Four types of (super)conformal mechanics: D-module reps and invariant actions
Abstract
(Super)conformal mechanics in one dimension is induced by parabolic or hyperbolic/trigonometric transformations, either homogeneous (for a scaling dimension ) or inhomogeneous (at , with an inhomogeneity parameter). Four types of (super)conformal actions are thus obtained. With the exclusion of the homogeneous parabolic case, dimensional constants are present. Both the inhomogeneity and the insertion of generalize the construction of Papadopoulos [CQG 30 (2013) 075018; arXiv:1210.1719]. Inhomogeneous -module reps are presented for the superconformal algebras , , and . For centerless superVirasoro algebras -module reps are presented (in the homogeneous case for ; in the inhomogeneous case for ). The four types of superconformal actions are derived for systems. When , the homogeneously-induced actions are -invariant ( is critically linked to ); the inhomogeneously-induced actions are -invariant.

29 pages. Final version to appear in J. Math. Phys. Two appendices and references added. It is pointed out that hyperbolic/trigonometric superconformal models are not ordinary supersymmetric theories
