An action principle that applies uniformly to any number N of supercharges is proposed. We perform the reduction to the N=0 partition function by integrating out superpartner fields. As a new feature for theories of extended supersymmetry, the canonical Pfaffian measure factor is a result of a Gaussian integration over a superpartner. This is mediated through an explicit choice of direction n^a in the theta-space, which the physical sector does not depend on. Also, we re-interpret the metric g^{ab} in the Susy algebra [D^a,D^b] = g^{ab}partial_t as a symplectic structure on the fermionic theta-space. This leads to a superfield formulation with a general covariant theta-space sector.

We present a superfield construction of Hamiltonian quantization with N=2 supersymmetry generated by two fermionic charges Q^a. As a byproduct of the analysis we also derive a classically localized path integral from two fermionic objects Sigma^a that can be viewed as ``square roots of the classical bosonic action under the product of a functional Poisson bracket.
We study a supersymmetric tensor model with four supercharges and $O(N)^3$ global symmetry. The model is based on a chiral scalar superfield with three indices and quartic tetrahedral interaction in the superpotential, which is relevant below three dimensions. In the large-$N$ limit the model is dominated by melonic diagrams. We solve the Dyson-Schwinger equations in superspace for generic $d$ and extract the dimension of the chiral field and the dimensions of bilinear operators transforming in various representations of $O(N)^3$. We find that all operator dimensions are real and above the unitarity bound for $1<d<3$. Our results also agree with perturbative results in $3-varepsilon$ expansion. Finally, we extract the large spin behaviour of bilinear operators and discuss the connection with lightcone bootstrap.
These lectures give an introduction to the interrelated topics of Calabi-Yau compactification of the type II string, black hole attractors, the all-orders entropy formula, the dual (0,4) CFT, topological strings and the OSV conjecture. Based on notes by MG of lectures by AS at the 2006 Cargese summer school.
We propose a Hamiltonian formalism for a generalized Friedmann-Roberson-Walker cosmology model in the presence of both a variable equation of state (EOS) parameter $w(a)$ and a variable cosmological constant $Lambda(a)$, where $a$ is the scale factor. This Hamiltonian system containing 1 degree of freedom and without constraint, gives Friedmann equations as the equation of motion, which describes a mechanical system with a variable mass object moving in a potential field. After an appropriate transformation of the scale factor, this system can be further simplified to an object with constant mass moving in an effective potential field. In this framework, the $Lambda$ cold dark matter model as the current standard model of cosmology corresponds to a harmonic oscillator. We further generalize this formalism to take into account the bulk viscosity and other cases. The Hamiltonian can be quantized straightforwardly, but this is different from the approach of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in quantum cosmology.
We provide ${cal N}=1$ superfield description of BPS backgrounds in six-dimensional supergravity (6D SUGRA) with 3-branes, which is compactified on a two-dimensional space. The brane terms induce the localized fluxes. We find a useful gauge in which the background equations become significantly simple. This is not the Wess-Zumino gauge, and the relation to the usual component-field expression of 6D SUGRA is not straightforward. One of the equations reduces to the Liouville equation. By moving to the Wess-Zumino gauge, we check that our expressions reproduce the known results of the previous works, which are expressed in the component fields. Our results help us develop the systematic derivation of four-dimensional effective theories that keeps the ${cal N}=1$ SUSY structure.
