Title:

Higher derivative supersymmetric theories and their BPS states

Abstract:

Higher derivative terms in supersymmetric theories are in general suffer from the auxiliary field problem that they propagate and cannot be eliminated. We classify BPS states in N=1 supersymmetric theories with higher derivative terms free from the auxiliary field problem. We also discuss a supersymmetric extension of the Skyrme model.
