Abstract

We study the properties of interacting line defects in the four-dimensional Chern Simons (CS) gauge theory with invariance given by the SL(mn)SL\left( m|n\right) super-group family. From this theory, we derive the oscillator realisation of the Lax operator for superspin chains with SL(mn)SL(m|n) symmetry. To this end, we investigate the holomorphic property of the bosonic Lax operator L\mathcal{L} and build a differential equation % \mathfrak{D}\mathcal{L}=0 solved by the Costello-Gaioto-Yagi realisation of L\mathcal{L} in the framework of\ the CS theory. We generalize this construction to the case of gauge super-groups, and develop a Dynkin super-diagram algorithm to\ deal with the decomposition of the Lie superalgebras. We obtain the generalisation of the Lax operator describing the interaction between the electric Wilson super-lines and the magnetic 't Hooft super-defects. This coupling is given in terms of a mixture of bosonic and fermionic oscillator degrees of freedom in the phase space of magnetically charged 't Hooft super-lines. The purely fermionic realisation of the superspin chain Lax operator is also investigated and it is found to coincide exactly with the Z2\mathbb{Z}_{2}- gradation of Lie superalgebras.\ \newline Keywords: 4D Chern-Simons theory, Super-gauge symmetry, Lie superalgebras and Dynkin super-diagrams, Superspin chains and integrability, Super- Lax operator.
