  • dynamical susy breaking in meta stable vacua
    Journal of High Energy Physics, 2006
    Co-Authors: Kenneth Intriligator, Nathan Seiberg, David Shih
    Abstract:

    Dynamical Supersymmetry breaking in a long-lived meta-stable vacuum is a phenomenologically viable possibility. This relatively unexplored avenue leads to many new models of dynamical Supersymmetry breaking. Here, we present a surprisingly simple class of models with meta-stable dynamical Supersymmetry breaking: = 1 supersymmetric QCD, with massive flavors. Though these theories are strongly coupled, we definitively demonstrate the existence of meta-stable vacua by using the free-magnetic dual. Model building challenges, such as large flavor symmetries and the absence of an R-symmetry, are easily accommodated in these theories. Their simplicity also suggests that broken Supersymmetry is generic in supersymmetric field theory and in the landscape of string vacua.

  • the supergravity dual of a theory with dynamical Supersymmetry breaking
    Journal of High Energy Physics, 2001
    Co-Authors: Juan Maldacena, Horatiu Nastase
    Abstract:

    We study the large-N limit of a little string theory that reduces in the IR to U(N) = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills with Chern-Simons coupling k. Witten has shown that this field theory preserves Supersymmetry if k ≥ N/2 and he conjectured that it breaks Supersymmetry if k < N/2. We find a non-singular solution that describes the k = N/2 case, which is confining. We argue that increasing k corresponds to adding branes to this solution, in a way that preserves Supersymmetry, while decreasing k corresponds to adding anti-branes, and therefore breaking Supersymmetry.

  • meta stable dynamical Supersymmetry breaking near points of enhanced symmetry
    Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007
    Co-Authors: Rouven Essig, Kuver Sinha, Gonzalo Torroba
    Abstract:

    We construct a model with long-lived metastable vacua in which all the relevant parameters, including the Supersymmetry breaking scale, are generated dynamically by dimensional transmutation. Our model consists of two sectors coupled by a singlet and combines dynamical Supersymmetry breaking with an O'Raifeartaigh mechanism in terms of confined variables. The metastable vacua appear along a pseudo-runaway direction near a point of enhanced symmetry as a result of a balance between non-perturbative and perturbative quantum effects. We show that metastable Supersymmetry breaking is a rather generic feature near certain enhanced symmetry points of gauge theory moduli spaces.
