Near-SUSY to non-SUSY crossover
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Gauge theories can be solved exactly slightly away from the supersymmetric (SUSY) limit softly broken by anomaly mediation when the size of SUSY breaking is much smaller than the dynamical scale ( m ≪ Λ ). We show empirical evidence that the near-SUSY limit is continuously connected to the non-SUSY limit ( m ≫ Λ ) in SU ( N c ) gauge theories with N f quarks in the fundamental representation. The evidence includes the behavior of quark bilinear condensate and gluon condensates, light hadron spectra, and consistency with the large N c limit including the Witten-Veneziano relations between the topological susceptibility and m η ′ and m π . In addition, we present new predictions when N f / N c ≳ O ( 1 ) .
