Supersymmetric transformations of real potentials on the line

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic study of supersymmetric (or Darboux) factorizations on the line is performed, where all possible pairs of super-symmetric transformations with the same factorization energy are reviewed; for such pairs, there is no condition on this energy.

Searches for pair production of third-generation squarks in root s=13 TeV pp collisions

Albert M. Sirunyan, +2221 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two searches are performed in all-jet final states that are characterized by a significant imbalance in transverse momentum, and an additional search requires the presence of a charged lepton isolated from other activity in the event.

Ultraviolet behavior of 6D supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories and harmonic superspace

TL;DR: In this paper, the issue of higher-dimensional counterterms for the N=(1,1) supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory in six dimensions was revisited using the off-shell and on-shell harmonic superspace approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low-energy brane-world effective actions and partial supersymmetry breaking

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider three explicit realizations of this supersymmetry breaking pattern, which correspond to breaking by one brane, by one antibrane or by two (or more) parallel branes.

D-module Representations of N=2,4,8 Superconformal Algebras and Their Superconformal Mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, a Lagrangian framework is proposed to construct one-dimensional, off-shell, superconformal invariant actions from single-particle and multi-particles D-module representations.

A new proof of the positive energy theorem

TL;DR: In this article, a new proof of the positive energy theorem of classical general relativity was given and it was shown that there are no asymptotically Euclidean gravitational instantons.

Recent Developments in Gauge Theories

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of recent developments on non-perturbative gauge fields by some of the leading experts and innovators in this field, including the Cargese Institute on "Recent Developments on Gauge Theories".

Chiral-symmetry breakdown in large-N chromodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in the limit of a large number of colors, under reasonable assumptions, this symmetry group must spontaneously break down to diagonal σ(n) under chiral conditions.

On constrained instantons

TL;DR: In this article, a simple method is presented for doing systematic constrained instanton calculations in models such as φ4 or Higgs theories where the presence of a mass term prevents the existence of a classical solution.
