It is shown that vielbeins and connections of any (super)space are naturally described in terms of nonlinear realizations of infinite - dimensional diffeomorphism groups of the corresponding (super)space. The method of construction of…
Using the coset approach (nonlinear realization) we construct component actions for a superparticle in three-dimensional spacetime with N=4 supersymmetry partially broken to N=2. These actions may contain an anyonic term and the square of…

Non--Abelian duality in relation to supersymmetry is examined. When the action of the isometry group on the complex structures is non--trivial, extended supersymmetry is realized non--locally after duality, using path ordered Wilson lines.…

In this work, we promote the global $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ symmetry of the Schwarzian derivative to a local gauge symmetry. To achieve this, we develop a procedure that potentially can be generalized beyond the $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ case: We first…
We discuss the N=2 extension of Polyakov-Bershadsky $W_3^{(2)}$ algebra with the generic central charge, $c$, at the quantum level in superspace. It contains, in addition to the spin 1 N=2 stress tensor, the spins $1/2, 2$ bosonic and spins…

Dynamical systems which are invariant under N=1 supersymmetric extension of the l-conformal Galilei algebra are constructed. These include a free N=1 superparticle which is governed by higher derivative equations of motion and an N=1…
A new heterotic N=2 string with manifest target space supersymmetry is constructed by combining a conventional N=2 string in the right-moving sector and a Green-Schwarz-Berkovits type string in the left-moving sector. The corresponding…
A discussion of the number of degrees of freedom, and their dynamical properties, in higher-derivative gravitational theories is presented. The complete non-linear sigma model for these degrees of freedom is exhibited using the method of…
We establish that in a large class of strongly coupled 3+1 dimensional N=1 quiver conformal field theories with gravity duals, adding a chemical potential for the R-charge leads to the existence of superfluid states in which a chiral…

We consider differential operators on a supermanifold of dimension $1|1$. We define non-degenerate operators as those with an invertible top coefficient in the expansion in the "superderivative" $D$ (which is the square root of the shift…
The concept of self-dual supersymmetric nonlinear electrodynamics is generalized to a curved superspace of N = 1 supergravity, for both the old minimal and the new minimal versions of N = 1 supergravity. We derive the self-duality equation,…
