Super-Carrollian and Super-Galilean Field Theories

Konstantinos Koutrolikos, Mojtaba Najafizadeh

The exploration of scalar field theories that exhibit Carroll and Galilei symmetries has attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we generalize these studies to fermionic field…

-Like Flows and Nonlinear Supersymmetry

Christian Ferko, Yangrui Hu, Zejun Huang +2

We show that the Born-Infeld theory can be generated via an irrelevant deformation of the free Maxwell theory. The deforming operator is constructed from the energy-momentum t…

Nonlinear Supersymmetry and 3D Supersymmetric Born-Infeld Theory

Yangrui Hu, Konstantinos Koutrolikos

D-branes acquire effective nonlinear descriptions whose bosonic part is related to the Born-Infeld action. This nonlinearity has been proven to be a consequence of the partial $…
