چکیده
We review the history of non-renormalisation theorems in global supersymmetry, as well as their importance in all attempts to apply supersymmetry to the real world.

The ultra-violet question in maximally supersymmetric field theories
We discuss various approaches to the problem of determining which supersymmetric invariants are permitted as counterterms in maximally supersymmetric super Yang–Mills and supergravity theories in various dimensions. We review the superspace non-renormalisation theorems based on conventional, light-cone, harmonic and certain non-Lorentz covariant superspaces, and we write down explicitly the rel...
متن کاملInstantons and Non-renormalisation in AdS/CFT
The series of perturbative fluctuations around a multi-instanton contribution to a specific class of correlation functions of supercurrents in N = 4 supersymmetric SU(N) Yang–Mills theory is examined in the light of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Subject to certain plausible assumptions, we argue that a given term in the 1/N expansion in such a background receives only a finite number of perturbat...
متن کاملSpontaneous Breaking of Extended Supersymmetry in Global and Local Theories *
We review the " no-go " theorems that severely constrain the breaking of N = 2 supersymmetry to N = 1 (both in rigid supersymmetry and supergravity), and we exhibit some models that evade them.
متن کاملOn the Cohomological Structure of Supersymmetric Lagrangeans With and Without Auxiliary Fields
The origin of non-renormalization theorems in field theories with global supersymmetry can be traced to the fact that supersymmetric actions can be viewed as the highest components of respective supermultiplets. Supersymmetric interactions in particular can therefore be represented as supersymmetry variations of lower dimensional field polynomials. We investigate here this algebraic structure i...
متن کاملR - parity Violation Effects through Soft Supersymmetry Breaking Terms and the Renormalisation Group
We present full renormalisation group equations for the MSSM with R-parity violation, including all soft supersymmetry breaking terms. The inclusion of dimensionless R-parity violating couplings can generate many possible low energy effects through the generation of off-diagonal soft masses violating lepton and quark flavour, and through the generation of lepton-Higgs mixing. We discuss the rel...
