Chiral anomalies inN=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories ind=2 dimensions

Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

We derive an explicitly supersymmetric expression for the chiral anomaly of a supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in two dimensions. For this we use the descent equations in constrained (1, 1)-superspace. The anomaly is polynomial in the vector superfield.

Riassunto

Si deriva una espressione esplicitamente supersimmetrica per l’anomalia chirale di una teoria supersimmetrica di Yang-Mills in due dimensioni. Per questo, si usano equazioni di discesa nel superspazio vincolato (1, 1). L’anomalia è polinomiale nel supercampo vettoriale.
