An unconventional and elegant geometrical approach is adopted in this book to explain supersymmetric field theories, and describe intuitive methods for understanding the logic underlying such concepts. Aimed at graduate students and researchers, the collection of lectures provides an advanced course in supergravity and supersymmetry, which requires knowledge of the basic concepts and fundamental tools of these fields. The author shows how complex results and formulae obtained from the more classical approaches to SUSY can be simplified dramatically when translated to a geometric setting.
Covering a wide range of topics and offering rigorous, in-depth explanations, this text would be an extremely valuable resource for theoretical physicists.
