Abstract

Motivated by the isomorphism between osp(4|6) superalgebra and D=3 N=6 superconformal algebra we consider the superstring action on the AdS_4 x CP^3 background parametrized by D=3 N=6 super-Poincare and CP^3 coordinates supplemented by the coordinates corresponoding to dilatation and superconformal generators. It is also discussed the relation between the degeneracy of fermionic equations of motion and the action kappa-invariance in the framework of the supercoset approach.
