A manifestly Poincare invariant formulations for $SO(1,10)$ and SO(2,9) superstring actions are proposed. The actions are invariant under a local fermionic $\kappa$-symmetry as well as under a number of global symmetries, which turn out to…
We discuss an extension of the super-Poincar\'e algebra in $D=11$ which includes an extra fermionic charge and super two-form charges. We give a geometrical reformulation of the $D=11$ supermembrane action which is manifestly invariant…
We suggest a D=11 super Poincar\'e invariant action for the superstring which has free dynamics in the physical variables sector. Instead of the standard approach based on the searching for an action with local $\kappa$-symmetry (or,…
We discuss manifestly SL(2,C)x SU(4) and kappa invariant superstring action in AdS(5) x S(5) background in the framework of Green-Schwarz formulation. The action is formulated in terms of 16 Poincare fermionic coordinates which through…

It has long been appreciated that superalgebras with bosonic and fermionic generators additional to those in the super-Poincare algebra underlie p-brane and D-brane actions in superstring theory. These algebras have been revealed via…
We formulate world-volume actions that describe the dynamics of Dirichlet p-branes in a flat 10d background. The fields in these theories consist of the 10d superspace coordinates and an abelian world-volume gauge field. The global…
Dynamical systems which are invariant under N=1 supersymmetric extension of the l-conformal Galilei algebra are constructed. These include a free N=1 superparticle which is governed by higher derivative equations of motion and an N=1…
An action for 3+1-dimensional supergravity genuinely invariant under the Poincare supergroup is proposed. The construction of the action is carried out considering a bosonic lagrangian invariant under both local Lorentz rotations and local…
A version of the kappa-symmetric super D-p-brane action is presented in which the tension is a dynamical variable, equal to the flux of a p-form worldvolume gauge field. The Lagrangian is shown to be invariant under all (super)isometries of…
In this article we derive the full interacting effective actions for supersymmetric D-branes in arbitrary bosonic type II supergravity backgrounds. The actions are presented in terms of component fields up to second order in fermions. As…
Actions for two-superparticle system in (10,2) dimensions and three-superparticle systems in (11,3) dimensions are constructed. These actions have worldline bosonic and fermionic local symmetries, and target space global supersymmety…
We use the additional variables of suitably enlarged superspaces to write new actions for extended objects, with kappa-symmetry, in such a way that the tension emerges from them as an integration constant. Our actions correspond to the…
We explore the possibility of constructing p-brane world-volume actions with the requirements of kappa-symmetry and gauge invariance as the only input. In the process, we develop a general framework which leads to actions interpolating…
The complete classification of the irreducible representations of the N-extended one-dimensional supersymmetry algebra linearly realized on a finite number of fields is presented. Off-shell invariant actions of one-dimensional…
Motivated by the isomorphism between osp(4|6) superalgebra and D=3 N=6 superconformal algebra we consider the superstring action on the AdS_4 x CP^3 background parametrized by D=3 N=6 super-Poincare and CP^3 coordinates supplemented by the…
Two-dimensional N=1,2 supersymmetric chiral models and their dual extensions are introduced and canonically quantized. Working within a superspace formalism, the non-manifest invariance under 2D-superPoincare' transformations is proven. The…
New extended superspaces associated with topological charge algebras of the D-brane are used to construct D-brane actions without worldvolume gauge fields. The actions are shown to be kappa-symmetric under an appropriately chosen right…
We construct an Anti-de Sitter(AdS) algebra in a nondegenerate superspace. Based on this algebra we construct a covariant kappa-symmetric superstring action, and we examine its dynamics: Although this action reduces to the usual…
A kappa-symmetric action for coincident D-branes is presented. It is valid in the approximation that the additional fermionic variables, used to incorporate the non-abelian degrees of freedom, are treated classically. The action is written…
