Contribution

It introduces an automated framework for constructing EFT operators with flexible fields and symmetries, streamlining EFT development and analysis.

Findings

Supports a wide range of fields and symmetries including gravitons.

Provides input files for Standard Model and extensions.

Enables efficient EFT operator generation.

Abstract

The program AutoEFT is described. It allows one to generate Effective Field Theories (EFTs) from a given set of fields and symmetries. Allowed fields include scalars, spinors, gauge bosons, and gravitons. The symmetries can be local or global Lie groups based on U(1) and SU(N). The mass dimension of the EFT is limited only by the available computing resources. The operators are stored in a compact, human and machine-readable format. Aside from the program itself, we provide input files for EFTs based on the Standard Model and a number of its extensions. These include additional particles and symmetries, EFTs with minimal flavor violation, and gravitons.
