Summary
We give a pedagogical introduction to supersymmetric quantum mechanics with emphasis on the question of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. Various models both withN=1 andN=2 supersymmetry are then presented and analysed.
Riassunto
Si dà un introduzione pedagogica alla meccanica quantistica supersimmetrica dando particolare risalto al problema della violazione spontanea della supersimmetria. Si presentano ed analizzano quindi vari modelli con supersimmetriaN=1 eN=2.
Резюме
Предлагается педагогическое введение в суперсимметричную квантовую механику, обращая особое внимание на вопрос спонтанного нарушения суперсимметрии. Затем анализируются различные модели суперсимметрии сN=1 иN=2.
