Maximally supersymmetric theories do not allow off-shell superspace formulations with traditional superfields containing a finite set of auxiliary fields. It has become clear that off-shell supersymmetric action formulations of such models can be achieved by the introduction of pure spinors. In this talk, an overview of this formalism is given, with emphasis on D=10 super-Yang-Mills theory and D=11 supergravity. This a somewhat expanded version of a talk presented at the workshop "Breaking of supersymmetry and ultraviolet divergences in extended supergravity" (BUDS), Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, March 25-28, 2013.

  1. Adjusting Higher Chern-Simons Theory

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors introduce half-adjusted higher Chern-Simons theories, obtained by a cotangent completion of adjusted L8-algebras, which admit consistent gauge transformations and equations of motion implying full flatness.
