We review a geometrical, so called superembedding, approach to the description of the dynamics of point-like and extended supersymmetric objects (superbranes) in String Theory. The approach is based on a supersymmetric extension of the…

We review the geometrical approach to the description of the dynamics of super-p-branes, Dirichlet branes and the M5-brane, which is based on a generalization of the elements of surface theory to the description of the embedding of…

We examine general properties of superembeddings, i.e., embeddings of supermanifolds into supermanifolds. The connection between an embedding procedure and the method of non-linearly realised supersymmetry is clarified, and we demonstrate…

A large class of supersymmetric extended objects is considered from the viewpoint of embeddings of super worldsurfaces into target superspaces. It is shown that a simple geometrical condition leads to the equations of motion for the brane…

Possible ways of generalization of the superembedding approach for the supersurfaces with the number of Grassmann directions being less than the half of that for the target superspace are considered on example of Type II superstrings. Focus…

We systematically analyse the necessary and sufficient conditions for the preservation of supersymmetry for bosonic geometries of the form R^{1,9-d} \times M_d, in the common NS-NS sector of type II string theory and also type I/heterotic…

It is proved that a basic superembedding equation for the 2-dimensional worldsheet superspace $\S^{(2|8+8)}$ embedded into D=10 type IIB superspace $M^{(10|16+16)}$ provides a universal, S-duality invariant description of a fundamental…

The M2-brane is studied from the perspective of superembeddings. We review the derivation of the M2-brane dynamics and the supergravity constraints from the standard superembedding constraint and we discuss explicitly the induced d=3, N=8…

We review a generic structure of conventional (Nambu-Goto and Dirac-Born-Infeld-like) worldvolume actions for the superbranes and show how it is connected through a generalized action construction with a doubly supersymmetric geometrical…

Some aspects of the geometry of superembeddings and its application to supersymmetric extended objects are discussed. In particular, the embeddings of (3|16) and (6|16) dimensional superspaces into (11|32) dimensional superspace,…

It is advocated that the superembedding approach is a generic covariant method for the description of superbranes as models of (partial) spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. As an illustration we construct (in the framework of…

We revise the twistor--like superfield approach to describing super--p--branes by use of the basic principles of the group--manifold approach \cite{rheo}. A super--p--brane action is constructed solely of geometrical objects as the integral…

The geometrical (superembedding) approach is used as a tool for deriving from the worldvolume dynamics of superbranes field theoretical models exhibiting partial supersymmetry breaking. In this way we obtain nonlinear actions for Goldstone…

The equations of motion of the super five-brane in D=11 dimensions are derived using the formalism of superembeddings. The equations describe highly nonlinear self-interactions of a tensor multiplet in the six dimensional worlsurface, and…

We complete the investigation of N=(2,2) supersymmetric nonlinear sigma-models in the presence of a boundary. We study the full bihermitian geometry parameterized by chiral, twisted chiral and semi-chiral superfields and identify the…

We review the salient features of spacetime and worldvolume supersymmetric super p-brane actions. These are sigma models for maps from a worldvolume superspace to the target superspace. For p-branes, the symmetries of the model depend…

Basics of the geometrical formulation of the dynamics of supersymmetric objects are considered and its relation to conventional formulations of superbranes is discussed. In particular, we demonstrate how the kappa-symmetry of the…

We employ generalized complex geometry to investigate supersymmetric embeddings of D-brane probes in a large class of SU(2) structure manifolds. This class includes the gravity dual of mass deformation and marginal beta deformation of N=4…

A generalization of the embedding approach for d-dimensional gravity based upon p-brane theories is considered. We show that the D-dimensional p-brane coupled to an antisymmetric tensor field of rank (p+1) provides the dynamical basis for…

We review the spinor moving frame formulations and generalized action principle for super-p-branes, describe in detail the superembedding approach to superstring in general type IIB supergravity background and present the complete…
