Supersymmetry is afraid of condensates
Abstract
Supersymmetry is never broken by pair condensates of chiral superfields: the supersymmetry breaking part of Green's functions satisfies an equation which always has an identically vanishing solution. Hence any phase containing pair condensates is unstable due to its positive vacuum energy.
