N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and the superparticle: twistor transform and kappa-symmetry

Lagrangian and Hamiltonian dynamics of de Azcarraga-Lukierski N=2 massive superparticle is considered in the framework of twistor-like Lorentz-harmonic approach. The emphasis is on the study of the interaction with external Abelian gauge superfield. The requirement of preservation of all gauge symmetries of the free model including kappa-symmetry yields correct expressions for the superfield strength constraints and determines the form of nonminimal interaction. We also show that for de Azcarraga-Lukierski N=2 massive superparticle the pullback of field strength 2-superform to the superworld line is not integrable in contrast to the massless superparticle.

New Superembeddings for Type II Superstrings

Possible ways of generalization of the superembedding approach for the supersurfaces with the number of Grassmann directions being less than the half of that for the target superspace are considered on example of Type II superstrings. Focus is on n=(1,1) superworldsheet embedded into D=10 Type II superspace that is of the interest for establishing a relation with the NSR string.

Covariant $κ-$Symmetry Gauge Fixing and the Classical Relation Between Physical Variables of the NSR String and the Type II GS Superstring

The main goal of this paper is the manifestly covariant derivation of the classical relation between the gauge-fixed Grassmann variables of the NSR string and the Type II GS superstring. To this end we analyze the superembedding equation for the Type II superstring to derive the relation between the original variables of the NSR string and the Type II GS superstring and, further, by means of Lorentz harmonic variables we fix $κ-$symmetry of the GS superstring in the manifestly Lorentz covariant way.
