This book presents the superfield description of various supersymmetric field theory models in three- and four-dimensional space-times. A mapping between superfield and component formulations of supersymmetric field theories is discussed. The author also describes the methodology for calculating quantum corrections in these theories employing supergraph formalism and functional methods, and illustrates these approaches with many detailed examples of how such calculations are performed for various superfield models.

Albert Petrov holds a Ph. D. in Theoretical Physics (1997, Tomsk, Russia), and is currently a professor at the Federal University of Paraiba (Joao Pessoa, Brazil). He works in several areas of quantum field theory and gravity and has published more than 100 papers in international scientific journals. His focal points of scientific interest are supersymmetry, Lorentz symmetry breaking and modified gravity.

Introduction.- Effective action and loop expansion: general formulation.- Superfield description of three-dimensional supersymmetric theories.- Four-dimensional superfield supersymmetry.- Supersymmetry breaking.- Conclusions.

"The exposition is comprehensive and the calculations are explicit at each step, thus making the book pedagogical and valuable also for the non-expert reader. Many explicit examples are worked out in detail, both in three and in four dimensions." (Niccolò Cribiori, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2022)
