We present evidence for a new supersymmetric quartet in the A=190 region of the nuclear mass table. New experimental information on transfer and neutron capture reactions to the odd-odd nucleaus 194 Ir strongly suggests the existence of a…
Using the harmonic superspace approach, we construct the three-dimensional N=4 supersymmetric quantum mechanics of the supermultiplet (3,4,1) coupled to an external SU(2) gauge field. The off-shell N=4 supersymmetry requires the gauge field…
Semichiral sigma models with a four-dimensional target space do not support extended N=(4,4) supersymmetries off-shell arXiv:0903.2376, arXiv:0912.4724. We contribute towards the understanding of the non-manifest on-shell transformations in…
The effective action for wee partons in large nuclei includes a sum over static color sources distributed in a wide range of representations of the SU(N_c) color group. The problem can be formulated as a random walk of partons in the N_c-1…
We give a brief account of supersymmetric Born-Infeld theories with extended supersymmetry, including those with partially broken supersymmetry. Some latest developments in this area are presented. One of them is N=3 supersymmetric…
We include a new 7-form ansatz in 11-dimensional supergravity over AdS_4 x S^7/Z_k when the internal space is considered as a U(1) bundle on CP^3. After a general analysis of the ansatz, we take a special form of it and obtain a scalar…
We formulate N-fold supersymmetry in quantum mechanical systems with reflection operators. As in the cases of other systems, they possess the two significant characters of N-fold supersymmetry, namely, almost isospectrality and weak…
Let (\Gamma,d) be the 3D-calculus or the 4D_{\pm}-calculus on the quantum group SU_q(2). We describe all pairs (\pi, F) of a *-representation \pi of O(SU_q(2)) and of a symmetric operator F on the representation space satisfying a technical…
In three dimensions, it is known that field theories possessing extended $(p,q)$ anti-de Sitter (AdS) supersymmetry with ${\cal N}=p+q \geq 3$ can be realised in (2,0) AdS superspace. Here we present a formalism to reduce every field theory…
Classification of N=4 superconformal symmetries in two dimensions is re-examined. It is proposed that apart from SU(2) and $SU(2)\times SU(2)\times U(1)$ their Kac-Moody symmetry can also be $SU(2)\times(U(1))^4$. These superconformal…
In three-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) space, there exist several realizations of N-extended supersymmetry, which are traditionally labelled by two non-negative integers p>=q such that p+q=N. Different choices of p and q, with N fixed,…
We consider the 4-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ Lie superconformal algebra and search for completely "symmetric" (in the graded sense) 3-index invariant tensors. The solution we find is unique and we show that the corresponding invariant…
Exploiting the gauging procedure developed by us in hep-th/0605211, we study the relationships between the models of N=4 mechanics based on the off-shell multiplets (4,4,0) and (1,4,3). We make use of the off-shell N=4, d=1 harmonic…
All finite dimensional irreducible representations of the simple Lie-Kac super algebra SU(2/1) are explicitly constructed in the Chevalley basis as complex matrices. For typical representations, the distinguished Dynkin label is not…
We investigate the representation theory of some recently constructed N=2 super W-algebras with two generators. Except for the central charges in the unitary minimal series of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra we find no new rational models.…
Let $D$ be a quaternion division algebra over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of characteristic zero. Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension and $\rm{SL}_{n}^{*}(E) = {\rm{GL}}_{n}(E) \cap \rm{SL}_{n}(D)$. We study distinguished…
We derive massless and massive representations of all SU(2,2/N) superalgebras by using superfields defined in "harmonic superspace". This method allows one to easily construct "short superfields" which are relevant in the analysis of the…
We construct a lattice model for two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric QCD (SQCD), with the matter multiplets belonging to the fundamental or anti-fundamental representation of the gauge group U(N) or SU(N). The construction is based on…
Quantum versions of the hydrogen atom and the harmonic oscillator are studied on non Euclidean spaces of dimension N. 2N-1 integrals, of arbitrary order, are constructed via a multi-dimensional version of the factorization method, thus…
We consider a general N=(2,2) non-linear sigma-model in (2,2) superspace. Depending on the details of the complex structures involved, an off-shell description can be given in terms of chiral, twisted chiral and semi-chiral superfields.…
