Holomorphy without Supersymmetry in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory
Rodrigo Alonso, Elizabeth E. Jenkins, and Aneesh V. Manohar

TL;DR
This paper observes that the anomalous dimensions of dimension-six operators in SMEFT largely respect holomorphy, resembling supersymmetry-like properties despite the theory not being supersymmetric.
Contribution
It reveals that holomorphy conditions in SMEFT mimic supersymmetry features without requiring the theory to be supersymmetric.
Findings
Holomorphy is largely respected in SMEFT anomalous dimensions.
Holomorphy conditions resemble supersymmetry properties.
SMEFT is not supersymmetric despite these similarities.
Abstract
The anomalous dimensions of dimension-six operators in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) respect holomorphy to a large extent. The holomorphy conditions are reminiscent of supersymmetry, even though the SMEFT is not a supersymmetric theory.
