Carrollian superconformal theories and super BMS (2202.01172v2)
Published 2 Feb 2022 in hep-th
Abstract: We investigate the supersymmetric versions of Bondi-Metzner-Sachs or, equivalently, conformal Carroll symmetry in boundary dimensions $d>3$, with applications of flat space holography in mind. We identify the contraction of the relativistic symmetry relevant for our purposes and construct a finite-dimensional Carrollian superconformal algebra (CSA) before proposing an infinite-dimensional lift. We provide the superspace formulation for $\mathcal{N}=1$ CSA and work towards an understanding of the representation theory of the algebra. We conclude with some aspects of $\mathcal{N}>1$ CSA.
