Abstract
The supersymmetric self-dual Yang-Mills theory in a four- dimensional space with signature is formulated in harmonic superspace. The on-shell constraints of the theory are reformulated in the equivalent form of vanishing curvature conditions for three gauge connections (one harmonic and two space-time). The constraints are then obtained as variational equations from a superspace action of the Chern-Simons type. The action is manifestly invariant. It can be viewed as the Lorentz-covariant form of the light-cone superfield action proposed by Siegel.
