We investigate one-dimensional quantum mechanical systems which have type A N-fold supersymmetry with two different values of N simultaneously. We find that there are essentially four inequivalent models possessing the property, one is…

A sigma model with four-dimensional target space parametrized by chiral and twisted chiral N=(2,2) superfields can be extended to N=(4,4) supersymmetry off-shell, but this is not true for a model of semichiral fields, where the N=(4,4)…

We construct the manifestly N=4 supersymmetric off-shell superfield "master" action for any number n of the N=4 supermultiplets (4, 4, 0) described by harmonic analytic superfields q^{+a}(\zeta, u), a= 1, ... 2n, subjected to the most…

Two-dimensional N=1,2 supersymmetric chiral models and their dual extensions are introduced and canonically quantized. Working within a superspace formalism, the non-manifest invariance under 2D-superPoincare' transformations is proven. The…

We recall the importance of recognizing the different mathematical nature of various concepts relating to PT-symmetric quantum theories. After clarifying the relation between supersymmetry and pseudo-supersymmetry, we prove generically that…

We describe a new 1+1 dimensional N=(2,2) vector multiplet that naturally couples to semi chiral superfields in the sense that the gauged supercovariant derivative algebra is only consistent with imposing covariantly semi chiral superfield…

We give an off-shell formulation of the N=2 supersymmetric new nonlinear vector-tensor multiplet. Interactions arise in this model as a consequence of gauging the central charge of the supersymmetry algebra, which in contrast to previous…

We address the construction of four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on tangent bundles of arbitrary Hermitian symmetric spaces starting from projective superspace. Using a systematic way of solving the (infinite number…

We construct supersymmetric field theories on Riemannian three-manifolds M, focusing on N=2 theories with a U(1)_R symmetry. Our approach is based on the rigid limit of new minimal supergravity in three dimensions, which couples to the…

We construct a (1,2) heterotic sigma model whose target space geometry consists of a transitive Lie algebroid with complex structure on a Kaehler manifold. We show that, under certain geometrical and topological conditions, there are two…

We construct the N=1 supersymmetric extension of double field theory for D=10, including the coupling to an arbitrary number n of abelian vector multiplets. This theory features a local O(1,9+n) x O(1,9) tangent space symmetry under which…

N-fold supersymmetry is an extension of the ordinary supersymmetry in one-dimensional quantum mechanics. One of its major property is quasi-solvability, which means that energy eigenvalues can be obtained for a portion of the spectra. We…

In this paper some properties of the irreducible multiplets of representation for the N = (p, q) - extended supersymmetry in one dimension are discussed. Essentially two results are here presented. At first a peculiar property of the one…

We discuss two dimensional N-extended supersymmetry in Euclidean signature and its R-symmetry. For N=2, the R-symmetry is SO(2)\times SO(1,1), so that only an A-twist is possible. To formulate a B-twist, or to construct Euclidean N=2 models…
