Aspects of on-shell supersymmetry

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We study classical field theories that do not admit an action principle, implying that their formulation is entirely in terms of equations of motion. In the theories that we consider, supersymmetry is realized on the mass-shell. We will show that the supersymmetry algebras previously studied in the literature, allow for a broader class of potentials and for new target space manifolds. We discuss extensively theories with eight supercharges as well as a massive ten dimensional maximal supergravity.
