariant and supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory is described. The theory has propagating degrees of freedom, and is invariant under a local (left-handed) chiral supersymmetry, which is half the supersymmetry of supergravity. The Hamiltonian 3+1 decomposition of the theory reveals the remarkable feature that the local supersymmetry is a consequence of Yang-M...
متن کاملSupersymmetry Without Supersymmetry
We present four-dimensional M -theory vacua with N > 0 supersymmetry which, from the perspective of perturbative Type IIA string theory, have N = 0. Such vacua can appear when the compactifying 7-manifold is a U(1) fibration. The missing superpartners are Dirichlet 0-branes. Someone unable to detect Ramond-Ramond charge would thus conclude that these worlds have no unbroken supersymmetry. In pa...
متن کاملSupersymmetry without Supersymmetry
We investigate the possibility that supersymmetry is not a fundamental symmetry of nature, but emerges as an accidental approximate global symmetry at low energies. This can occur if the visible sector is nonsupersymmetric at high scales, but flows toward a strongly-coupled superconformal fixed point at low energies; or, alternatively, if the visible sector is localized near the infrared brane ...
متن کاملYang-Mills and Supersymmetry Covariance Must Coexist
Supersymmetry and Yang-Mills type gauge invariance are two of the essential properties of most, and possibly the most important models in fundamental physics. Supersymmetry is nearly trivial to prove in the (traditionally gauge-noncovariant) superfield formalism, whereas the gauge-covariant formalism makes gauge invariance manifest. In 3+1dimensions, the transformation from one into the other i...
