We formulate a conjecture for the three different Lax operators that describe the bosonic sectors of the three possible $N=2$ supersymmetric integrable hierarchies with $N=2$ super $W_n$ second hamiltonian structure. We check this…
An off-shell manifestly (8,0) worldsheet supersymmetric formulation of a multiplet describing physical chiral fermions is given. The multiplet can be used to complete the doubly supersymmetric (twistor-like) action for the heterotic string.…
In this paper we consider the N = 2 supergravity models in which the hypermultiplets realize the nonlinear sigma-models, corresponding to the nonsymmetric (but homogeneous) quaternionic manifolds. By exploiting the isometries of appropriate…
After adding seven auxiliary scalar fields, the action for ten-dimensional super-Yang-Mills contains an equal number of bosonic and fermionic non-gauge fields. Besides being manifestly Lorentz and gauge-invariant, this action contains nine…
The Hofstadter model exemplifies a large class of physical systems characterized by particles hopping on a lattice immersed in a gauge field. Recent advancements on various synthetic platforms have enabled highly-controllable simulations of…
We review some recent observations in theories with eight supercharges. We point out that such theories can be generalized by starting from the equations of motion rather than from an action. We show that vector multiplets constructed in…
It is presented a method of construction of sigma-models with target space geometries different from conformally flat ones. The method is based on a treating of a constancy of a coupling constant as a dynamical constraint following as an…
We derive the non-linear action of E8(8) on the constrained chiral superfield in the light-cone superspace with eight complex Grassmann variables. We construct (to lowest order in the coupling) the sixteen dynamical supersymmetries which…
We develop a complete off-shell Lagrangian description of the free $4D, {\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric theory of infinite spin. Bosonic and fermionic fields are formulated in terms of spin-tensor fields with dotted and undotted indices. The…
We describe a method for constructing genuinely asymmetric (2,0) heterotic strings out of N=2 minimal models in the fermionic sector, whereas the bosonic sector is only partly build out of N=2 minimal models. This is achieved by replacing…
We show that a simple change of the classical boson-fermion coupling constant, $2\alpha \to 2\alpha n $, $n\in \N$, in the superconformal mechanics model gives rise to a radical change of a symmetry: the modified classical and quantum…
We study N=1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories coupled to an adjoint chiral field with superpotential. We consider the full supersymmetric moduli space of these theories obtained by adding all allowed chiral operators. These include…
In this paper we reopen the discussion of gauging the two-dimensional off-shell (2,2) supersymmetric sigma models written in terms of semichiral superfields. The associated target space geometry of this particular sigma model is generalized…
We construct an example of supersymmetric Chern-Simons-matter theory with a matter field transforming as a singlet representation of the supersymmetry algebra, where the bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom do not match. This is…
We consider a four dimensional space-time symmetry which is a non trivial extension of the Poincar\'e algebra, different from supersymmetry and not contradicting {\sl a priori} the well-known no-go theorems. We investigate some field…
Several refinements are made in a theory which starts with a Planck-scale statistical picture and ends with supersymmetry and a coupling of fundamental fermions and bosons to SO(N) gauge fields. In particular, more satisfactory treatments…
We develop a systematic algorithm for constructing an N-fold supersymmetric system from a given vector space invariant under one of the supercharges. Applying this algorithm to spaces of monomials, we construct a new multi-parameter family…
Expanding upon earlier work of Pouliot and Strassler, we construct chiral magnetic duals to nonchiral supersymmetric electric theories based upon SO(7), SO(8) and SO(9) gauge groups with various numbers of vector and spinor matter…
In the present paper we constructed the supercharges and Hamiltonians for all variants of superconformal mechanics associated with the superalgebras $osp(8|2), {\mathfrak F(4)}, osp(4^\star |4)$, and $su(1,1|4)$. The fermionic and bosonic…
A well-defined local non-Abelian gauge connection involving a rank-p gauge B-field was introduced a decade ago. This was achieved by introducing doublet groups and doublet-assembled connections that can act on a doublet of matter fields,…
