Consistency of String Theory No SUSY has been discovered at low energy. Spontaneously Breaking of Supersymmetry

4 How to Break SUSY Hamiltonian : H = ω 2 {Q a,q a} 0 H 0 = a 0 Q2 a 0 = 0 = a Q a 0 2 SUSY Limit : Q a 0 = 0 E = 0 UNLIKE GAUGE SYMMETRY, NON-ZERO VEV MAY NOT BREAKING SUSY Sufficient: Positive Vacuum Energy Witten Index Tr( 1) F = n 0 B n0 F, n: # of zero energy state

5 V = a F a 2 + g2 2 D2 V 0 : F a 0 or D 0 F a = W/ φ a ; D = ( a q a φ a 2 ) Moduli Space & Flatness F = 0 or D = 0: a field space solution: Flat Direction Classical Potential: Flat direction Classical Moduli Space D-Flat: Parametrizing (Luty-Taylor, 1996) F-Flat: usual W linear in fields vanish at the origin & infinity at φ Run-away vacuum Non-renormalization Theorem: Flat at the first order Vanish up to All order perturbation Classical Flat directions can only be lifted by Non-perturbative effect

12 Non-perturbative Correction Lift Flat Directions As a result of the Non-renormalization Theorem: Flat at the first order Vanish up to All order perturbation Classical Flat directions can only be lifted by Non-perturbative effect(instanton Generated) t Hooft Anomaly Matching Condition Superpotential: consist of linear forms of the fields Dimensional analysis plus gauge invariance is sufficient to guess the form of superpotential.
