Laurent Baulieu (LPTHE, CERN), Guillaume Bossard (LPTHE)
TL;DR
This paper develops a renormalization method for N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory that preserves supersymmetry using shadow-dependent Slavnov-Taylor identities, ensuring gauge invariance and supersymmetric consistency.
Contribution
It introduces a supersymmetric renormalization prescription based on shadow-dependent identities, addressing the determination of counterterms to maintain supersymmetry.
Findings
A systematic method for supersymmetric renormalization is established.
Counterterms necessary for preserving supersymmetry are explicitly identified.
The approach ensures gauge invariance and supersymmetry at the quantum level.
Abstract
Using the shadow dependent decoupled Slavnov-Taylor identities associated to gauge invariance and supersymmetry, we discuss the renormalization of the N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory and of its coupling to gauge-invariant operators. We specify the method for the determination of non-supersymmetric counterterms that are needed to maintain supersymmetry.
