This paper reports the investigation of a matrix model via super Lie algebra, following the proposal of L. Smolin. We consider the osp(1|32,R) nongauged matrix model and gl(1|32,R) gauged matrix model, especially paying attention to the…
We consider the problem of creating locally supersymmetric theories in signature (10,2). The most natural algebraic starting point is the F-algebra, which is the de Sitter-type (10,2) extension of the super-Poincare algebra. We derive the…
On the basis of the Berkovits pure spinor formalism of covariant quantization of supermembrane, we attempt to construct a M(atrix) theory which is covariant under $SO(1,10)$ Lorentz group. We first construct a bosonic M(atrix) theory by…
We construct quasi-solvable quantum mechanical matrix models by employing two different methods, the one is universal enveloping algebra of Lie superalgebra and the other is N-fold supersymmetry. For the former we examine the q(2) and…
By extending the algebraic description of the bosonic rank-three tensor models, a general framework for super rank-three tensor models and correspondence to super fuzzy spaces is proposed. The corresponding super fuzzy spaces must satisfy a…
We classify symmetric backgrounds of eleven-dimensional supergravity up to local isometry. In other words, we classify triples (M,g,F), where (M,g) is an eleven-dimensional lorentzian locally symmetric space and F is an invariant 4-form,…
In this paper we generalize the work of Lin, Lunin and Maldacena on the classification of 1/2-BPS M-theory solutions to a specific class of 1/4-BPS configurations. We are interested in the solutions of 11 dimensional supergravity with…
We formulate a superspace field theory which is shown to be equivalent to the $c-\bar{c}$ symmetric BRS/Anti-BRS invariant Yang-Mills action. The theory uses a 6-dimensional superspace and one OSp(3,1|2) vector multiplet of unconstrained…
The supergroup OSp(8*|4), which is the superconformal group of (2,0) theory in six dimensions, is broken to the subgroup OSp(4|2)xOSp(4|2) by demanding the invariance of a certain product in a superspace with eight bosonic and four…
A possible way of defining M theory as the CS theory for the supergroup $OSp(1|32)\times OSp(1|32)$ is investigated, based on the approach by Horava in hep-th/9712130. In the high energy limit (expansion in M), where only the highest…
Using parafermionic field theoretical methods, the fundamentals of 2d fractional supersymmetry ${\bf Q}^{K} =P$ are set up. Known difficulties induced by methods based on the $U_{q}(sl(2))$ quantum group representations and non commutative…
In this paper, we consider solutions and spectral functions of M-theory from Milne spaces with extra free dimensions. Conformal deformations to the metric associated with the real hyperbolic space forms are derived. For the…
We give an explicit algebraic description of finite Lorentz transformations of vectors in 10-dimensional Minkowski space by means of a parameterization in terms of the octonions. The possible utility of these results for superstring theory…
The super-AdS_5 X S^5 and the four-dimensional N=4 superconformal algebras play important roles in superstring theories. It is often discussed the roles of the osp(1|32) algebra as a maximal extension of the superalgebras in flat…
In this work, we present a systematic classification of supersymmetric extensions of the BMS$_4$ algebra and their realizations in free field theories. By requiring that supercharges admit finite-dimensional subsectors, we identify ten…
Supersymmetric field theories on noncommutative spaces are constructed. We present two different representations of noncommutative space, but we can obtain supersymmetry algebla and supersymmetric Yang-Mills action independent of its…
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…
We show how super BF theory in any dimension can be quantized as a spin foam model, generalizing the situation for ordinary BF theory. This is a first step toward quantizing supergravity theories. We investigate in particular 3-dimensional…
In string or M theories, the spontaneous breaking of 10D or 11D Lorentz symmetry is required to describe our space-time. A direct approach to this issue is provided by the IIB matrix model. We study its 4D version, which corresponds to the…
We realize the 16 unbroken supersymmetries on a BPS D-brane as invariances of the action of the corresponding open superstring field theory. We work in the small Hilbert space approach, where a symmetry of the action translates into a…
