Supersymmetric Gauged $O(3)$ Sigma Model and Self-dual Born-Infeld Theory

Abstract

We study the supersymmetric extension of the gauged $O(3)$ sigma model in $2+1$ dimensions and find the supersymmetry algebra. We also discuss soliton solutions in case the Maxwell term is replaced by the Born-Infeld term. We show that by appropriate choice of the potential, the self-dual equations in the Born-Infeld case coincide with those of the Maxwell's case.
