Abstract

Higher derivative extensions of the standard Model of elementary particles (Lee-Wick) has been recently proposed to solve dificulties related to the diferent mass scales involved in the breakdown of the symmetries. Supersymmetric extensions has also been considered in the last decades. We intend to study field theory models involving both extensions and their possible benefits and difficulties fo formulation.
