Quantum field components of supersymmetric multiplets

چکیده
We adress the problem of Fock space representations of (free) multiplet component fiels encountered in supersymmetric quantum field theory insisting on positivity and causality. We look in detail on the scalar and Majorana components of the chiral supersymmetric multiplet. Several Fock space representations are introduced. The last section contains a short application to the supersymmetric EpsteinGlaser method. The present paper is written in the vane of axiomatic quantum field theory with applications to the causal approach to supersymmetry.

Topological Matter in Two Dimensions
Topological quantum field theories containing matter fields are constructed by twisting N = 2 supersymmetric quantum field theories. It is shown that N = 2 chiral (antichiral) multiplets lead to topological sigma models while N = 2 twisted chiral (twisted antichiral) multiplets lead to Landau-Ginzburg type topological quantum field theories. In addition, topological gravity in two dimensions is...
متن کاملTopological Qcd
We study the twisted N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory coupled with the hyper-multiplets (TQCD). We suggest that the family of TQCD can be served as a powerful tool for studying the quantum field theoretic properties of the underlying physical theories.
متن کاملBerry Phase and Supersymmetry
We study the constraints of supersymmetry on the non-Abelian holonomy given by U = P exp(i ∫ A), the path-ordered exponential of a connection A. For theories with four supercharges, we show that A satisfies the tt* equations if it is a function of chiral multiplets. In contrast, when A is a function of vector multiplets, it satisfies the Bogomolnyi monopole equations. We describe applications o...
متن کاملA Note on Superfields and Noncommutative Geometry
We consider the supersymmetric field theories on the noncommutative R using the superspace formalism on the commutative space. The terms depending on the parameter of the noncommutativity Θ are regarded as the interactions. In this way we construct the N = 1 supersymmetric action for the U(N) vector multiplets and chiral multiplets of the fundamental, anti-fundamental and adjoint representation...
متن کاملSupersymmetry with Gauged Central Charge
We develop a general setting for N = 2 rigid supersymmetric field theories with gauged central charge in harmonic superspace. We consider those N = 2 multiplets which have a finite number of off-shell components and exist off shell owing to a non-trivial central charge. This class includes, in particular, the hypermultiplet with central charge and various versions of the vector-tensor multiplet...
