Abstract
We show that the renormalization transformations take a very simple form in a superspace formulation of gauge theories with a broken OSp (3,1[vert bar]2) symmetry. Interrelations between renormalizations of all sources of fields and of composite operators is shown to arise from the fact that they belong together in source supermultiplets which transform under renormalization as a whole, in a simple fashion. The symmetry-breaking piece [ital S][sub 1] of the action (which generates sources for fields [ital and] composite operators, gauge-fixing term, and ghost term) is entirely left form invariant by renormalization transformations. The freedom to perform an asymmetric renormalization of ghost and antighost fields is shown to correspond to that of an Sp (2) rotation in superspace.
