### Potential structure of AdS spaces

• Mathematics
• 2000
The dynamics of anN=4 spinning particle in a curved background with the action invariant under the “small” superconformal group is described using theN=4 superfield formalism. It is shown that

We show that it is possible to construct a supersymmetric mechanics with four supercharges possessing not conformally flat target space. A general idea of constructing such models is presented. A

Journal of High Energy Physics
• 2020
The N $$\mathcal{N}$$ = 4 supersymmetric spinning particle admits several consistent quantizations, related to the gauging of different subgroups of the SO(4) R -symmetry on the worldline. We

### Higher spin fields from a worldline perspective

• Physics
• 2007
Higher spin fields in four dimensions, and more generally conformal fields in arbitrary dimensions, can be described by spinning particle models with a gauged SO(N) extended supergravity on the

We reproduce the N = 4 supersymmetric mechanics on curved spaces, constructed earlier within the Hamiltonian formalism, using the superfield methods. We show that for any such mechanics, given by the

We define N=4, d=1 harmonic superspace HR 1+2|4 with an SU(2)/U(1) harmonic part, SU(2) being one of two factors of the R-symmetry group SU(2)× SU(2) of N=4, d=1 Poincare supersymmetry. We

The superfield formulation of two-dimensional N = 4 extended supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SQM) is described. It is shown that the corresponding classical Lagrangian describes the motion in the
