Self-Consistent Sources and Conservation Laws for a Super Broer-Kaup-Kupershmidt Equation Hierarchy

Based on the matrix Lie superalgebras and supertrace identity, the integrable super Broer-Kaup-Kupershmidt hierarchy with self-consistent sources is established. Furthermore, we establish the infinitely many conservation laws for the integrable super Broer-Kaup-Kupershmidt hierarchy. In the process of computation especially, Fermi variables also play an important role in super integrable systems

A Integrable Generalized Super-NLS-mKdV Hierarchy, Its Self-Consistent Sources, and Conservation Laws

A generalized super-NLS-mKdV hierarchy is proposed related to Lie superalgebra B(0,1); the resulting supersoliton hierarchy is put into super bi-Hamiltonian form with the aid of supertrace identity. Then, the super-NLS-mKdV hierarchy with self-consistent sources is set up. Finally, the infinitely many conservation laws of integrable super-NLS-mKdV hierarchy are presented

Exact Solution of Quantum Field Theory on Noncommutative Phase Spaces

We present the exact solution of a scalar field theory defined with noncommuting position and momentum variables. The model describes charged particles in a uniform magnetic field and with an interaction defined by the Groenewold-Moyal star-product. Explicit results are presented for all Green's functions in arbitrary even spacetime dimensionality. Various scaling limits of the field theory are analysed non-perturbatively and the renormalizability of each limit examined. A supersymmetric extension of the field theory is also constructed in which the supersymmetry transformations are parametrized by differential operators in an infinite-dimensional noncommutative algebra.Comment: 70 pages AMSTe

Solitons, monopoles and duality: from sine-Gordon to Seiberg-Witten

An elementary introduction into the Seiberg-Witten theory is given. Many efforts are made to get it as pedagogical as possible, within a reasonable size. The selection of the relevant material is heavily oriented towards graduate students. The basic ideas about solitons, monopoles, supersymmetry and duality are reviewed from first principles, and they are illustrated on the simplest examples. The exact Seiberg-Witten solution to the low-energy effective action of the four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric pure Yang-Mills theory with the gauge group SU(2) is the main subject of the review. Other gauge groups are also considered. Some related issues (like adding matter, confinement, string dualities) are outlined.Comment: 72 pages, LaTeX, macros included, a few references adde

Soft branes in supersymmetry-breaking backgrounds

We revisit the analysis of effective field theories resulting from non-supersymmetric perturbations to supersymmetric flux compactifications of the type-IIB superstring with an eye towards those resulting from the backreaction of a small number of anti-D3-branes. Independently of the background, we show that the low-energy Lagrangian describing the fluctuations of a stack of probe D3-branes exhibits soft supersymmetry breaking, despite perturbations to marginal operators that were not fully considered in some previous treatments. We take this as an indication that the breaking of supersymmetry by anti-D3-branes or other sources may be spontaneous rather than explicit. In support of this, we consider the action of an anti-D3-brane probing an otherwise supersymmetric configuration and identify a candidate for the corresponding goldstino.Comment: 36+5 pages.
