Inspired by exciting developments in superstring theory, it provides a systematic treatment of the quantum field theories with N=2 and N=3 supersymmetry in harmonic superspace. The authors present the harmonic superspace approach as a means of providing an off-shell description of the N=2 supersymmetric theories, both at the classical and quantum levels. Furthermore, they show how it offers a unique way to construct an off-shell formulation of a theory with higher supersymmetry, namely the N=3 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Harmonic Superspace makes manifest many remarkable geometric properties of the N=2 theories, for example, the one-to-one correspondence between N=2 supersymmetric matter, and hyper-Kähler and quaternionic manifolds. This book will be of interest to researchers and graduate students working in the areas of supersymmetric quantum field theory, string theory and complex geometries.Cambridge monographs on mathematical physics.SupersymmetrySupersymmetry.539.7/25Galperin A.

Landform grading design and construction technology have advanced rapidly during the past decade, and this book explains the technique, its uses, its various applications, and its significant advantages. Landforming: An Environmental Approach to Hillside Development, Mine Reclamation and Watershed Restoration, presents the first comprehensive and practical guidebook to the innovative techniques of landform grading and revegetation. Written in straightforward language and liberally illustrated with informative photographs and schematic drawings, the text should prove of value to practicing professionals in such diverse fields as land planning, civil and geotechnical engineering, landscape architecture, and geology as well as to personnel in a variety of local, state and federal regulatory agencies and environmental interest groups"--From publisher description.Soil stabilizationGrading (Earthwork)Soil conservationSoil-binding plantsLandscape constructionSoil stabilizationSoil conservationSoil-binding plantsLandscape constructionCivil EngineeringHILCCCivil & Environmental EngineeringHILCCEngineering & Applied SciencesHILCCSoil stabilization.Grading (Earthwork)Soil conservation.Soil-binding plants.Landscape construction.Soil stabilizationSoil conservationSoil-binding plantsLandscape constructionCivil EngineeringCivil & Environmental EngineeringEngineering & Applied Sciences624.1/52Schor Horst J.1938-1619520Gray Donald H306042DLCDLCBTCTABAKERYDXCPC#PAGLDLCBOOK9910830316003321Landforming3951805UNINAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
