Wilsonian Proof for Renormalizability of N=1/2 Supersymmetric Field Theories
Abstract
We provide Wilsonian proof for renormalizability of four-dimensional quantum field theories with
N=1/2
supersymmetry. We argue that the non-hermiticity inherent to these theories permits assigning noncanonical scaling dimension both for the Grassman coordinates and superfields. This reassignment can be done in such a way that the non(anti)commutativity parameter is dimensionless, and then the rest of the proof ammounts to power counting. The renormalizability is also stable against adding standard four-dimensional soft-breaking terms to the theory. However, with the new scaling dimension assignments, some of these terms are not just relevant deformations of the theory but become marginal.
