Abstract
We show that the mass of the Fayet hypermultiplet, which represents the matter sector of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, may be induced through a generalization of the central charge constraint usually proposed in the literature. This mass showing up as a parameter of the supersymmetry transformations, we conclude that it will stay unrenormalized at the quantum level.
