Effective gauge symmetry in supersymmetric confining theories

Эффективная калибровочная симметрия в суперсимметричных удерживаших теориях

Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

The role played by composite vector supermultiplets is studied in detail in the context of general supersymmetric confining theories. The structure of the low-energy effective action involving these vector supermultiplets is determined by use of the chiral WT identities. One of the most interesting outcome is the universal appearance of an effective gauge symmetry structure. Another is the emergence of a generationlike structure among the composite « matter » multiplets under this effective gauge symmetry.

Riassunto

Si studia in dettaglio il ruolo che i supermultipletti vettoriali composti hanno nell’ambito delle teorie supersimmetriche confinanti. Usando le identità chirali di WT, si determina la struttura della lagrangiana effettiva a bassa energia, che contiene questi supermultipletti vettoriali. Il fatto che generalmente appare una struttura di simmetria di gauge effettiva è uno dei risultati piú interessanti. Un altro è che tra i campi composti di materia, che sono multipletti della simmetria di gauge effettiva, emerge una struttura tipo generazioni.

Реэюме

В рамках обших суперсимметричных удерживаюших теорий подробно исследуется роль составных векторных супермультиплетов. Испольэуя киральные WТ-тождества, определяется структура ниэкознергетическо го действия, которое включает зти векторные супермультиплеты. Один иэ наиболее интересных реэультатов — зто универсальное появление зффективной калибровочно-симмет ричной структуры. Другой реэультат — зто воэникновение структуры типа раэмножения между составными мультиплетами « вешества », при условии зффективной калибровочной симметрии.
