Contraction of indices

## Contraction of indices
|
|
|
|
|
|
The indices of the involved particles are automatically contracted by SARAH as explained [here](/Automatic_index_contraction "wikilink"). Sometimes, there are more possibilities to contract all indices. Therefore, it is also possible to fix the contraction of each term. The contraction used by SARAH can be seen by

## Properties of couplings and soft-breaking terms
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the particles involved in the different interactions have more than one generation, the couplings are in general complex tensors carrying up to three generation indices. Assumptions like diagonality or no CP violation can added by using the [parameter file](/parameters.m "wikilink"). The corresponding soft-breaking term to each superpotential coupling is automatically added to the Lagrangian. The soft-breaking couplings carry the same indices as the superpotential coupling. They are named as

|
|
|
1. Quartic terms: <span>Q\[“Name of Coupling”\]</span>
|
|
|
2. Trilinear terms: <span>T\[“Name of Coupling”\]</span>
|
|
|
3. Bilinear terms: <span>B\[“Name of Coupling”\]</span>
|
|
|
4. Linear terms: <span>L\[“Name of Coupling”\]</span>
|
|
|
1. Quartic terms: `Q[“Name of Coupling”]`
|
|
|
2. Trilinear terms: `T[“Name of Coupling”]`
|
|
|
3. Bilinear terms: `B[“Name of Coupling”]`
|
|
|
4. Linear terms: `L[“Name of Coupling”]`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simplifying assumptions for the soft-breaking terms can be made independently of the assumptions for the superpotential parameters in [parameters.m](/parameters.m "wikilink")

4. **Explicit contraction**:
|
|
|
in particular for the SU(2) it might be necessary to adjust the index contraction: there is some ambiguity because of the relation among the fundamental and anti-fundamental representation in this group. For instance, in the seesaw 2 model and might want to define the coupling between the triplet `t` and the leptons `l` as follows:
