The coherent states associated to the discrete serie representations $D(E_o,s)$ of $SO(3,2)$ are constructed in terms of (spin-)tensor fields on $D=4$ anti-de Sitter space. For $E_o>s+5$ the linear space ${\cal H}_{E_o,s}$ spanned by these…

We propose the action for a massive $N$-extended superparticle with a pure (half)integer superspin $Y,~Y = 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2, \ldots$. Regardless of the superspin value, the configuration space is ${\Bbb R}^{4|4N} \times S^2$, where $S^2$…
