Title:     Hiding supersymmetry from the LHC

Abstract: Supersymmetry is one of the preferred frameworks for solving the hierarchy problem. However, to this day, there is no concrete evidence for it. In particular, LHC is putting very strong constraints on the parameter space of supersymmetric models. In this talk I will summarize the implications of LHC searches for weak scale supersymmetry and present frameworks that attempt to evade LHC bounds while preserving the success of supersymmetry in solving the hierarchy problem. In particular I will discuss a model with Dirac gauginos and broken R-parity.
