Abstract:
Fierz transformations, which change the order of the spinor
indices of direct products of $\gamma$ matrices, are studied. It
is shown that the particular features of the Fierz identities in
infinite-dimensional spaces (among which a space of nonintegral
“dimension” $d=4-2\varepsilon$ should be included) strongly
restrict the possibilities of constructing a supersymmetric
dimensional regularization.
