Hamiltonian superfield formalism with N supercharges

An action principle that applies uniformly to any number N of supercharges is proposed. We perform the reduction to the N=0 partition function by integrating out superpartner fields. As a new feature for theories of extended supersymmetry, the canonical Pfaffian measure factor is a result of a Gaussian integration over a superpartner. This is mediated through an explicit choice of direction n^a in the θ-space, which the physical sector does not depend on. Also, we re-interpret the metric g^ab in the Susy algebra [D^a,D^b]g^ab∂_t as a symplectic structure on the fermionic θ-space. This leads to a superfield formulation with a general covariant θ-space sector.
