We propose a new version of the superfield action for a closed D=10, N=1 superstring where the Lorentz harmonics are used as auxiliary superfields. The incorporation of Lorentz harmonics into the superfield action makes possible to obtain…
We derive the low energy effective action of the heterotic superstring in superspace. This is achieved by coupling the covariantly quantized Green-Schwarz superstring of Berkovits to a curved background and requiring that the sigma model…
The vector-tensor multiplet is coupled off-shell to an N=2 vector multiplet such that its central charge transformations are realized locally. A gauged central charge is a necessary prerequisite for a coupling to supergravity and the…
In the mid 1990's Seiberg and Witten determined the exact low energy effective action of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $SU(2)$. Later, in the early 2000's Nekrasov calculated this action directly using…
