Description for Supersymmetric Field Theories: Geometric Structures and Dualities
hardcover. Adopting an elegant geometrical approach, this advanced pedagogical text describes intuitive methods for understanding the subtle logic of supersymmetry. Num Pages: 424 pages. BIC Classification: PHP. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 180 x 247 x 21. Weight in Grams: 980.
Adopting an elegant geometrical approach, this advanced pedagogical text describes deep and intuitive methods for understanding the subtle logic of supersymmetry while avoiding lengthy computations. The book describes how complex results and formulae obtained using other approaches can be significantly simplified when translated to a geometric setting. Introductory chapters describe geometric structures in field theory in the general case, while detailed later chapters address specific structures such as parallel tensor fields, G-structures, and isometry groups. The relationship between structures in supergravity and periodic maps of algebraic manifolds, Kodaira–Spencer theory, modularity, and the arithmetic properties of supergravity are also addressed.
