Abstract
We compute the one-loop non-holomorphic effective potential for the N=4 SU( n) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with the gauge symmetry broken down to the maximal torus U(1)(n-1). Our approach remains powerful for arbitrary ga uge groups and is based on thr use of N = 2 harmonic superspace formulation for general N = 2 Yang-Mills theories along with the superfield background field method.
