Explaining Pure Spinor Superspace
read the original abstract
In the pure spinor formalism for the superstring and supermembrane, supersymmetric invariants are constructed by integrating over five $\theta$'s in d=10 and over nine $\theta$'s in d=11. This pure spinor superspace is easily explained using the superform (or ''ectoplasm'') method developed by Gates and collaborators, and generalizes the standard chiral superspace in d=4. The ectoplasm method is also useful for constructing d=10 and d=11 supersymmetric invariants in curved supergravity backgrounds.

Superform Approach to Equivariant Localization in Supergravity
Closed superforms, contracted with commuting Killing spinors on supersymmetric backgrounds, produce equivariantly closed polyforms; demonstrated in 4d N=2 conformal supergravity.

Superform Approach to Equivariant Localization in Supergravity
Closed superforms in superspace generate equivariantly closed polyforms for localization in off-shell 4d N=2 conformal supergravity, applied to vector, linear, chiral, and BF multiplets.
