Superspace BRST/BV operators of superfield gauge theories

I. L. Buchbinder, S. James Gates, K. Koutrolikos

We consider the superspace BRST and BV description of Super Maxwell theory and its non-abelian generalization Super Yang-Mills. By fermionizing the superspace g…

Supersymmetry and Representation Theory in Low Dimensions

Mathew Calkins, S. James Gates, Caroline Klivans

Beginning from a discussion of the known most fundamental dynamical structures of the Standard Model of physics, extended into the realms of mathematics and theory by the concept o…

4D, N = 1 Supersymmetry Genomics (II)

S. James Gates, Jared Hallett, James Parker +2

We continue the development of a theory of off-shell supersymmetric representations analogous to that of compact Lie algebras such as SU(3). For off-shell 4D, N = 1 systems, quark-…

Ectoplasm & Superspace Integration Measure for 2D Supergravity with Four Spinorial Supercurrents

S. James Gates, Gabriele Tartaglino-Mazzucchelli

Building on a previous derivation of the local chiral projector for a two dimensional superspace with eight real supercharges, we provide the complete density projection formula re…

Teleparallel Superspace in Eleven Dimensions Coupled to Supermembranes

Hitoshi Nishino, Subhash Rajpoot

We present a superspace formulation of N=1 eleven-dimensional supergravity with no manifest local Lorentz covariance, which we call teleparallel superspace. This formulation will b…

Superconformal Symmetry in 11D Superspace and the M-Theory Effective Action

S. James Gates

We establish a theorem about non-trivial 11D supergravity fluctuations that are conformally related to flat superspace geometry. Under the assumption that a theory of conformal 11D…

Deliberations on 11D Superspace for the M-Theory Effective Action

S. James Gates, Hitoshi Nishino

In relation to the superspace modifications of 11D supergeometry required to describe the M-theory low-energy effective action, we present an analysis of infinitesimal supergravity…

The Superspace WZNW Action for 4D, N=1 Supersymmetric QCD

S. James Gates, Marcus T. Grisaru, Marcia E. Knutt +1

We discuss features of the 4D, N = 1 WZNW term expressed as a function of chiral superfields and defined in a manner appropriate to calculate phenomenological matrix elements.

Component Actions from Curved Superspace: Normal Coordinates and Ectoplasm

S. James Gates, Marcus T. Grisaru, Marcia E. Knutt-Wehlau +1

We give efficient superspace methods for deriving component actions for supergravity coupled to matter. One method uses normal coordinates to covariantly expand the superfield acti…

On Aspects and Implications of the New Covariant 4D, N = 1 Green-Schwarz Sigma-model Action

S. J. Gates

Utilizing (2,0) superfields, we write a supersymmetry-squared action and partially relate it to the new formulation of the Green-Schwarz action given by Berkovits and Siegel. Recen…

Aleph-Null Extended Supergravity and Chern-Simons Theories

Hitoshi Nishino, S. J. Gates

We give generalizations of extended Poincaré supergravity with {\it arbitrarily many} supersymmetries in the absence of central charges in three-dimensions by gauging its intrinsic…

No N=4 Strings on Wolf Spaces

S. James Gates, Sergei V. Ketov

We generalize the standard supersymmetric Kazama-Suzuki coset construction to the case by requiring the {\it non-linear} (Goddard-Schwimmer) quasi-superconformal…
