A general form of holomorphic 8 1 effective action is found for hypermultiplet belonging to arbitrary representation of 9 0 9 any semisimple compact Lie group spontaneously broken to its maximal abelian 9 / subgroup. The applications of obtained results to hypermultiplets in fundamental h t- and adjoint representations of the SU (n), SO(n), Sp(n) groups are considered. p e h : v i X r a One of the remarkable properties of supersymmetric field theories is an existence of two types of effective lagrangians, chiral and general or holomorphic and non-holomorphic. General or non-holomorphic lagrangian contributes to effective action in form of integral over full super- space while chiral or holomorphic lagrangian contributes to effective action in form of integral over chiral subspace. We point out that an appearance of holomorphic corrections to effective action was firstly demonstrated in refs [1]-[4] (see also [5], [6]) for N = 1 SUSY and in refs [7], [8] for N = 2 SUSY. The modern interest to effective action in N = 2 supersymmetric theories is conditioned by the work [9] where exact instanton contribution to holomorphic effective potential has been found for N = 2 SU (2) super Yang-Mills model.
