Tóm tắt

With the help of Penrose twistor approach by introducing the auxiliary “Stückelberg” degrees of freedom, the “extended” model of massless superparticle is constructed in 4-dimensional space-time, which is equivalent to the original Brink-Schwarz model. The covariant operator quantization of the obtained system is performed in the cases of N=1 and extended supersymmetries. It is shown that there are three independent schemes of quantization of the system at even N, one of which becomes anomalous at odd N.
