Abstract

We describe a supersymmetric generalization of the construction of Kontsevich and Arbarello, De Concini, Kac, and Procesi, which utilizes a relation between the moduli space of curves with the infinite-dimensional Sato Grassmannian. Our main result is the existence of a flat holomorphic connection on the line bundle λ3/2λ1/25\lambda_{3/2}\otimes\lambda_{1/2}^{-5} on the moduli space of triples: a super Riemann surface, a Neveu-Schwarz puncture, and a formal coordinate system. We also prove a superconformal Noether normalization lemma for families of super Riemann surfaces.
