Chiral SUSY Theories with a Suppressed SUSY Charge

The well-known Chiral and Gauge SUSY Actions realize the SUSY charge in terms of transformations among the Fields. These transformations are included in the Master Equation by coupling them to Sources. Here we show that there are new local SUSY Actions where the Chiral SUSY transformations are realized in terms of transformations among both Fields and Sources. These Actions can be easily obtained from the Chiral case by a very simple and local `Exchange Transformation', which carries along all the interactions without difficulty. For these new SUSY Actions, the SUSY charge does not exist in the relevant sector, because Sources do not satisfy Equations of Motion. Nevertheless, the `Exchange Transformation' ensures that the new Master Equation is true for the new Action. As a consequence, the Master Equation also is true for the new 1PI Generating Functional. This implies that a `Suppressed SUSY Charge' version of SUSY is still present. SUSY certainly becomes more obscure and less constrained in this case. But it is still very restrictive. The new theories can be obtained from the old theories by using a special technique, but it is not true that they are a sort of `broken version of supersymmetry'. They are simply a new type of theory that is governed by Supersymmetry, but without the use of Supercharges (except perhaps in some sectors). In particular the number of physical Bosonic and Fermionic degrees of Freedom are not equal for these new (sub)-Actions, although there is still Boson/Fermion mass degeneracy in a (sub)-Action, so long as there is still a Boson present. Notably, there is even a SUSY (sub)-Action where the physical Scalars are not present, so that the (sub)-Action contains physical Fermions only. In this theory the degeneracy of Bosonic and Fermionic masses is obviously not present.Comment: 21 pages This version has a better explanation of how and why these new representations of SUSY can and do exist, without contradicting the known results in SUSY theor

An Irreducible Massive Superspin One Half Action Built From the Chiral Dotted Spinor Superfield

Although the chiral dotted spinor superfield should describe a Massive Superspin One Half multiplet, it has not been obvious how to derive this from an action. In this paper this is done by including a chiral undotted spinor superfield, finding the BRST transformations that govern both of these, and then finding the action as an invariant of the transformations. It turns out that both kinds of spinor superfields are needed. Moreover, the BRST transformations for the two kinds of chiral spinor superfields are generated from each other by a special involution that exchanges Grassmann odd (even) sources with Grassmann even (odd) fields.Comment: 13 page
