 Solution

Every global minimum found for nonzero $\lambda$ has $F_{+}=F_0=F_{-}=D=0$. By energy positivity in global supersymmetry, its zero energy means all supercharges annihilate it. ThereforeThe arbitrary neutral expectation $v$ is a supersymmetric modulus; the nonzero derivatives that would break supersymmetry vanish even though $v$ itself need not vanish. In the exceptional $\lambda =0$ case, every D-flatness minimum likewise has zero F- and D-auxiliaries, so supersymmetry remains unbroken even on the gauge-Higgsed branch. The supersymmetric Higgs mechanism permits internal gauge breaking without supersymmetry breaking. No extra constant or linear superpotential term is needed to find a zero-energy vacuum in this model.
