We construct a novel topologically massive abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory with 32 global supersymmetries in three spacetime dimensions. In spite of the 32 supercharges, the theory exhibits massive excitations only up to spin 1. The possibility of such a multiplet shortening is due to the presence of non-central R-symmetry generators in the Poincare superalgebra, whose supermultiplets are determined.

  1. On three-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetry: maximally supersymmetric backgrounds and massive deformations

    hep-th 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper classifies maximally supersymmetric 3D N=4 backgrounds and constructs massive deformations of N=4 theories on deformed Minkowski superspace, including a one-loop derivation of Chern-Simons terms.
