The bosonic parts of D3-brane actions in AdS(5) backgrounds are known to have symmetries which are field-dependent extensions of conformal transformations of the worldvolume coordinates. Using the coset space SU(2,2|1)/SO(4,1), we apply the…

Spontaneous breaking of global supersymmetries results in Goldstino fields which provide a nonlinear realisation of the supersymmetry algebra. A finite supersymmetry transformation of a Goldstino field can be used to generate a superfield…
We outline, on a few instructive examples, the characteristic features of the approach to superbranes and super Born-Infeld theories based on the concept of partial spontaneous breaking of global supersymmetry (PBGS). The examples include…
We construct a nonlinear version of the d=1 off-shell N=8 multiplet (4,8,4), proceeding from a nonlinear realization of the superconformal group OSp(4*|4) in the N=8, d=1 analytic bi-harmonic superspace. The new multiplet is described by a…
We describe the spontaneous partial breaking of $N=1 D=10$ supersymmetry to $N=(1,0) d=6$ and its dimensionally-reduced versions in the framework of the nonlinear realizations method. The basic Goldstone superfield is $N=(1,0) d=6$…
We construct low-energy Goldstone superfield actions describing various patterns of the partial spontaneous breakdown of two-dimensional N=(1,1), N=(2,0) and N=(2,2) supersymmetries, with the main focus on the last case. These nonlinear…
Among the solutions of string theory and supergravity which preserve some fraction of supersymmetry, the best known are those that leave one half of the supersymmetry unbroken, and there is a large number of field theory models with this…
We explicitly construct N=4 worldline supersymmetric minimal off-shell actions for five options of 1/2 partial spontaneous breaking of $N=8, d=1$ Poincar\'e supersymmetry. We demonstrate that the action for the N=4 Goldstone supermultiplet…
We elaborate on a new N=2, d=3 supermultiplet (double-vector multiplet) with a non-trivial off-shell realization of the central charge. Its bosonic sector comprises two abelian gauge vector fields forming an SO(2) vector. We present a…
We describe the partial breaking of $N=1 D=10$ supersymmetry down to $(1,0) d=6$ supersymmetry within the non-linear realization approach. The basic Goldstone superfield associated with this breaking is shown to be the $(1,0) d=6$…
We investigate the nonlinear realization of partially broken $N$=2 global supersymmetry in the D=2 and 3 anti de-Sitter (AdS) space. We particularly study Nambu-Goldstone degrees of freedom for the $N$=2 AdS supersymmetry partially broken…
In the present paper we explicitly construct the on-shell supersymmetric component action for a 3-brane moving in D=8 within the nonlinear realizations framework. Similarly to the previously considered case of the super 3-brane in D=6, all…
It is advocated that the superembedding approach is a generic covariant method for the description of superbranes as models of (partial) spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. As an illustration we construct (in the framework of…
D$p$-branes acquire effective nonlinear descriptions whose bosonic part is related to the Born-Infeld action. This nonlinearity has been proven to be a consequence of the partial ${\cal N}=2\to{\cal N}=1$ supersymmetry breaking, originating…
We derive new actions for the bosonic p-brane, super p-brane and the p-brane moving in AdS(dS) space-times using the theory of non-linear realisation without requiring the adoption of any constraints or using superfields. The Goldstone…
Proceeding from a nonlinear realization of the most general N=4, d=1 superconformal symmetry, associated with the supergroup D(2,1;alpha), we construct a new model of nonrelativistic N=4 superconformal mechanics. In the bosonic sector it…
