Emergent space-time supersymmetry at disorder quantum critical point
read the original abstract
We study the effect of disorder on the spacetime supersymmetry that is proposed to emerge at the quantum critical point of pair density wave transition in (2+1)D Dirac semimetals and (3+1)D Weyl semimetals. In the (2+1)D Dirac semimetal, we consider three types of disorder, including random scalar potential, random vector potential and random mass potential, while the random mass disorder is absent in the (3+1)D Weyl semimetal. Via a systematic renormalization group analysis, we find that any type of weak random disorder is irrelevant due to the couplings between the disorder potential and the Yukawa vertex. The emergent supersymmetry is thus stable for weak random potentials. Our work will pave the way for exploration supersymmetry in realistic condensed matter systems.

Supersymmetric quantum criticality with discrete symmetry
FRG analysis of Z_n-anisotropic Gross-Neveu-Yukawa theories shows irrelevant anisotropy for n>3 yielding N=2 supersymmetric criticality and a second length scale whose exponent satisfies ν'/ν = 1 + |y_n|/2.
