We show that the noncommutativity of space–time destroys the renormalizability of the 1/N expansion of the O(N) Gross–Neveu model. A similar statement holds for the noncommutative nonlinear sigma model. However, we show that, up to the subleading order in 1/N expansion, the noncommutative supersymmetric O(N) nonlinear sigma model becomes renormalizable in D=3. We also show that dynamical mass generation is restored and there is no catastrophic UV/IR mixing. Unlike the commutative case, we find that the Lagrange multiplier fields, which enforce the supersymmetric constraints, are also renormalized. For D=2 the divergence of the four-point function of the basic scalar field, which in D=3 is absent, cannot be eliminated by means of a counterterm having the structure of a Moyal product.

The large-N nonlinear O(N) sigma model with the curvature coupled term ξRn2 is examined on a spacetime of R1×S2 topology (three-dimensional static Einstein universe). Making use of the cutoff method, we find the renormalized effective potential which shows that, for ξ>1/8, there is a second-order phase transition. Above the critical curvature, the dynamical mass generation does not take place even in the strong-coupled regime. The phase structure of the model on S2 is also discussed.

A method for quantizing the bidimensional N = 2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model is developed. This method is both covariant under coordinate transformations (concerning the order relevant for calculation) and explicitly N = 2 supersymmetric. The operator product expansion of the supercurrent is computed accordingly, including also the dilaton. By imposing the N = 2 superconformal algebra the equations for the metric and the dilaton are obtained. In particular, they imply that the dilaton is a constant.

The neutralino sector is analyzed for a supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model. This model describes the low energy physics of strongly interacting theories in which super-symmetry is softly broken at scales below the electroweak symmetry breaking scale. The measured width of the Z boson constrains the allowed range of parameters. In case the lightest neutralino is stable, limits on additional contributions to the invisible width of the Z boson and on the relic neutralino density further restrict parameter space. As a consequence, the lightest neutralino in the considered class of theories is required to have a mass above 15 GeV, but below MZ.
