In this work, we investigate possible supersymmetric extensions of the Carrollian algebra and the Carrollian conformal algebra in both $d=4$ and $d=3$. For the super-Carrollian algebra in $d=4$, we identify multiple admissible structures,…

We demonstrate that the supersymmetry is dynamically broken in the four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory coupled to a strongly-coupled superconformal theory T_N. This is a direct generalization of the model of supersymmetry breaking on…

We introduce a new, Kac--Moody-flavoured construction for Lie superalgebras, which incorporates phenomena of the type Q (queer) Lie superalgebra. This is done by replacing a maximal even torus by the most general possible Cartan subalgebra…

Coset constructions of $\mathcal{W}$-algebras have many applications, and were recently given for principal $\mathcal{W}$-algebras of $A$, $D$, and $E$ types by Arakawa together with the first and third authors. In this paper, we give coset…

We construct in detail an N=1, D=4 superspace with the superconformal algebra as the structure group and discuss its relation to prior component approaches and the existing Poincar\'e superspaces.

We discuss super Schrodinger algebras with less supercharges from N=4 superconformal algebra psu(2,2|4). Firstly N=2 and N=1 superconformal algebras are constructed from the psu(2,2|4) via projection operators. Then a super Schrodinger…

We present a general method for computing the central charges a and c of N=2 superconformal field theories corresponding to singular points in the moduli space of N=2 gauge theories. Our method relates a and c to the U(1)_R anomalies of the…

We define a 3-algebra with structure constants being symmetric in the first two indices. We also introduce an invariant anti-symmetric tensor into this 3-algebra and call it a symplectic 3-algebra. The general N=5 superconformal…

We propose two new realizations of the N=4, $\hat{c}=4$ superconformal system based on the compact and non-compact versions of parafermionic algebras. The target space interpretation of these systems is given in terms of four-dimensional…

The N=4, d=4 Yang-Mills conformal supersymmetry exhibits a very simple sub-sector described by four differential operators. The invariance under this subalgebra is big enough to determine the N=4 theory. Some attempts are done to interpret…

We determine the ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric $W_{1+\infty}^{2,2}[\lambda=\frac{1}{4}]$ algebra which is an extension of ${\cal N}=4$ $SO(4)$ superconformal algebra with vanishing central charge. We identify the soft current algebra between…

Nonstandard parafermions are built and their central charges and dimensions are calculated. We then construct new N=2 superconformal field theories by tensoring the parafermions with a free boson. We study the spectrum and modular…

Reductive W-algebras which are generated by bosonic fields of spin-1, a single spin-2 field and fermionic fields of spin-3/2 are classified. Three new cases are found: a `symplectic' family of superconformal algebras which are extended by…

We study the properties of 4d N=3 superconformal field theories whose rank is one, i.e. those that reduce to a single vector multiplet on their moduli space of vacua. We find that the moduli space can only be of the form C^3/Z_k for…

In this note we study four dimensional theories with N=3 superconformal symmetry, that do not also have N=4 supersymmetry. No examples of such theories are known, but their existence is also not ruled out. We analyze several properties that…

A list of superconformal chiral operator product expansion algebras with quadratic nonlinearity in two dimensions is completed on the basis of the known classification of little conformal Lie superalgebras. In addition to the previously…

Odd, positive-definite, integral, unimodular lattices N of rank 24 were classified by Borcherds. There are 273 isometry classes of such lattices. Associated to them are vertex superalgebras $V_N$ of central charge c=24. We show that at…

The super-AdS_5 X S^5 and the four-dimensional N=4 superconformal algebras play important roles in superstring theories. It is often discussed the roles of the osp(1|32) algebra as a maximal extension of the superalgebras in flat…

We examine the problem of constructing N=2 superconformal algebras out of N=1 non-semi-simple affine Lie algebras. These N=2 superconformal theories share the property that the super Virasoro central charge depends only on the dimension of…

We shall first present an explicit realization of the simple $N=4$ superconformal vertex algebra $L_{c} ^{N=4}$ with central charge $c=-9$. This vertex superalgebra is realized inside of the $ b c \beta \gamma $ system and contains a…
