N=1 superfield description of vector-tensor couplings in six dimensions [PDF]
We express supersymmetric couplings among the vector and the tensor multiplets in six dimensions (6D) in terms of N=1 superfields. The superfield description is derived from the invariant action in the projective superspace.

Single-superfield helical-phase inflation
Large-field inflation in supergravity requires the approximate global symmetry needed to protect flatness of the scalar potential. In helical-phase inflation, the U(1) symmetry of the Kähler potential is assumed, the phase part of the complex scalar of a

On Modifications of the Sp(2) Covariant Superfield Quantization [PDF]
We propose a modification of the Sp(2) covariant superfield quantization to realize a superalgebra of generating operators isomorphic to the massless limit of the corresponding superalgebra of the osp(1,2) covariant formalism. The modified scheme ensures

Integer superspin supercurrents of matter supermultiplets
In recent papers [18, 21] we demonstrated that consistent and non-trivial linear transformations of matter supermultiplets generate half-integer superspin supercurrents and the cubic interactions between matter and half-integer superspin supermultiplets.

On Superfield Covariant Quantization in General Coordinates [PDF]
We propose a natural extension of the BRST-antiBRST superfield covariant scheme in general coordinates. Thus, the coordinate dependence of the basic scalar and tensor fields of the formalism is extended from the base supermanifold to the complete set of ...

We present a class of supergravity α-attractors with an approximate global U(1) symmetry corresponding to the axion direction. We also develop a multi-field generalization of these models and show that the α-attractor models with U(1) symmetries have a ...

Goldstino Superfields in Supergravity [PDF]
We review two off-shell models for spontaneously broken ${\cal N}=1$ and ${\cal N}=2$ supergravity proposed in arXiv:1702.02423 and arXiv:1707.07390. The ${\cal N}=1$ model makes use of a real scalar superfield subject to three nilpotency conditions.

A note on gravitational particle production in supergravity
It is pointed out that the gravitational particle production rate of a scalar component of a chiral superfield in supergravity with minimal Kähler potential can be significantly suppressed compared with a minimal scalar field in non-supersymmetric ...

Renormalization in General Gauge Mediation
We revisit General Gauge Mediation (GGM) in light of the supersymmetric (linear) sigma model by utilizing the current superfield. The current superfield in the GGM is identified with supersymmetric extension of the vector symmetry current of the sigma ...

Unidexterously constrained worldsheet superfields [PDF]
Super-constrained superfields have provided for most of the best-known and oft-used representations of supersymmetry. The abelian nature of the Lorentz symmetry on the worldsheet turns out to continue permitting the discovery of new representations, long after the discovery of twisted chiral superfields.
