AB - We review and elaborate on the issue of three-dimensional (3D) world-volume supersymmetry that appears as a residual part of global target space supersymmetry in the Bergshoeff–Sezgin–Townsend (BST) supermembrane action. While there is no direct ‘spinning membrane’ analogue of the world-volume supersymmetric spinning string action that could be obtained by coupling (Formula presented) copies of 3D scalar multiplet to 3D supergravity, we discuss how one may construct an (Formula presented) 3D supersymmetric analogue of the derivative expansion of the bosonic membrane action in static gauge. We compare the resulting (Formula presented) supersymmetric action for eight 3D scalar multiplets to the (Formula presented) 3D supersymmetric action describing the (Formula presented) supermembrane in the static gauge. The two actions are not equivalent which is related to the fact that the full (Formula presented) supersymmetry of the static-gauge (Formula presented) supermembrane action can be realized only if the fermions are described by an (Formula presented) spinor rather than vector. The two actions are still directly related in special dimensions (Formula presented) and 5. We also compute the one-loop world-volume scattering amplitudes for the two theories finding that they indeed agree for (Formula presented) but disagree for (Formula presented).

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
