Modular symmetry of soft supersymmetry breaking terms [PDF]
We study the modular symmetry of soft supersymmetry breaking terms. Soft scalar masses and A-term coefficients are invariant under the modular symmetry when we regard F-term as a spurion with the modular weight −2.

A microscopic model for inflation from supersymmetry breaking [PDF]
We have proposed recently a framework for inflation driven by supersymmetry breaking with the inflaton being a superpartner of the goldstino, that avoids the main problems of supergravity inflation, allowing for: naturally small slow-roll parameters ...

UNUSUAL HIGGS OR SUPERSYMMETRY FROM NATURAL ELECTROWEAK SYMMETRY BREAKING [PDF]
This review provides an elementary discussion of electroweak symmetry breaking in the minimal and the next-to-minimal supersymmetric models with the focus on the fine-tuning problem — the tension between natural electroweak symmetry breaking and the ...

Electroweak symmetry breaking from supersymmetry breaking with a bosonic seesaw mechanism [PDF]
We introduce the idea of bosonic seesaw mechanism in analogy with the seesaw mechanism. Bosonic seesaw is a new symmetry breaking mechanism, and we apply it to explain electroweak symmetry breaking as an inevitable consequence of supersymmetry breaking ...

Algebraic Topology Foundations of Supersymmetry and Symmetry Breaking in Quantum Field Theory and Quantum Gravity: A Review [PDF]
A novel algebraic topology approach to supersymmetry (SUSY) and symmet- ry breaking in quantum field and quantum gravity theories is presented with a view to developing a wide range of physical applications.

Supersymmetry breaking, R-symmetry breaking and metastable vacua [PDF]
Models of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking generically have an R-symmetry, which is problematic for obtaining gaugino masses and avoiding light R-axions.

Supersymmetry breaking in disordered systems and relation to functional renormalization and replica-symmetry breaking [PDF]
In this article, we study an elastic manifold in quenched disorder in the limit of zero temperature. Naively it is equivalent to a free theory with elasticity in Fourier space proportional to k4 instead of k2, i.e.

Complex Langevin Study of Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in IKKT Matrix Model [PDF]
The IKKT matrix model, in the large- 𝑁 limit, is conjectured to be a non-perturbative definition of the ten-dimensional type IIB superstring theory. In this work, we investigate the possibility of spontaneous breaking of the ten-dimensional rotational ...

A 4D IIB flux vacuum and supersymmetry breaking. Part I. Fermionic spectrum [PDF]
We consider the type-IIB supergravity vacua that include an internal T5, depend on a single coordinate r and respect a four-dimensional Poincaré symmetry, with the aim of highlighting low-energy spectra with broken supersymmetry and a bounded string ...
