THE MINIMAL N=2 SUPEREXTENSION OF THE NLS EQUATION

arXiv:hep-th/9504084 · doi:10.1016/0370-2693(95)00755-A

Abstract

We show that the well known NLS equation possesses supersymmetry and thus it is actually the NLS equation. This supersymmetry is hidden in terms of the commonly used superfields but it becomes manifest after passing to the ones. In terms of the new defined variables the second Hamiltonian structure of the supersymmetric NLS equation coincides with the superconformal algebra and the NLS equation belongs to the KdV hierarchy. We propose the KP-like Lax operator in terms of the superfields which reproduces all the conserved currents for the corresponding hierarchy.
