We construct new models of N=8 superconformal mechanics associated with the off-shell N=8, d=1 supermultiplets (3,8,5) and (5,8,3). These two multiplets are derived as N=8 Goldstone superfields and correspond to nonlinear realizations of…
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…
Proceeding from nonlinear realizations of the most general N=4, d=1 superconformal symmetry associated with the supergroup D(2,1;\alpha), we construct all known and two new off-shell N=4, d=1 supermultiplets as properly constrained N=4…
Using an N=4, d=1 superfield approach, we construct an N=8 supersymmetric action of the self-interacting off-shell N=8 multiplet {\bf (1, 8, 7)}. This action is found to be invariant under the exceptional N=8, d=1 superconformal group F(4)…
We construct a variety of off-shell $N{=}8, d{=}1$ supermultiplets with finite numbers of component fields as direct sums of properly constrained $N{=}4, d{=}1$ superfields. We also show how these multiplets can be described in $N{=}8,…
We computed the actions for the 1D N=5 sigma-models with respect to the two inequivalent (2,8,6) multiplets. 4 supersymmetry generators are manifest, while the constraint originated by imposing the 5-th supersymmetry automatically induces a…
We define two new indecomposable (not fully reducible) ${\cal N}=8$, $d=1$ off-shell multiplets and consider the corresponding models of ${\cal N}=8$ supersymmetric mechanics with spin variables. Each multiplet is described off shell by a…
We construct new models of `curved' SU$(4|1)$ supersymmetric mechanics based on two versions of the off-shell multiplet ${\bf(8,8,0)}$ which are `mirror' to each other. The worldline realizations of the supergroup SU$(4|1)$ are treated as a…
We construct a new off-shell $\mathcal{N}{=}4$, $d{=}3$ nonlinear vector supermultiplet. The irreducibility constraints for the superfields leave in this supermultiplet the same component content as in the ordinary linear vector…
We present a new multiparticle model of $\mathcal{N}{=}\,8$ mechanics with superconformal $F(4)$ symmetry. The system is constructed in terms of two matrix $\mathcal{N}{=}\,4$ multiplets. One of them is a bosonic matrix $({\bf 1, 4, 3})$…
We construct the non-minimal linear representations of the N=4 Extended Supersymmetry in one-dimension. They act on 8 bosonic and 8 fermionic fields. Inequivalent representations are specified by the mass-dimension of the fields and the…
We propose a unified superfield formulation of N=4 off-shell supermultiplets in one spacetime dimension using the standard N=4 superspace. The main idea of our approach is a "gluing" together of two linear supermultiplets along their…
We present new explicit realizations of the most general N=4, d=1 superconformal symmetry D(2,1;\alpha) in the models of N=4 superconformal mechanics based on the reducible multiplets (1,4,3)\oplus(0,4,4), (3,4,1)\oplus(0,4,4) and…
The ${\cal N}{=}8, 1D$ analytic bi-harmonic superspace is shown to provide a natural setting for ${\cal N}{=}8$ supersymmetric mechanics associated with the off-shell multiplet ${\bf (4, 8, 4)}$ . The latter is described by an analytic…
We introduce a new kind of non-relativistic ${\cal N}{=}\,8$ supersymmetric mechanics, associated with worldline realizations of the supergroup $SU(2|2)$ treated as a deformation of flat ${\cal N}{=}\,8$, $d{=}1$ supersymmetry. Various…
We present a new model of $\mathcal{N}{=}\,8$ mechanics with semi-dynamic supermultiplets. The model is constructed as an interaction of $\mathcal{N}{=}\,4$ supermultiplets which carry an implicit $\mathcal{N}{=}\,4$ supersymmetry. The…
We construct manifestly ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric off-shell superfield actions for the HKT $d=1$ sigma models on the group manifolds U(2) and SU(3), using the harmonic $d=1$ approach. The underlying $({\bf 4, 4, 0})$ and $({\bf 4, 4,…
Using superspace projection operators we provide a classification of (3/2,2) off-shell supermultiplets which are realized in terms of a real axial vector superfield, with or without compensating superfields. Any linearized supergravity…
We study the unitary supermultiplets of the N=4 d=7 anti-de Sitter (AdS_7) superalgebra OSp(8^*|4), with the even subalgebra SO(6,2) X USp(4), which is the symmetry superalgebra of M-theory on AdS_7 X S^4. We give a complete classification…
