Abstract

We study a non-anticommutative chiral non-singlet deformation of the N = (1, 1) Abelian gauge multiplet in Euclidean harmonic superspace with a product ansatz for the deformation matrix, C(i k)(α β) = c(α β) b(i k). This choice allows us to obtain in closed form the gauge transformations and the unbroken N = (1, 0) supersymmetry transformations preserving the Wess-Zumino gauge, as well as the bosonic sector of the N = (1, 0) invariant action. This should be contrasted with the generic choice for which the analogous results are known only to a few orders in the deformation parameters. As in the case of a singlet deformation, the bosonic action can be cast in a form where it differs from the free action merely by a scalar factor. The latter is now given by cosh2 (2 over(φ{symbol}, ̄) sqrt(cα β cα β bi k bi k)), with over(φ{symbol}, ̄) being one of two scalar fields of the N = (1, 1) vector multiplet. We compare our results with previous studies of non-singlet deformations, including the degenerate case b(i k) b(i k) = 0 which preserves the N = (1, frac(1, 2)) fraction of N = (1, 1) supersymmetry.
