In this paper we revisit the construction of supersymmetric Schwarzians using nonlinear realizations. We show that ${\cal N}=0,1,2,3,4$ supersymmetric Schwarzians can be systematically obtained as certain projections of Maurer-Cartan forms…
We compute part of the superfield in terms of the component fields of 11-dimensional on-shell supergravity by using `Gauge completion' in 2nd-order formalism. The result is the same as was derived recently in 1.5-order formalism by B. de…
We use invariance theory to compute the divergence term $a_{m+2,m}^{d+\delta}$ in the super trace for the twisted de Rham complex for a closed Riemannian manifold.
Motivated by the definition of super-Teichm\"uller spaces, and Penner-Zeitlin's recent extension of this definition to decorated super-Teichm\"uller space, as examples of super Riemann surfaces, we use the super Ptolemy relations to obtain…
A survey of some recent and important results which have to do with integrable equations and their relationship with the theory of surfaces is given. Some new results are also presented. The concept of the moving frame is examined, and it…
It is known that the excitations in graphene-like materials in external electromagnetic field are described by solutions of massless two-dimensional Dirac equation which includes both Hermitian off-diagonal matrix and scalar potentials. Up…

We discuss the appearance of Jacobi automorphic forms in the theory of superconformal vertex algebras, explaining it by way of supercurves and formal geometry. We touch on related topics such as Ramanujan's differential equations for…
Skew-symmetric differential forms play an unique role in mathematics and mathematical physics. This relates to the fact that closed exterior skew-symmetric differential forms are invariants. The concept of "Exterior differential forms" was…
A simple quantum superfield generating equation of the field-antifield formalism is proposed. The Schroedinger equation with the Hamiltonian having $\Delta$-exact form is derived. An $Sp(2)$ symmetric extension to the main construction,…
We propose a manifestly supersymmetric generalization of the solvable $T \overline{T}$ deformation of two-dimensional field theories. For theories with $(1,1)$ and $(0,1)$ supersymmetry, the deformation is defined by adding a term to the…
The correlation functions of supersymmetric gauge theories on a four-manifold X can sometimes be expressed in terms of topological invariants of X. We show how the existence of superconformal fixed points in the gauge theory can provide…
In modern mathematical and theoretical physics various generalizations, in particular supersymmetric or quantum, of Riemann surfaces and complex algebraic curves play a prominent role. We show that such supersymmetric and quantum…
Deformations of the 3-differential of 3-differential graded algebras are controlled by the (3,N) Maurer-Cartan equation. We find explicit formulae for the coefficients appearing in that equation, introduce new geometric examples of…
It was recently demonstrated that super-Schwarzian derivatives can be constructed from the Cartan forms of the super-conformal supergroups $OSp(1|2),SU(1,1|1), OSp(3|2), SU(1,1|2)$. Roughly speaking, the super-Schwarzian is just the…
