 Dynamical supersymmetry breaking

Dynamical supersymmetry breaking occurs when quantum dynamics produces a vacuum that does not preserve supersymmetry. An asymptotically free hidden sector can generate the displayed exponentially small scale through dimensional transmutation. This supplies a possible origin of a hierarchy, but strong coupling by itself does not prove breaking: the vacuum equations and dynamics must exclude a supersymmetric vacuum.
