The coupling to gravity in D=5 spacetime dimensions is considered for the particle-like and vortex-type solutions obtained by uplifting the D=4 Yang-Mills instantons and D=3 Yang-Mills-Higgs monopoles. It turns out that the particles become…

It is shown that the N=3 harmonic-superfield equations of motion are invariant with respect to the 4-th supersymmetry. The SU(3) harmonics are also used to analyze a more flexible form of superfield constraints for the Abelian N=4 vector…
In this paper we study a phase structure of $5D$ ${\cal N}=1$ super Yang-Mills theory with massive matter multiplets and $SU(N)$ gauge group. In particular, we are interested in two cases: theory with $N_f$ massive hypermultiplets in the…
Using parafermionic field theoretical methods, the fundamentals of 2d fractional supersymmetry ${\bf Q}^{K} =P$ are set up. Known difficulties induced by methods based on the $U_{q}(sl(2))$ quantum group representations and non commutative…
