Supersymmetric Wilson loops via integral forms

Blog Article

Abstract We study supersymmetric Wilson loops from a geometrical perspective.To this end, we tourettebrewing.com propose a new formulation of these operators in terms of an integral form associated to the immersion of the loop into a supermanifold.This approach provides a unifying description of Wilson loops preserving southwestern aztec rug different sets of supercharges, and clarifies the flow between them.Moreover, it allows to exploit the powerful techniques of super- differential calculus for investigating their symmetries.

As remarkable examples, we discuss supersymmetry and kappa-symmetry invariance.
