Differential Calculi on h-deformed Bosonic and Fermionic Quantum Planes

We study differential calculus on h-deformed bosonic and fermionic quantum space. It is shown that the fermionic quantum space involves a parafermionic variable as well as a classical fermionic one. Further we construct the classical $su(2)$ algebra on the fermionic quantum space and discuss a mapping between the classical $su(2)$ and the h-deformed $su(2)$ algebras.Comment: 11 pages, KANAZAWA-93-07, LaTeX fil

Zero-modes on orbifolds : magnetized orbifold models by modular transformation

We study $T^2/Z_N$ orbifold models with magnetic fluxes. We propose a systematic way to analyze the number of zero-modes and their wavefunctions by use of modular transformation. Our results are consistent with the previous results, and our approach is more direct and analytical than the previous ones. The index theorem implies that the zero-mode number of the Dirac operator on $T^2$ is equal to the index $M$, which corresponds to the magnetic flux in a certain unit. Our results show that the zero-mode number of the Dirac operator on $T^2/Z_N$ is equal to $\lfloor M/N \rfloor +1$ except one case on the $T^2/Z_3$ orbifold.Comment: 30 page

Kaluza-Klein Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking

We discuss a framework for communicating supersymmetry breaking to the visible sector where the radius modulus, which determines the size of extra dimensions, has an auxiliary vacuum expectation value. The modulus couplings generate mass splitting in Kaluza-Klein supermultiplets and they act as messengers of supersymmetry breaking. The soft masses are expressed in terms of renormalization-group functions and the sparticle spectrum is determined by what kind of field propagates in the bulk. This framework also provides new possibilities for solving the supersymmetric flavor problem.Comment: 10 page

Massive modes in magnetized brane models

We study higher dimensional models with magnetic fluxes, which can be derived from superstring theory. We study mass spectrum and wavefunctions of massless and massive modes for spinor, scalar and vector fields. We compute the 3-point couplings and higher order couplings among massless modes and massive modes in 4D low-energy effective field theory. These couplings have non-trivial behaviors, because wavefunctions of massless and massive modes are non-trivial.Comment: 21 page

More about Kaluza-Klein Regularization

We study the so-called ``Kaluza-Klein regularization''. We calculate one-loop corrections to the Higgs mass due to Kaluza-Klein modes explicitly in a model with SUSY breaking mass splitting between bosonic and fermionic modes. We perform the proper time cutoff at $1/\Lambda^2$ and the KK level truncation at $\ell$. It is shown that the finite result is obtained as long as $\ell \gg R\Lambda$ for the compactification radius $R$.Comment: 9 pages, latex, 2 figure
