Avoiding the theorem of Lerche and Shore

Abstract

Supersymmetric $\sigma$-models obtained by constraining linear supersymmetric field theories are ill defined. Well defined subsectors parametrising Kahler manifolds exist but are not believed to arise directly from constrained linear ones. A counterexample is offered using improved understanding of membranes in superstring theories leading to crucial central terms modifying the algebra of supercharge densities
