The method is based on an iterative and self-consistent solution of the charge neutrality equation with full Fermi-Dirac statistics for the carriers at finite temperature and on the use of statistical analyses to give analytic expressions that represent the calculated data sets.
It gets its name because it proposes that for every particle known to the standard model there exists a supersymmetric partner that has the same properties but obeys the opposite of the two kinds of statistical law that apply to subatomic particles, Bose-Einstein statistics and Fermi-Dirac statistics.
What Alder calls the "really deep problem" is related to the feature of quantum mechanics known as Fermi-Dirac statistics.
