The well known relation between extended supersymmetry and complex geometry in the non-linear sigma-models is reviewed, and some recent developments related to the introduction of the non-anti-commutativity, in the context of the…
We present a new, alternative interpretation of the vector-tensor multiplet as a 2-form in central charge superspace. This approach provides a geometric description of the (non-trivial) central charge transformations ab initio and is…
Using a reformulation of the nonlinear multiplet as a gauge multiplet, we discuss its dynamics. We show that the nonlinear ``duality'' that appears to relate the model to a conventional $\sigma$-model introduces a new sector into the…
This paper is a letter-type version of hep-th/9806236. We discuss properties of non-linear equations of motion which describe higher-spin gauge interactions for massive spin-0 and spin-1/2 matter fields in 2+1 dimensional anti-de Sitter…
We analyze theories in which a supersymmetric sector is coupled to a supersymmetry-breaking sector described by a non-linear realization. We show how to consistently couple N=1 supersymmetric matter to non-supersymmetric matter in such a…
We find the complete chiral ring relations of the supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories with matter in adjoint representation. We demonstrate exact correspondence between the solutions of the chiral ring and the supersymmetric vacua of the…
This thesis presents the general structure of non-conformal higher-spin supercurrent multiplets in three and four spacetime dimensions. Such supercurrents are in one-to-one correspondence with off-shell massless higher-spin gauge…
Non-conformal supercurrents in six dimensions are described, which contain the trace of the energy-momentum tensor and the gamma-trace of the supersymmetry current amongst their component fields. Within the superconformal approach to ${\cal…
We assume the existence of a background vector field that enables us to make an ansatz for the superconformal transformations for the non-Abelian 6d $(1,0)$ tensor multiplet. Closure of supersymmetry on generators of the conformal algebra,…
We formulate $\mathcal{N}=2$ global supersymmetric Lagrangians of self-interacting vector multiplets in terms of variant multiplets, whose non-propagating fields are replaced with gauge three-forms. Setting the three-forms on-shell results…
The theory of non symmetric Dirichlet forms is generalized to the non abelian setting, also establishing the natural correspondences among Dirichlet forms, sub-Markovian semigroups and sub-Markovian resolvents within this context. Examples…
The study of 3d mirror symmetry has greatly enhanced our understanding of various aspects of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ theories. In this paper, starting with known mirror pairs of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories and gauging discrete…
We consider a new type of ${\cal N}=4$, $d=1$ semi-dynamical multiplet based on the non-linear version of the mirror multiplet ${\bf (3, 4, 1)}$, with the triplet of bosonic physical fields parametrizing a three-dimensional sphere $S^3$ of…
The off-shell vector-tensor multiplet is considered in an arbitrary background of N=2 vector supermultiplets. We establish the existence of two inequivalent versions, characterized by different Chern-Simons couplings. In one version the…
The nearly degenerate triplet bands with the $\pi g_{9/2}^{-1}\otimes \nu h_{11/2} (g_{7/2},d_{5/2})$ configuration in $^{105}$Ag are studied via the relativistic mean-field (RMF) theory and the multiparticle plus rotor model (MPRM), which…
We investigate a higher-group structure of massless axion electrodynamics in $(3+1)$ dimensions. By using the background gauging method, we show that the higher-form symmetries necessarily have a global semistrict 3-group (2-crossed module)…
We examine non-gravitational minimal supermultiplets which are based on the tensor gauge fields appearing as matter fields in exceptional generalised geometry. When possible, off-shell multiplets are given. The fields in the multiplets…
