1203.4189 (Tristan Hubsch)

On Supermultiplet Twisting and Spin-Statistics    [PDF]

Tristan Hubsch
Twisting of off-shell supermultiplets in models with 1+1-dimensional spacetime has been discovered in 1984, and was shown to be a generic feature of off-shell representations in worldline supersymmetry two decades later. It is shown herein that in all supersymmetric models with spacetime of four or more dimensions, this type of twisting, if nontrivial, necessarily maps regular (non-ghost) supermultiplets to ghost supermultiplets.
