Ghostbusters in f (R) supergravity

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
f (R) supergravity is known to contain a ghost mode associated with higher-derivative terms if it contains R n with n greater than two. We remove the ghost in f (R) supergravity by introducing auxiliary gauge field to absorb the ghost. We dub this method

Taking limits in topological recursion

Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 112, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract When does topological recursion applied to a family of spectral curves commute with taking limits? This problem is subtle, especially when the ramification structure of the spectral curve changes at the limit point. We provide sufficient (straightforward‐to‐use) conditions for checking when the commutation with limits holds, thereby closing a ...

The action of long strings in supersymmetric field theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Long strings emerge in many Quantum Field Theories, for example as vortices in Abelian Higgs theories, or flux tubes in Yang-Mills theories. The actions of such objects can be expanded in the number of derivatives, around a long straight string solution.

Swampland geometry and the gauge couplings

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First we review in detail the geometric aspects of the swampland program for supersymmetric 4d effective theories using a new and unifying language we dub “domestic geometry”, the generalization of special Kähler ...

Effective potentials for a class of supersymmetric theories

Physics Letters B, 1982
Abstract We compute one- and two-loop corrections to the effective potential for a class of models in which supersymmetry is spontaneously broken in an O'Raifeartaigh model.

Modeling General Asymptotic Calabi–Yau Periods

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract In the quest to uncovering the fundamental structures that underlie some of the asymptotic Swampland conjectures the authors initiate the general study of asymptotic period vectors of Calabi–Yau manifolds. The strategy is to exploit the constraints imposed by completeness, symmetry, and positivity, which are formalized in asymptotic Hodge ...

Non-factorizable superamplitudes for massive N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 superstates

Journal of High Energy Physics
In this paper we study non-factorizable N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 superamplitudes for massive chiral superstates. We demonstrate how little group scaling and the supersymmetric Ward identities determine the form of non-factorizable massless superamplitudes,

From linear to non-linear SUSY and back again

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We show that couplings of the goldstino field, appearing when global supersymmetry is broken, can always be described in superspace by means of a nilpotent chiral superfield X, satisfying X 2 = 0.

Vacuum Stability in Supersymmetric Effective Theories

, 2011
The main topics discussed in this thesis are supersymmetric low-energy effective theories and metastability conditions in generic non-renormalizable models with global and local supersymmetry. In the first part we discuss the conditions under which the low-energy expansion in space-time derivatives preserves supersymmetry implying that heavy multiplets

Quantum versus gravitational effects in supersymmetric theories

Nuclear Physics B, 1983
Abstract We consider what happens when certain globally supersymmetric grand unified models are coupled to N = 1 supergravity. Treating only leading (i.e. tree level) gravitational effects while treating non-gravitational effects to all orders, we show how the original globally supersymmetric theory is recovered as M p → ∞.
