Abstract

A superembedding construction of general non-abelian Born-Infeld actions in three dimensions is described. These actions have rigid target space and local worldvolume supersymmetry(i.e. kappa symmetry). The standard abelian Born-Infeld gauge multiplet is augmented with an additional worldvolume SU(N) gauge supermultiplet. It is shown how to construct single-trace actions and in particular a kappa-supersymmetric extension of the symmetrised trace action.
