Why Auxiliary Fields Matter : The Strange Case of the 4 D , N = 1 Supersymmetric QCD Effective Action
نویسنده
چکیده
Within a four dimensional manifestly N = 1 supersymmetric action, we show that Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) terms can be embedded in an extraordinarily simple manner into a purely chiral superaction. In order to achieve this result it is necessary to assign spin-0 and spin-1/2 degrees of freedom both to chiral superfields and as well to non-minimal scalar multiplets. We propose a new formulation for the effective low-energy action of 4D, N = 1 supersymmetric QCD that is consistent with holomorphy through fourth order in the pion superfield. After reduction to a 2D, N = 2 theory we find a new class of manifestly supersymmetric non-linear σ-models with torsion.

Why Auxiliary Fields Matter : The Strange Case of the 4 D , N = 1 Supersymmetric QCD Effective Action
Within a four dimensional N = 1 superspace, we present a new ansatz for the Skyrme term and for the gauged WZNW term embedded into a su-peraction. We use the new chiral-nonminimal (CNM) formulation for the effective low-energy action of 4D, N = 1 supersymmetric QCD constructed by assigning right-handed components of Dirac fields to chiral multiplets and left-handed components of Dirac fields to...
متن کاملBrst Exact Action for N=1, D=4 Supersymmetric Yang-mills Theory
The action for classical and consequently quantum N=1, D=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is proven to be written as a BRST exact term. In order to show this, the space of fields in the theory must be enlarged to include an extrafield as a non dynamical auxiliary field.
متن کاملHigher-Derivative Terms in N=2 Supersymmetric Effective Actions
We show how to systematically construct higher-derivative terms in effective actions in harmonic superspace despite the infinite redundancy in their description due to the infinite number of auxiliary fields. Making an assumption about the absence of certain superspace Chern-Simons-like terms involving vector multiplets, we write all 3and 4-derivative terms on Higgs, Coulomb, and mixed branches...
متن کاملFinite temperature transitions in lattice QCD with Wilson quarks: Chiral transitions and the influence of the strange quark.
The nature of finite temperature transitions in lattice QCD with Wilson quarks is studied near the chiral limit for the cases of 2, 3, and 6 flavors of degenerate quarks (N F = 2, 3, and 6) and also for the case of massless up and down quarks and a light strange quark (N F = 2+1). Our simulations mainly performed on lattices with the temporal direction extension N t = 4 indicate that the finite...
متن کاملThe Supersymmetric Wess - Zumino Action and U ( 1 ) Gauge Fields
The supersymmetric effective action is constructed which when varied _ under gauge groups containing explicit U(1) factors reproduces the mixed gauge field contribution to the SU(N) anomaly while being U(1) invariant. It constitutes a generalization of the supersymmetric Wess-Zumino action. The form of the supersymmetric mixed anomaly is also discussed. Submitted to Physics Letters * Work suppo...
