In this paper we deal with branched coverings over the complement to finitely many exceptional points on the Riemann sphere having the property that the local monodromy around each of the branching points is of finite order. To such a…
We consider a reducible ${\cal N}=4$, $d=1$ multiplet described by a real superfield as a coupling of the mirror ${\bf (1, 4, 3)}$ and ordinary ${\bf (3, 4, 1)}$ multiplets. Employing this so-called "long multiplet", we construct a coupled…
For a general class of SO(4) symmetric backgrounds in type II-supergravity, we show that the action of non-Abelian T-duality can be described via consistent truncation to seven dimensional theories with seemingly massive modes. As such, any…
In these introductory lectures, we review the theoretical tools used in constructing supersymmetric field theories and their application to physical models. We first introduce the technology of two-component spinors, which is convenient for…
It is shown that the eigenproblem of any $2\times 2$ matrix Hamiltonian with discrete eigenvalues is involved with a supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The energy dependence of the superalgebra marks the disparity between the deduced…
When a globally supersymmetric theory is scale invariant, it must possess a Virial supercurrent supermultiplet. The multiplet structure is analogous to the R-current supermultiplet in globally R-symmetric theories but we put extra "$i$"s in…
We construct a large family of Euclidean supersymmetric wormhole solutions of type IIB supergravity which are asymptotically AdS$_5 \times S^5$. The solutions are constructed using consistent truncation to maximally gauged supergravity in…
We present a systematic classification of half-supersymmetric solutions of gauged N=2, D=5 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of abelian vector multiplets for which at least one of the Killing spinors generate a time-like Killing…
We study N=2 superconformal theories on Euclidean and Lorentzian four-manifolds with a view toward applications to holography and localization. The conditions for supersymmetry are equivalent to a set of differential constraints including a…
Starting with the first-order formulation of the massless superparticle model on the $AdS_5\times S^5$ superbackground and presenting the momentum components tangent to $AdS_5$ and $S^5$ subspaces as bilinear combinations of the constrained…
We construct spherical subgroups in infinite-dimensional classical groups $G$ (usually they are not symmetric and their finite-dimensional analogs are not spherical). We present a structure of a semigroup on double cosets $L\setminus G/L$…
By extending the six-dimensional hybrid formalism for the superstring to include $d=6$ $\mathcal{N}=1$ superspace variables along with unconstrained bosonic ghost fields, we construct a manifestly spacetime supersymmetric vertex operator…
The symmetry group structures of two dimensional coupled nonlinear Shr\"{o}dinger equations are considered. We first show that the equations admit infinite dimensional symmetry algebra as well as the corresponding symmetry group depending…
The projective variety of square-zero elements in the six-dimensional minimal supersymmetry algebra is isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^3$. We use this fact, together with the pure spinor superfield formalism, to study…
The relevance of the contracted SU(4) group as a symmetry group of the pion nucleon scattering amplitudes in the large $N_c$ limit of QCD raises the problem on the construction of effective Lagrangians for SU(4) supermultiplets. In the…
A graphical representation of supersymmetry is presented. It clearly expresses the chiral flow appearing in SUSY quantities, by representing spinors by {\it directed lines} (arrows). The chiral suffixes are expressed by the directions (up,…
A new local world volume supersymmetric Lagrangian for the bosonic membrane is presented. The starting Lagrangian is the one constructed by Dolan and Tchrakian with vanishing cosmological constant, with quadratic and quartic derivative…
Riemannian geometry in four dimensions naturally leads to an SL(3) connection that annihilates a basis for self-dual two-forms. Einstein's equations may be written in terms of an SO(3) connection, with SO(3) chosen as an appropriate…
This short note contains a combinatorial construction of symmetries arising in symplectic geometry (partially wrapped or infinitesimal Fukaya categories), algebraic geometry (derived categories of singularities), and K-theory (Waldhausen's…
We consider a wide class of two-dimensional metrics having one Killing vector. The method is proposed for the construction of maximally extended surfaces with the given Riemannian metric which is the analog of the conformal block method for…
