Revisiting Supergravity and Super Yang-Mills Renormalization
Abstract
Description
Standard superspace Feynman diagram rules give one estimate of the onset of ultraviolet divergences in supergravity and super Yang-Mills theories. Newer techniques motivated by string theory but which also make essential use of unitarity cutting rules give another in certain cases. We trace the difference to the treatment of higher-dimensional gauge invariance in supersymmetric theories that can be dimensionally oxidized to pure supersymmetric gauge theories.
