4 Lagrange Multipliers and Couplings in Supersymmetric Field Theory

چکیده
In hep-th/0312098 it was argued that by extending the “a-maximization” of hepth/0304128 away from fixed points of the renormalization group, one can compute the anomalous dimensions of chiral superfields along the flow, and obtain a better understanding of the irreversibility of RG flow in four dimensional supersymmetric field theory. According to this proposal, the role of the running couplings is played by certain Lagrange multipliers that are introduced in the construction. We show that one can choose a parametrization of the space of couplings in which the Lagrange multipliers can indeed be identified with the couplings, and discuss the consequences of this for weakly coupled gauge theory.

Auxiliary Field Methods in Supersymmetric Nonlinear Sigma Models
Auxiliary field methods in D = 2 (or 3), N = 2 supersymmetric (SUSY) nonlinear sigma models (NLσMs) are studied. For these models auxiliary fields as Lagrange multipliers belong to a vector or a chiral superfield, which gives a Kähler quotient of complexified gauge group or a holomorphic constraint on it, respectively. Using these, NLσMs on all Hermitian symmetric spaces were formulated previou...
متن کاملHolonomic Constraints : an Analytical Result
Systems subjected to holonomic constraints follow quite complicated dynamics that could not be described easily with Hamiltonian or Lagrangian dynamics. The influence of holonomic constraints in equations of motions is taken into account by using Lagrange multipliers. Finding the value of the Lagrange multipliers allows to compute the forces induced by the constraints and therefore, to integrat...

This paper presents the dynamic modeling and design of micro motion compliant parallel mechanism with flexible intermediate links and rigid moving platform. Modeling of mechanism is described with closed kinematic loops and the dynamic equations are derived using Lagrange multipliers and Kane’s methods. Euler-Bernoulli beam theory is considered for modeling the intermediate flexible link. Based...
متن کاملField Dependent Gauge Couplings in Locally Supersymmetric Effective Quantum Field Theories ⋆
We investigate the field dependence of the gauge couplings of locally supersymmetric effective quantum field theories. We find that the Weyl rescaling of supergravity gives rise to Wess-Zumino terms that affect the gauge couplings at the one-loop level. These Wess-Zumino terms are crucial in assuring supersymmetric consistency of both perturbative and non-perturbative gauge interactions. At the...
