Adinkras are diagrams that describe many useful supermultiplets in D=1 dimensions. We show that the topology of the Adinkra is uniquely determined by a doubly even code. Conversely, every doubly even code produces a possible topology of an…

Adinkras are a graphical depiction of representations of the N-extended supersymmetry algebra in one dimension, on the worldline. These diagrams represent the component fields in a supermultiplet as vertices, and the action of the…

We present a symbolic method for organizing the representation theory of one-dimensional superalgebras. This relies on special objects, which we have called adinkra symbols, which supply tangible geometric forms to the still-emerging…

We create an algorithm to determine whether any two graphical representations (adinkras) of equations possessing the property of supersymmetry in one or two dimensions are isomorphic in shape. The algorithm is based on the determinant of…

An Adinkra is a graph from the study of supersymmetry in particle physics, but it can be adapted to study Clifford algebra representations. The graph in this context is called a Cliffordinkra, and puts some standard ideas in Clifford…

Adinkras are signed graphs used to study supersymmetry in physics. We provide an introduction to these objects, and study the properties of their signed adjacency and signed Laplacian matrices. These matrices each have exactly two distinct…

An Adinkra is a class of graphs with certain signs marking its vertices and edges, which encodes off-shell representations of the super Poincar\'e algebra. The markings on the vertices and edges of an Adinkra are cochains for cubical…
