Alephnull-Extended Supersymmetric Chern-Simons Theory for Arbitrary Gauge Groups

Abstract

We present a model of supersymmetric non-Abelian Chern-Simons theories in three-dimensions with arbitrarily many supersymmetries, called alephnull-extended supersymmetry. The number of supersymmetry N equals the dimensionality of any non-Abelian gauge group G as N = dim G. Due to the supersymmetry parameter in the adjoint representation of a local gauge group G, supersymmetry has to be local. The minimal coupling constant is to be quantized, when the homotopy mapping is nontrivial: \pi_3(G) = Z. Our results indicate that there is still a lot of freedom to be explored for Chern-Simons type theories in three dimensions, possibly related to M-theory.
