Supersymmetry and the Geometry of Taub-NUT
J.W. van Holten (NIKHEF-H)
TL;DR
This paper explores the supersymmetric extension of Taub-NUT space, revealing additional symmetries and their geometric origins, with implications for fermion modes and monopole dynamics in gravitational instantons.
Contribution
It identifies the geometric origin of extra supersymmetries in the Taub-NUT space extension, advancing understanding of supersymmetric geometries.
Findings
Supersymmetric Taub-NUT space admits 4 standard and additional non-standard supersymmetries.
The geometric origin of these symmetries is elucidated.
Applications to fermion modes and monopole dynamics are demonstrated.
Abstract
The supersymmetric extension of Taub-NUT space admits 4 standard supersymmetries plus several additional non-standard ones. The geometrical origin of these symmetries is traced. The result has applications to fermion modes in gravitational instantons as well as in long-range monopole dynamics.
