Starting from N=1 scalar and vector supermultiplets in 2+1 dimensions, we construct superfields which constitute Lagrangians invariant under N=2 supersymmetries. We first recover the N=2 supersymmetric Abelian-Higgs model and then the N=2…
We study the partial breaking of ${\cal N}=2$ global supersymmetry, using a novel formalism that allows for the off-shell nonlinear realization of the broken supersymmetry, extending previous results scattered in the literature. We focus on…
We study four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory on the noncommutative superspace, recently proposed by Seiberg. We construct the gauge-invariant action of N=1 super Yang-Mills theory with chiral and antichiral superfields, which has…
The general form of N=2 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets and hypermultiplets, with a generic gauging of the scalar manifold isometries is given. This extends the results already available in the literature in…
One of the simplest examples of non-invertible symmetries in higher dimensions appears in 4d Maxwell theory, where its $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ duality group can be combined with gauging subgroups of its electric and magnetic 1-form symmetries to…
We discuss infinite-dimensional hidden symmetry algebras (and hence an infinite number of conserved nonlocal charges) of the N-extented self-dual super Yang-Mills equations for general N\leq4 by using the supertwistor correspondence.…
We investigate the nonlinear realization of spontaneously broken N=2 superconformal symmetry in 4 dimensions. We particularly study Nambu-Goldstone degrees of freedom for the partial breaking of N=2 superconformal symmetry down to N=1…
We identify a cubic holomorphic constraint that subtends the total breaking of N=2 supersymmetry in a vector multiplet and exhibit its microscopic origin. The new constraint leaves behind, at low energies, a vector and the two goldstini, in…
We study orbifolds of ${\cal N} = 4$ U(n) super-Yang-Mills theory given by discrete subgroups of SU(2) and SU(3). We have reached many interesting observations that have graph-theoretic interpretations. For the subgroups of SU(2), we have…
We analyze constrained superfields in supergravity. We investigate the consistency and solve all known constraints, presenting a new class that may have interesting applications in the construction of inflationary models. We provide the…
We consider the modified superfield constraints with constant terms for the D=3, N=2 Goldstone-Maxwell gauge multiplet which contains Goldstone fermions, real scalar and vector fields. The partial spontaneous breaking N=2 to N=1 is possible…
We derive the $N=2$ and $4$ super Yang-Mills theories from the viewpoint of the $M_4\times Z_2\times Z_2$ gauge theory. Scalars and pseudoscalars appearing in the theories are regarded as gauge fields along the directions on $Z_2\times Z_2$…
We propose new off-shell models for spontaneously broken local ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetry, in which the supergravity multiplet couples to nilpotent Goldstino superfields that contain either a gauge one-form or a gauge two-form in addition…
We use nonlinear realizations to describe the spontaneous breaking of $N=2$ supersymmetry to $N=1$ in four dimensions. We identify the Goldstone multiplet with an $N=1$ chiral superfield, and show that chiral $N=1$ matter is consistent with…
In the framework of superfield formalism, we demonstrate the existence of a new local, covariant, continuous and nilpotent (dual-BRST) symmetry for the BRST invariant Lagrangian density of a self-interacting two ($1 + 1$)-dimensional (2D)…
The partial spontaneous breaking of rigid N=2 supersymmetry implies the existence of a massless N=1 Goldstone multiplet. In this paper we show that the spin-(1/2,1) Maxwell multiplet can play this role. We construct its full nonlinear…
Supersymmetry is one of the possible scenarios for physics beyond the standard model. The building blocks of this scenario are supersymmetric gauge theories. In our work we study the $\mathcal{N}=1$ Super-Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with gauge…
It is known that Yang-Mills theories on non-commutative space can be derived from large-N reduced models. Gauge fields in non-commutative Yang-Mills theories can be described as fluctuations of matrices expanded about an appropriate…
We present a non-linear MSSM with non-standard Higgs sector and goldstino field. Non-linear supersymmetry for the goldstino couplings is described by the constrained chiral superfield and, as usual, the Standard Model sector is encompassed…
We construct Supergravity models where the goldstino multiplet has a gravitational origin, being dual to the chiral curvature superfield. Supersymmetry is nonlinearly realized due to a nilpotent constraint, while the goldstino arises from…
