On the global structure of deformed Yang-Mills theory and QCD(adj) on R-3 x S-1

Spatial compactification on R(3)xS(L)(1), at small S-1-size L often leads to a calculable vacuum structure, where various "topological molecules" are responsible for confinement and the realization of the center and discrete chiral symmetries. Within this ...

The renormalon diagram in gauge theories on R-3 x S-1

We analyze the renormalon diagram of gauge theories on . In particular, we perform exact one loop calculations for the vacuum polarization in QCD with adjoint matter and observe that all infrared logarithms, as functions of the external momentum, cancel be ...

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 ...

Scalar masses in general N=2 gauged supergravity theories

Claudio Scrucca, Paul Smyth, Francesca Catino

We readdress the question of whether any universal upper bound exists on the square mass m(2) of the lightest scalar around a supersymmetry breaking vacuum in generic N=2 gauged supergravity theories for a given gravitino mass m(3/2) and cosmological const ...

(Re-)inventing the relativistic wheel: gravity, cosets, and spinning objects

Alexander Monin, Francesco Riva, Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

Space-time symmetries are a crucial ingredient of any theoretical model in physics. Unlike internal symmetries, which may or may not be gauged and/or spontaneously broken, space-time symmetries do not admit any ambiguity: they are gauged by gravity, and an ...

Ultraviolet completion without symmetry restoration

Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

We show that it is not possible to UV complete certain low-energy effective theories with spontaneously broken spacetime symmetries by embedding them into linear sigma models, that is, by adding "radial" modes and restoring the broken symmetries. When such ...

More on cosmological constraints on spontaneous R-symmetry breaking models

Kohei Kamada

We study the spontaneous R-symmetry breaking model and investigate the cosmological constraints on this model due to the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson, R-axion. We consider the R-axion which has relatively heavy mass in order to complement our previous work ...

Metastable spontaneous breaking of N=2 supersymmetry

Claudio Scrucca, Paul Smyth, Benoît Légeret

We show that contrary to the common lore it is possible to spontaneously break N = 2 supersymmetry even in simple theories without constant Fayet-Iliopoulos terms. We consider the most general N = 2 supersymmetric theory with one hypermultiplet and one vec ...

Spontaneously broken scale invariance and minimal fields of canonical dimensionality

Alexander Monin

We address the question whether a scale invariant theory can contain interacting minimal fields of canonical dimensionality. It is known that the answer to this question is negative provided the scale symmetry is respected by the ground state. We present a ...

A naturally light dilaton

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Paolo Lodone, Lorenzo Vitale

Goldstone's theorem does not apply straightforwardly to the case of spontaneously broken scale invariance. We elucidate under what conditions a light scalar degree of freedom, identifiable with the dilaton, can naturally arise. Our construction can be cons ...
