Overview

This is the first volume in a series of books on the general theme of Supersymmetric Mechanics; the series is based on lectures and discussions held in 2005 and 2006 at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati. The selected topics include supersymmetry and supergravity, the attractor mechanism, black holes, noncommutative mechanics, super-Hamiltonian formalism and matrix models. All lectures are intended for beginners at the graduate level and nonspecialists from related fields of research and a substantial effort was made to incorporate in the extensive write-ups the results of the animated discussion sessions which followed the individual lectures. A second volume appears as

Lecture Notes Physics, Vol. 701 Supersymmetric Mechanics - Vol. 2: The Attractor Mechanism (2006), ISBN: 3-540-34156-0.

Reviews

From the reviews: <p> Edited by S Bellucci, S Ferrara and A Marrani, is a good example of the kind of well-digested presentation that should still find its way into university libraries. a ] Overall, this makes for a useful compilation of material on a subject that underlies mush of the current effort in supersymmetric approaches to cosmology and the unification programme.
