the usual DREG with modified minimal subtraction (MS). In particular, the boundary conditions atthe input scale should presumably be applied in a supersymmetry-preserving scheme like DR. Oneloop β-functions are always the same in these two schemes, but it is important to realize that the MSscheme does violate supersymmetry, so that DR is preferred† from that point of view. (The NSVZscheme [114] also respects supersymmetry and has some very useful properties, but with a less obviousconnection to calculations of physical observables. I t is also possible, but not always very practical, towork consistently within the MS scheme, as long as one translates all DR couplings and masses intotheir MS counterparts [115]-[117].)A general and powerful result known as the supersymmetric non-renormalization theorem [118]

governs the form of the renormalization group equations for supersymmetric theories. This theoremimplies that the logarithmically divergent contributions to a particular process can always be writtenin terms of wave-function renormalizations, without any coupling vertex renormalization.‡ I t can beproved most easily using superfield techniques. For the parameters appearing in the superpotentialeq. (3.2.15), the implication is that

βy i j k ≡d

dtyi j k = γ in y

n j k + γ jnyi n k + γkn y

i j n , (6.5.1)

βM i j ≡d

dtM i j = γ inM

n j + γ jnMi n , (6.5.2)

βL i ≡d

dtL i = γ inL

n , (6.5.3)

where the γ ij are anomalous dimension matrices associated with the superfields, which generally have tobe calculated in a perturbative loop expansion. [Recall t = ln(Q/Q0), where Q is the renormalizationscale, and Q0 is a reference scale.] The anomalous dimensions and RG equations for softly brokensupersymmetry are now known up to 3-loop order, with some partial 4-loop results; they have beengiven in refs. [119]-[124]. There are also relations, good to all orders in perturbation theory, that givethe RG equations for soft supersymmetry couplings in terms of those for the supersymmetric couplings[114, 125]. Here, for simplicity, only the 1-loop approximation will be shown explicitly.In general, at 1-loop order,

γ ij =1

where Ca (i ) are the quadratic Casimir group theory invariants for the superfield Φi , defined in termsof the Lie algebra generators T a by

(T aT a ) ij = Ca (i )δ

ji (6.5.5)

with gauge couplings ga . Explicitly, for the MSSM supermultiplets:

C3(i ) =4/3 for Φi = Q, u, d,

0 for Φi = L , e, H u , H d ,(6.5.6)

†Even the DRED scheme may not provide a supersymmetric regulator, because of either ambiguities or inconsistencies(depending on the precise method) appearing at five-loop order at the latest [110]. Fortunately, this does not seem tocause practical difficulties [111, 112]. See also ref. [113] for an interesting proposal that avoids doing violence to thenumber of spacetime dimensions.

‡Actually, there is vertex renormalization working in a supersymmetric gauge theory in which auxiliary fields have beenintegrated out, but the sum of divergent contributions for a process always has the form of wave-function renormalization.This is related to the fact that the anomalous dimensions of the superfields differ, by gauge-fix ing dependent terms, fromthe anomalous dimensions of the fermion and boson component fields [31].
