Quebra de simetria de calibre no modelo de Chern-Simons supersimétrico
Keywords in Portuguese
Campos de Padrão
Supersimetria
Teoria Quântica de Campo
Teoria Quântica Relativística
Abstract in Portuguese
Através do formalismo de supercampos, estudamos as propriedades ultravioletas da eletrodinâmica quântica supersimétrica no espaço-tempo tridimensional. Mostramos que esta teoria é finita em todas as ordens de perturbação num calibre particular. Também apresentamos uma análise perturbativa do modelo de Chern-Simons supersimétrico acoplado a um supercampo escalar complexo. Com isso, estudamos a quebra da simetria de calibre U(1) e calculamos as primeiras correções quânticas à ação efetiva na fase quebrada. Mostramos que a renormalização da equação de gap é suficiente para assegurar a renormalizabilidade do modelo em um laço de aproximação. Nós também verificamos que quando acoplado a um supercampo escalar sem massa, o modelo de Chern-Simons supersimétrico apresenta geração dinâmica de massa, um mecanismo que em D = 2 + 1 dimensões do espaço-tempo, diferentemente do modelo não-supersimétrico quadridimensional (Coleman- Weinberg), só ocorre a partir da aproximação de dois laços. Alguns outros resultados relacionados são também incluídos nesta tese, tais como um estudo do modelo CP**(N-1) não-comutativo supersimétrico e a equivalência entre os modelos de Maxwell-Chern-Simons e Auto-Dual supersimétricos. Em todo nosso trabalho, supersimetria é manifesta.

Supersymmetry
Abstract in English
Within the superfield formalism, we study the ultraviolet properties of the three-dimensional supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics. The theory is shown to be finite at all loops orders in a particular gauge. We also present a perturbative analysis of the supersymmetric Chern-Simons model coupled to a Higgs field. We study the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the U(1) gauge symmetry and evaluate the first quantum corrections to the effective action in the broken phase. We show that the infinite renormalization of the gap equation is enough to ensure the renormalizability of the model at the first loop level. We also verify that when coupled to a massless scalar superfield, the supersymmetric Chern-Simons model present dynamical generation of mass, a mechanism that in D = 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions, differently from the four-dimensional non-supersymetric model (Coleman-Weinberg), only occurs from two-loop order. Some other related results are also enclosed in this thesis, such as a study of the supersymmetric noncommutative CP**(N-1) model and the equivalence between Maxwell-Chern-Simons and Self-Dual supersymmetric models. In whole work, supersymmetry is manifest.
