Abstract

We present a symbolic method for organizing the representation theory of one-dimensional superalgebras. This relies on special objects, which we have called adinkra symbols, which supply tangible geometric forms to the still-emerging mathematical basis underlying supersymmetry.

    • Adinkras are not Category Diagrams (among other things, if you have A->B and B->C you don't necessarily have A->C). Here's the original paper: http://arxiv.org/pdf/hep-th/0408004v1.pdf Urs Schreiber speculated a while ago that there may be a connection between adinkra diagrams…
