Ideas and Methods of Supersymmetry and Supergravity: Or a Walk
Through Superspace provides a comprehensive, detailed, and
self-contained account of four dimensional simple supersymmetry and
supergravity. Throughout the book, the authors cultivate their
material in detail with calculations and full discussions of the
fundamental ideas and motivations. They develop the subject in its
superfield formulations but where appropriate for illustration,
analogy, and comparison with conventional field theory, they use
the component formulation. The book discusses many subjects that,
until now, can only be found in the research literature. In
addition, it presents a plethora of new results. Combining
classical and quantum field theory with group theory, differential
geometry, and algebra, the book begins with a solid mathematical
background that is used in the rest of the book. The next chapter
covers algebraic aspects of supersymmetry and the concepts of
superspace and superfield. In the following chapters, the book
presents classical and quantum superfield theory and the superfield
formulation of supergravity. A synthesis of results and methods
developed in the book, the final chapter concludes with the theory
of effective action in curved superspaces. After studying this
book, readers should be well prepared to pursue independent
research in any area of supersymmetry and supergravity. It will be
an indispensable source of reference for advanced graduate
students, postdoctoral faculty, and researchers involved in quantum
field theory, high energy physics, gravity theory, mathematical
physics, and applied mathematics.
