We study some types of dimensionally-deconstructed models for supersymmetric (Euclidean) quantum mechanics, or zero-dimensional field theory. In these models, we assign bosonic and fermionic variables to vertices and the edges of a graph. We investigate a discrete version of the Gaussian model and the Wess–Zumino-type model on a graph. The topological index as a multiple integral is discussed on these models. In addition, we propose simple examples of supersymmetric extensions of the Lee–Wick…

Supersymmetric Gauge Theory on the Graph

We consider two-dimensional N =(2 , 2) supersymmetric gauge theory on discretized Riemann surfaces. We find that the discretized theory can be efficiently described by using graph theory, where the…

Kazakov-Migdal model on the graph and Ihara zeta function

We propose the Kazakov-Migdal model on graphs and show that, when the parameters of this model are appropriately tuned, the partition function is represented by the unitary matrix integral of an…

Divergences in quantum electrodynamics on a graph

We consider a model of quantum electrodynamics (QED) on a graph as the generalization of dimensional deconstruction with the Abelian symmetry. Arbitrary structures of the theory space correspond to…

A lattice path integral for supersymmetric quantum mechanics

Leibniz rule and exact supersymmetry on lattice: A Case of supersymmetrical quantum mechanics

We propose a new formulation of lattice theory. It is given by a matrix form and suitable for satisfying Leibniz rule on lattice. The theory may be interpreted as a multi-flavor system. By realizing…

Supersymmetric cubic Galileons have ghosts

Galileons are higher-derivative theories of a real scalar which nevertheless admit second-order equations of motion. They have interesting applications as dark energy models and in early universe…

Spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in matrix models from the viewpoints of localization and Nicolai mapping

We consider supersymmetric matrix models of the type of the Wess-Zumino model, whose supersymmetry (SUSY) may be spontaneously broken. When SUSY is broken, the partition function vanishes since it is…

Supersymmetric Models with Higher Dimensional Operators

In 4D renormalisable theories, integrating out massive states generates in the low energy effective action higher dimensional operators (derivative or otherwise). Using a superfield language it is…

Exact lattice supersymmetry

Lattice supersymmetry and topological field theory

It is known that certain theories with extended supersymmetry can be discretized in such a way as to preserve an exact fermionic symmetry. In the simplest model of this kind, we show that this…

FERMION SPECTRUM AND LOCALIZATION ON KINKS IN A DECONSTRUCTED DIMENSION

We study the deconstructed scalar theory having nonlinear interactions and being renormalizable. It is shown that the kink-like configurations exist in such models. The possible forms of Yukawa…
