Quaternionic (super) twistors extensions and general superspaces [PDF]
In a attempt to treat a supergravity as a tensor representation, the four-dimensional NN-extended quaternionic superspaces are constructed from the (diffeomorphyc) graded extension of the ordinary Penrose-twistor formulation, performed in a previous work

Navigating collinear superspace [PDF]
AbstractWe introduce a new set of effective field theory rules for constructing Lagrangians with$$ \mathcal{N} $$N= 1 supersymmetry in collinear superspace. In the standard superspace treatment, superfields are functions of the coordinates$$ \left({x}^{\mu },{\theta}^{\alpha },{\theta}^{\dagger \overset{\cdot }{\alpha }}\right) $$xμθαθ†α⋅, and ...

It is shown that the equations of motion of eleven-dimensional supergravity follow from setting the dimension zero components of the superspace torsion tensor equal to the Dirac matrices. The proof of this assertion is facilitated by the introduction of a connection taking its values in the Lie algebra of $Spin(1,10)\times R^+$.

Component decompositions and adynkra libraries for supermultiplets in lower dimensional superspaces
We present Adynkra Libraries that can be used to explore the embedding of multiplets of component field (whether on-shell or partial on-shell) within Salam-Strathdee superfields for theories in dimension nine through four.

A discussion of the AdS/CFT correspondence in IIB is given in a superspace context. The main emphasis is on the properties of SCFT correlators on the boundary which are studied using harmonic superspace techniques. These techniques provide the easiest way of implementing the superconformal Ward identities. The Ward identities, together with analyticity,

Abstract We consider, at the linearized level, the superspace formulation of lower-dimensional F-theory. In particular, we describe the embedding of 3D Type II super-gravity of the superstring, or 4D, N = 1 supergravity of M-theory, into the corresponding F-theory in full detail, giving the linearized action and gauge ...

Super-Laplacians and their symmetries
A super-Laplacian is a set of differential operators in superspace whose highestdimensional component is given by the spacetime Laplacian. Symmetries of super-Laplacians are given by linear differential operators of arbitrary finite degree and are ...

Supergravities and branes from Hilbert-Poincaré series
The Molien-Weyl integral formula and the Hilbert-Poincaré series have proven to be powerful mathematical tools in relation to gauge theories, allowing to count the number of gauge invariant operators.

We formulate the ten-dimensional super-Yang-Mills theory in a twisted superspace with 8+1 supercharges. Its constraints do not imply the equations of motion and we solve them. As a preliminary step for a complete formulation in a twisted superspace, we give a superspace path-integral formulation of the N=2, d=4 super-Yang-Mills theory without matter ...

Within the framework of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 anti-de Sitter (AdS) supersymmetry in four dimensions, we derive superspin projection operators (or superprojectors). For a tensor superfield V α m α ⋅ n ≔ V α 1 … αm α ⋅ 1 … α ⋅ n $$ {\mathfrak{V}}_{\alpha
