Abstract: We consider some aspects of the curved BPS domain walls and their supersymmetric Lorentz invariant vacua of the four dimensional N=1 supergravity coupled to a chiral multiplet. In particular, the scalar manifold can be viewed as a two dimensional K"ahler-Ricci soliton generating a one-parameter family of K"ahler manifolds evolved with respect to a real parameter, $au$. This implies that all quantities describing the walls and their vacua indeed evolve with respect to $au$. Then, the analysis on the eigenvalues of the first order expansion of BPS equations shows that in general the vacua related to the field theory on a curved background do not always exist. In order to verify their existence in the ultraviolet or infrared regions one has to perform the renormalization group analysis. Finally, we discuss in detail a simple model with a linear superpotential and the K"ahler-Ricci soliton considered as the Rosenau solution.

Review text

The authors consider various aspects of curved BPS domain walls, and their supersymmetric Lorentz invariant vacua of the four dimensional \(N=1\) supergravity coupled to a chiral multiplet. They discovered that the resulting scalar manifold may be regarded as a two-dimensional Kähler-Ricci soliton generating a one-parameter family of Kähler manifolds that evolve with respect to a real parameter. Their analysis of the eigenvalues of the first-order expansion of the BPS equations shows that in general the afore-mentioned vacua need not exist. In order to confirm their existence in the ultraviolet and infrared regions, a renormalization group analysis must be done. Finally the example of a simple model involving the Rosenau soliton is discussed in some detail.
