Supersymmetry: Early Roots That Did Not Grow

Supersymmetry: Early Roots That Did Not Grow

This paper is about early roots of supersymmetry, as found in the literature from 1940s and early 1950s. There were models where the power of “partners” in alleviating divergences in quantum field theory was recognized. However, other currently known remarkable features of supersymmetry, such as its...
