We define an index for $\mathfrak{osp}(4^{*}|4)$ superconformal quantum mechanics on a hyperK\"{a}hler cone. The index is defined on an equivariant symplectic resolution of the cone, which acts as a regulator. We present evidence that the…

Representations of four dimensional superconformal groups are constructed as fields on many different superspaces, including super Minkowski space, chiral superspace, harmonic superspace and analytic superspace. Any unitary irreducible…

We study the group properties and the similarity solutions for the constraint conditions of anti-self-dual null K\"{a}hler four-dimensional manifolds with at least a Killing symmetry vector. Specifically we apply the theory of Lie…

We consider strict and complete nearly Kaehler manifolds with the canonical Hermitian connection. The holonomy representation of the canonical Hermitian connection is studied. We show that a strict and complete nearly Kaehler is locally a…

This paper examines 8-dimensional Riemannian manifolds whose structure group reduces to ${SO(4)}_{ir}\subset GL(8,\mathbb R)$, the image of an irreducible representation of $SO(4)$ on $\mathbb R^8$. We demonstrate that such a reduction can…

Using a new manner to rescale fields in $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauged supergravity with n$_{V}$ vector multiplets and n$_{H}$ hypermultiplets, we develop the explicit derivation of the rigid limit of quaternionic isometry Ward identities agreeing…

We prove that a compact quaternionic-K\"{a}hler manifold of dimension $4n\geq 8$ admitting a conformal-Killing 2-form which is not Killing, is isomorphic to the quaternionic projective space, with its standard quaternionic-K\"{a}hler…

We introduce N-extended (p,q) AdS superspaces in three space-time dimensions, with p+q=N and p>=q, and analyse their geometry. We show that all (p,q) AdS superspaces with X^{IJKL}=0 are conformally flat. Nonlinear sigma-models with (p,q)…

We consider four-dimensional $N=2$ supergravity coupled to vector- and hypermultiplets, where abelian isometries of the quaternionic K\"ahler hypermultiplet scalar manifold are gauged. Using the recipe given by Meessen and Ort\'{\i}n in…

HyperK\"ahler spaces, including manifolds, orbifolds and conical singularities play an important role in superstring/$M$-theory and gauge theories as well as in differential and algebraic geometry. In this paper we provide hundreds of new…

Using a geometric realization of the $SU(2)_R$ symmetry and a procedure of factorisation of the gauge and $SU(2)_R$ charges, we study the small instanton singularities of the Higgs branch of supersymmetric $U(1)^r$ gauge theories with eight…

We construct the most general four-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number $n$ of vector multiplets in which the global scaling symmetry is gauged, in addition to a subgroup of $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{R}) \times…

The construction of new hyper-Kaehler manifolds by taking the infinite monopole mass limit of certain Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield monopole moduli spaces is considered. The one-parameter family of hyperkaehler manifolds due to Dancer is…

We classify the moduli spaces of the four-dimensional topological half-flat gravity models by using the canonical bundle. For a K3-surface or four-dimensional torus, they describe an equivalent class of a trio of the Einstein-Kahler forms (…

We generalize the standard $N=2$ supersymmetric Kazama-Suzuki coset construction to the $N=4$ case by requiring the {\it non-linear} (Goddard-Schwimmer) $N=4~$ quasi-superconformal algebra to be realized on cosets. The constraints that we…

Building on the five-dimensional constructions in hep-th/0601177, we provide a unified description of four-dimensional N = 2 superconformal off-shell multiplets in projective superspace, including a realization in terms of N = 1…

Let group generators having finite-dimensional representation be realized as Hermitian linear differential operators without nhomogeneous terms as takes place, for example, for the SO(n) group. Then orresponding group Hamiltonians…

We show that the hyperkahler geometry of $T^*\mathbb{CP}^{n-1}$ can be described algebraically by the affine scheme of rank-1 projections, and that this description simultaneously yields explicit $SU(n)$-equivariant isometric embeddings \[…

The worldvolume theory of D3-branes probing four D7-branes and an O7-plane on $\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ is given by a supersymmetric USp x USp gauge theory. We demonstrate that, at least for a particular choice of the holonomy at…
