Effective Potential and KK-Renormalization Scheme in a 5D Supersymmetric Theory
Abstract
We calculate the 1-loop effective potential in a supersymmetric model in 5D with S1/(Z2× Z2) orbifold compactification. The procedure of calculation consists of evaluating first the integrals over four-momenta using the dimensional regularization and then the sum over Kaluza-Klein modes using the zeta-regularization. We show that both fermionic and bosonic contributions are separately finite and argue that, supersymmetry is not necessary for the finiteness of the theory at 1-loop. Also, some general arguments on the finiteness of the theory with arbitrary number of extra dimensions are presented.
