An irreducible massive superspin one half action built from the chiral dotted spinor superfield [PDF]
Although the chiral dotted spinor superfield should describe a Massive Superspin One Half multiplet, it has not been obvious how to derive this from an action.

A note on N=(2,2) superfields in two dimensions [PDF]
Motivated by the results in {\tt hep-th/0508228}, we perform a careful analysis of the allowed linear constraints on $N=(2,2)$ scalar superfields. We show that only chiral, twisted-chiral and semi-chiral superfields are possible. Various subtleties are discussed.

On pure spinor superfield formalism [PDF]
We show that a certain superfield formalism can be used to find an off-shell supersymmetric description for some supersymmetric field theories where conventional superfield formalism does not work. This "new" formalism contains even auxiliary variables in addition to conventional odd super-coordinates.

Five-dimensional superfield supergravity
We present a projective superspace formulation for matter-coupled simple supergravity in five dimensions. Our starting point is the superspace realization for the minimal supergravity multiplet proposed by Howe in 1981. We introduce various off-shell supermultiplets (i.e.

On a structure of the one-loop divergences in 4D harmonic superspace sigma-model
We study the quantum structure of four-dimensional $${{\mathcal {N}}}=2$$ N = 2 superfield sigma-model formulated in harmonic superspace in terms of the omega-hypermultiplet superfield $$\omega $$ ω .

We present a superfield formulation of the quantization program for theories with first class constraints. An exact operator formulation is given, and we show how to set up a phase-space path integral entirely in terms of superfields. BRST transformations and canonical transformations enter on equal footing, and they allow us to establish a superspace ...

Superfields, Nilpotent Superfields and Superschemes [PDF]
We interpret superfields in a functorial formalism that explains the properties that are assumed for them in the physical applications. We study the non-trivial relation of scalar superfields with the defining sheaf of the supermanifold of super spacetime.

For the first time in the physics literature, the Lorentz representations of all 2,147,483,648 bosonic degrees of freedom and 2,147,483,648 fermionic degrees of freedom in an unconstrained eleven dimensional scalar superfield are presented.

We introduce a first order description of linearized non-minimal (n = −1) supergravity in superspace, using the unconstrained prepotential superfield instead of the conventionally constrained super one forms.

Abstract We define the ordinary Minkowski space inside the conformal space according to Penrose and Manin as homogeneous spaces for the Poincaré and conformal group respectively. We realize the supersymmetric (SUSY) generalizations of such homogeneous spaces over the complex and the real fields. We finally investigate chiral (antichiral)
