Fermions on the antibrane: Higher order interactions and spontaneously broken supersymmetry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
It has been recently argued that inserting a probe $\overline{\mathrm{D}3}$-brane in a flux background breaks supersymmetry spontaneously instead of explicitly, as previously thought. In this paper we argue that such spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry persists even when the probe $\overline{\mathrm{D}3}$-brane is kept in a curved background with an internal space that does not have to be a Calabi-Yau manifold. To show this we take a specific curved background generated by fractional 3-branes and fluxes on a non-K\"ahler resolved conifold where supersymmetry breaking appears directly from certain worldvolume fermions becoming massive. In fact this turns out to be a generic property even if we change the dimensionality of the antibrane, or allow higher-order fermionic interactions on the antibrane. We argue for the former by taking a probe $\overline{\mathrm{D}7}$-brane in a flux background and demonstrate the spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry using worldvolume fermions. We argue for the latter by constructing an all-order fermionic action for the $\overline{\mathrm{D}3}$-brane from which the spontaneous nature of supersymmetry breaking can be demonstrated by bringing it to a $\ensuremath{\kappa}$-symmetric form.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
