Superspace formulation of the local RG equation

We present the superspace formulation of the local RG equation, a framework for the study of supersymmetric RG flows in which the constraints of holomorphy and R-symmetry are manifest. We derive the consistency conditions associated with super-Weyl symmetr ...

The local Callan-Symanzik equation: structure and applications

Riccardo Rattazzi, Boaz Keren Zur, Lorenzo Vitale, Florent Baume

The local Callan-Symanzik equation describes the response of a quantum field theory to local scale transformations in the presence of background sources. The consistency conditions associated with this anomalous equation imply non-trivial relations among t ...

The local RG equation and chiral anomalies

Boaz Keren Zur

We generalize the local renormalization group (RG) equation to theories with chiral anomalies. We find that a new anomaly is required by the Wess-Zumino consistency conditions. Taking into account the new anomaly, the trace of the energy momentum tensor is ...

On Partial Compositeness and the CP asymmetry in charm decays

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Luca Vecchi, Paolo Lodone, Boaz Keren Zur

Recently, the LHCb and CDF Collaborations reported the measure of an unexpectedly large direct CP asymmetry in D meson decays. In this paper we ask if new physics associated with Partial Compositeness could plausibly explain this result. We find that Compo ...

The dilaton Wess-Zumino action in higher dimensions

Boaz Keren Zur, Florent Baume

We present a general formula for the Wess-Zumino action associated with the Weyl anomaly, given in a curved background for any even number of dimensions. The result is obtained by considering a finite Weyl transformation of counterterms in dimensional regu ...

Supersymmetric sound in fluids

Boaz Keren Zur

We consider the hydrodynamics of supersymmetric fluids. Supersymmetry is broken spontaneously and the low energy spectrum includes a fermionic massless mode, the phonino. We use two complementary approaches to describe the system: First, we construct a gen ...
