The hierarchical nonlinear super-differential equations are identified which describe universal behavior of the discretized model of $2d$ supergravity recently proposed. This is done by first taking a double scaling limit of the super…
We establish the equivalence of a 2D contour dynamics to the dispersionless limit of the integrable Toda hierarchy constrained by a string equation. Remarkably, the same hierarchy underlies 2D quantum gravity.
The formalism of integrable mappings is applied to the problem of constructing hierarchies of $(1+2)$ dimensional integrable systems in the $(2|2)$ superspace. We find new supersymmetric integrable mappings and corresponding to them new…
The integrable structure of the two dimensional superconformal field theory is considered. The classical counterpart of our constructions is based on the $\hat{osp}(1|2)$ super-KdV hierarchy. The quantum version of the monodromy matrix…

(Talk given at Strings '93, Berkeley, and at XXVII. Internationales Symposium \"uber Elementarteilchentheorie, Wendisch-Rietz, 1993) We review the superconformal properties of matter coupled to $2d$ gravity, and $W$-extensions thereof. We…
A $D>2$ topological string is presented by coupling the $2d$ topological gravity with the twisted version of the $N=2$ superconformal matter with $c=3k/(k-2)$. The latter is shown to admit $k+1$ chiral primary fields from the…
A hierarchy of $\mathbb{Z}_2^2$-graded integrable equations is constructed using the loop extension of the $\mathbb{Z}_2^2$-graded Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$. This hierarchy includes $\mathbb{Z}_2^2$-graded extensions of the…
The conformal symmetry SO(d,2) of the massless particle in d dimensions, or superconformal symmetry OSp(N|4), SU(2,2|N), OSp(8|N) of the superparticle in d=3,4,6 dimensions respectively, had been previously understood as the global Lorentz…
A new Lax operator is proposed from the viewpoint of constructing the integrable hierarchies related with N=2 super $W_n$ algebra. It is shown that the Poisson algebra associated to the second Hamiltonian structure for the resulted…
We study a 5d gravity theory with a warped metric and show that two N = 2 supersymmetric quantum-mechanical systems are hidden in the 4d spectrum. The supersymmetry can be regarded as a remnant of higher-dimensional general coordinate…
A review of the appearence of integrable structures in the matrix model description of $2d$-gravity is presented. Most of ideas are demonstrated at the technically simple but ideologically important examples. Matrix models are considered as…
We present an action for chiral $N=(1,0)$ supergravity in $2+2$ dimensions. The fields of the theory are organized into an $OSp(1|4)$ connection supermatrix, and are given by the usual vierbein $V^a$, spin connection $\omega^{ab}$, and…
We propose a holographic duality between a 2 dimensional (2d) chiral superconformal field theory and a certain theory of supergravity in 3d with flatspace boundary conditions that is obtained as a double scaling limit of a parity breaking…
We describe actions that correspond to the interaction of the Super Virasoro algebra with supergravitons. These new field theories introduce a superfield that corresponds to dual elements of the super Virasoro algebra. We are also able to…
We reconstruct type II supergravities by using building blocks of $O(d) \times O(d)$ invariants.These invariants are obtained by explicitly analyzing $O(d) \times O(d)$ transformations of 10 dimensional massless fields. Similar…
In an earlier paper we studied the infinite-dimensional symmetries of symmetric-space sigma models (SSMs) in a flat two-dimensional spacetime. Here, we extend our investigation to the case of two-dimensional SSMs coupled to gravity. These…
