Introduction
SUSY: a solution of hierarchy problem SUSY breaking is necessary Scherk-Schwarz SUSY breaking:
the simplest case is 5D theory on or different b.c. on bosons and fermions
Conformal SUGRA (off-shell formulation of SUGRA)useful and powerful to describe the SUGRA action with boundaries
In conformal SUGRA, various properties of SS mechanism can be easily understood.
SS twist in 5D SUGRA
5D SUGRA on with the radiusIt has symmetry. Orbifold b.c. : We choose as Twisting b.c. for
Consistency condition:
This requires .
5D conformal supergravity Symmetries:
Field content: Weyl multiplet: Hypermultiplet:

Superconformal gauge fixing Extra symmetries: Ordinary gauge fixing conditions
Combining and gauge fixings,
We will modify this as
while the physical fields remain periodic.
gauge field on-shell is given by
is shifted and
This corresponds to the nonvanishing F-term of
the radion superfield in the superfield formalism. (G.v. Gersdorff, M.Quiros, …)
SUSY breaking terms:
All SUSY terms are proportional to .
gravitino gaugino
hyperscalar
Singular gauge fixingWe take a gauge fixing parameter as
Namely,
Thus becomes boundary terms.
SS twist
⇔ Boundary Constant superpotential
provided that .
SS SUSY breaking is spontaneous.
SS twist and warped geometry
SS twist yields an inconsistency on the warped geometry. (Hall,Nomura,Okui,Oliver (2004))
Gauging of by graviphoton is necessary to realize geometry.
From , a graviphoton mass term appears, which is proportional to .
Consistency condition:
Models of (Gherghetta,Pomarol;Falkowski,Lalak,Pokorski) gauging with odd couplingi.e.,
Model of (Altendorfer,Bagger,Nemeschansky) gauging with even coupling i.e., SS twisting seems possible. But this model is not derived from known off-shell SUGRA.
-even case:Boundary tension terms come from
Then,
SUSY condition:
Randall-Sundrum condition:
Summary
From the viewpoint of 5D conformal SUGRA, SS twisting for is understood as
twisted gauge fixing.
SS twist ⇔ Boundary constant superpotential
SS twist in leads to massive graviphoton.
Future works The case that both SS twist and bounda
ry constant superpotentials exist (model of Altendorfer,Bagger,Nemeschansky?)
Extension to two-compensator case(e.g. effective theory of heterotic M theory)
In the flat case, SS twist ⇔ b.d. constant superpotential
Is it possible to restore SUSY by tuning ?
The answer is NO. SS twist does not lead to the b.d. tensions.
Relation to the ABN model is still an open question.
