Renormalizable supersymmetric gauge theory in six dimensions
read the original abstract
We construct and discuss a 6D supersymmetric gauge theory involving four derivatives in the action. The theory involves a dimensionless coupling constant and is renormalizable. At the tree level, it enjoys N = (1,0) superconformal symmetry, but the latter is broken by quantum anomaly. Our study should be considered as preparatory for seeking an extended version of this theory which would hopefully preserve conformal symmetry at the full quantum level and be ultraviolet-finite.

One-loop finiteness in higher-derivative $6D$, ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ super Yang-Mills -- hypermultiplet system
A novel non-minimal coupling in a higher-derivative 6D N=(1,0) SYM-hypermultiplet system cancels one-loop divergences in the vector multiplet sector, yielding an off-shell finite theory.
