Generators of Local Supersymmetry Transformation from First Class Constraints

Abstract

We show how the generator of local supersymmetry transformations can be found from Fermionic first class constraints. This is done by adapting the approaches of Henneaux, Teit- elboim and Zanelli and of Castellani that has been used to find the generator of gauge trans- formations from Bosonic first class constraints. We illustrate how a supersymmetric gauge generator can be found by considering the spinning particle. The invariances that we find are not those presented in the original discussion of the spinning particle.
