Supersymmetric extensions of Schrödinger-invariance

The set of dynamic symmetries of the scalar free Schrödinger equation in d space dimensions gives a realization of the Schrödinger algebra that may be extended into a representation of the conformal algebra in $d+2$ dimensions, which yields the set of dynamic symmetries of the same equation where the mass is not viewed as a constant, but as an additional coordinate. An analogous construction also holds for the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Lévy-Leblond equation. An $N=2$ supersymmetric extension of these equations leads, respectively, to a ‘super-Schrödinger’ model and to the $(3|2)$-supersymmetric model. Their dynamic supersymmetries form the Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{osp}(2|2)⋉\mathfrak{sh}(2|2)$ and $\mathfrak{osp}(2|4)$, respectively. The Schrödinger algebra and its supersymmetric counterparts are found to be the largest finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras of a family of infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras that are systematically constructed in a Poisson algebra setting, including the Schrödinger–Neveu–Schwarz algebra ${\mathfrak{sns}}^{(N)}$ with N supercharges. Covariant two-point functions of quasiprimary superfields are calculated for several subalgebras of $\mathfrak{osp}(2|4)$. If one includes both $N=2$ supercharges and time-inversions, then the sum of the scaling dimensions is restricted to a finite set of possible values.
