We start systematic investigation for the possibility to have supersymmetry (SUSY) as an asymptotic state of the gauge theory in the high energy (UV) limit, due to the renormalization group running of coupling constants of the theory. The answer on whether this situation takes place or not, can be resolved by dealing with the running of the ratios between Yukawa and scalar couplings to the gauge coupling. The behavior of these ratios does not depend too much on whether gauge coupling is asymptotically free (AF) or not. It can be shown that the UV stable fixed point for the Yukawa coupling is not supersymmetric. Taking this into account, one can break down SUSY only in the scalar coupling sector. We consider two simplest examples of such breaking, namely N = 1 supersymmetric QED and QCD. In one of the cases one can construct an example of SUSY being restored in the UV regime.

A new mechanism to explain the first order ferroelastic—ferroelectric transition in Terbium Molybdate (TMO) is presented. From group theory analysis it is shown that in the two-dimensional parameter space ordering along either an axis or a diagonal is forbidden. These symmetry-imposed singularities are found to make the unique stable fixed point not accessible for TMO. A continuous transition even if allowed within Landau theory is thus impossible once fluctuations are included. The TMO transition is therefore always first order. This explanation is supported by experimental results.
