Can string bits be supersymmetric?

Abstract

We search for the possibility to have supersymmetric string bits at finite discretization $J$. From a general setup we find that the string bits can be made supersymmetric modulo a single defect mode which is not expected to have any sensible effect in the continuum limit.

WARNING: we replaced the incorrect previous abstract. We thank E. Kiritsis for calling this to our attention
