We study some algebraic properties of the vector supersymmetry (VSUSY) algebra, a graded extension of the four-dimensional Poincare algebra with two odd generators, a vector and a scalar, and two central charges. The anticommutator between the two odd generators gives the four-momentum operator, from which the name vector supersymmetry. We construct the Casimir operators for this algebra and we show how both algebra and Casimirs can be derived by contraction from the simple orthosymplectic algebra OSp(3,2|2). In particular, we construct the analogue of superspin for vector supersymmetry and we show that, due to the algebraic structure of the Casimirs, the multiplets are either doublets of spin (s,s+1) or two spin 1/2 states. Finally, we identify an odd operator, which is an invariant in a subclass of representations where a BPS-like algebraic relation between the mass and the values of the central charges is satisfied.

We construct the action of a relativistic spinning particle from a non-linear realization of a space-time odd vector extension of the Poincare group. For particular values of the parameters appearing in the lagrangian the model has a gauge world-line supersymmetry.{As a consequence of this local symmetry there are BPS solutions in the model preserving 1/5 of the supersymmetries.} A supersymmetric invariant quantization produces two decoupled 4d Dirac equations.
We present a simple derivation of vector supersymmetry transformations for topological field theories of Schwarz- and Witten-type. Our method is similar to the derivation of BRST-transformations from the so-called horizontality conditions or Russian formulae. We show that this procedure reproduces in a concise way the known vector supersymmetry transformations of various topological models and we use it to obtain some new transformations of this type for 4d topological YM-theories in different gauges.
We determine the Clebsch-Gordan and Racah-Wigner coefficients for continuous series of representations of the quantum deformed algebras U_q(sl(2)) and U_q(osp(1|2)). While our results for the former algebra reproduce formulas by Ponsot and Teschner, the expressions for the orthosymplectic algebra are new. Up to some normalization factors, the associated Racah-Wigner coefficients are shown to agree with the fusing matrix in the Neveu-Schwarz sector of N=1 supersymmetric Liouville field theory.
We describe Jordanian ``nonstandard deformation of U(osp(1|2)) by employing the twist quantization technique. An extension of these results to U(osp(1|4))describing deformed graded D=4 $AdS$ symmetries and to their super-Poincar{e} limit is outlined.
We clarify certain aspects of instanton operators in five-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories. In particular, we show how, in the pointlike limit, they become supersymmetric and provide the natural bridge with the instantonic states contributin g to the index as well as with the zero mode counting leading to broken current multiplets.
