Spin supplementary condition in quantum field theory: covariant SSC and physical state projection
The spin supplementary conditions are constraints on spin degrees of freedom in classical relativity which restricts physical degrees of freedom to rotations.

Instanton effects in supersymmetric theories
Abstract We calculate some simplest n-point functions in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories contributed by instantons. The result is not vanishing and we discuss some implications of this. In particular, the dynamics of the supersymmetric theories must exhibit some unusual features.

Ghost-free vector superfield actions in supersymmetric higher-derivative theories
We systematically construct ghost-free higher-derivative actions of Abelian vector supermultiplets in four-dimensional N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ global supersymmetric theories.

One-loop effective potential in nonlocal supersymmetric theories [PDF]
Within the superfield approach, we consider the nonlocal generalization of the Wess-Zumino model and calculate the one-loop low-energy contributions to the effective action. Four different nonlocal models are considered, among which only the first model does not reduce to the standard Wess-Zumino model when we take the parameter of nonlocality of the ...

Curvature squared action in four dimensional N = 2 supergravity using the dilaton Weyl multiplet
In this paper we derive the most general curvature squared action coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets in four dimensional N = 2 supergravity using the dilaton Weyl multiplet.

ON THE DETERMINATION OF EFFECTIVE POTENTIALS IN SUPERSYMMETRIC THEORIES [PDF]
Abstract We propose a renormalization procedure for dynamically generated effective actions. We show that, as expected, it leads to no spontaneous supersymmetry breaking if this is unbroken at the tree level. We also understand why the usually adopted renormalization prescription has led in some models to an apparent supersymmetry breaking for an ...

Circumnavigating collinear superspace
In this paper, we extend the collinear superspace formalism to include the full range of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric interactions. Building on the effective field theory rules developed in a companion paper — Navigating Collinear Superspace [1]

Navigating collinear superspace
We introduce a new set of effective field theory rules for constructing Lagrangians with N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetry in collinear superspace. In the standard superspace treatment, superfields are functions of the coordinates x μ θ α θ † α ⋅ $$ \

Ghostbusters: unitarity and causality of non-equilibrium effective field theories
: For a non-equilibrium physical system defined along a closed time path (CTP), a key constraint is the so-called largest time equation, which is a consequence of unitarity and implies causality.
