We construct the spin foam model for N=2 supergravity in three dimensions. Classically, it is a BF theory with gauge algebra osp(2|2). This algebra has representations which are not completely reducible. This complicates the procedure when…

N-particle quantum mechanics described by a sigma model with an N-dimensional target space with torsion is considered. It is shown that an SL(2,R) conformal symmetry exists if and only if the geometry admits a homothetic Killing vector…

Solvability of the ubiquitous quantum harmonic oscillator relies on a spectrum generating osp(1|2) superconformal symmetry. We study the problem of constructing all quantum mechanical models with a hidden osp(1|2) symmetry on a given space…

We derive and discuss a new type of N=2 supersymmetric quantum mechanical sigma models which appear when the superfield action of the (1,2,1) multiplets is modified by adding an imaginary antisymmetric tensor to the target space metric,…

We propose a new reduction mechanism which allows one to construct n-particle (super)conformal theories with pairwise interaction starting from a composite system involving n(n-1)/2+1 copies of the ordinary (super)conformal mechanics.…

The exactly and quasi-exactly solvable problems for spin one-half in one dimension on the basis of a hidden dynamical symmetry algebra of Hamiltonian are discussed. We take the supergroup, $OSP(2|1)$, as such a symmetry. A number of exactly…

We show that a simple change of the classical boson-fermion coupling constant, $2\alpha \to 2\alpha n $, $n\in \N$, in the superconformal mechanics model gives rise to a radical change of a symmetry: the modified classical and quantum…

A construction of supersymmetric field-theoretical models in non-commutative geometry is reviewed. The underlying superstructure of the models is encoded in $osp(2,2)$ superalgebra.

This paper is the next step of an ambitious program to develop conformally equivariant quantization on supermanifolds. This problem was considered so far in (super)dimensions 1 and 1|1. We will show that the case of several odd variables is…

We show that a Hamiltonian reduction of affine Lie superalgebras having bosonic simple roots (such as $OSp(1|4)$) ``does'' produce supersymmetric Toda models, with superconformal symmetry being nonlinearly realised for those fields of the…
