A Statistical Superfield and Its Observable Consequences
نویسنده
چکیده
A new kind of fundamental superfield is proposed, with an Ising-like Euclidean action. Near the Planck energy it undergoes its first stage of symmetry-breaking, and the ordered phase is assumed to support specific kinds of topological defects. This picture leads to a low-energy Lagrangian which is similar to that of standard physics, but there are interesting and observable differences. For example, the cosmological constant vanishes, fermions have an extra coupling to gravity, the gravitational interaction of W-bosons is modified, and Higgs bosons have an unconventional equation of motion. e-mail: [email protected] tel.: (409) 845-4341 fax: (409) 845-2590 International Journal of Modern Physics A, Vol. 12, No. 13 (1997) 2385-2412

Local Superfield Lagrangian BRST Quantization
A θ-local formulation of superfield Lagrangian quantization in non-Abelian hypergauges is proposed on the basis of an extension of general reducible gauge theories to special superfield models with a Grassmann parameter θ. We solve the problem of describing the quantum action and the gauge algebra of an L-stage-reducible superfield model in terms of a BRST charge for a formal dynamical system w...
متن کاملBasic features of General Superfield Quantization Method for gauge theories in Lagrangian formalism
The rules for superfield Lagrangian quantization method for general gauge theories on a basis of their generalization to special superfield models within a so-called θ-superfield theory of fields (θ-STF) are formulated. The θ-superfield generating functionals of Green’s functions together with effective action are constructed. Their properties including new interpretation and superfield realiza...
متن کاملSplit supersymmetry and the role of a light fermion in a supergravity-based scenario
We investigate split supersymmetry (SUSY) within a supergravity framework, where local SUSY is broken by the F-term of a hidden sector chiral superfield X. With reasonably general assumptions, we show that the fermionic component of X will always have mass within a Tev. Though its coupling to the observable sector superfields is highly suppressed in Tev scale SUSY, we show that it can be enhanc...

We present a superspace formulation for super eightbrane theory based on massive type IIA supergravity in ten-dimensions. Remarkably, in addition to the 10-form superfield strength originally needed for super eightbrane, we also need an 'over-ranked' 11-form superfield strength H A 1 ···A 11 with identically vanishing purely bosonic component, in order to satisfy all the Bianchi identities. As ...

Superfield equations of motion for D = 10 type IIB Dirichlet super-9-brane are obtained from the generalized action principle. The geometric equations containing fermionic superembedding equations and constraints on the generalized field strength of Abelian gauge field are separated from the proper dynamical equations and are found to contain these dynamical equations among their consequences. ...
