Abstract

We propose a very simple toy model of a Z22\mathbb{Z}_2^2-supersymmetric quantum system and show, via Klein's construction, how to understand the system as being an N=2N=2 supersymmetric system with an extra Z22\mathbb{Z}_2^2-grading. That is, the commutation/anticommutation rules are defined via the standard boson/fermion rules, but the system still has an underlying Z22\mathbb{Z}_2^2-grading that needs to be taken into account.
