Goldstone multiplet for partially broken superconformal symmetry

The bosonic parts of D3-brane actions in AdS(5) backgrounds are known to ha ve symmetries which are field-dependent extensions of conformal transformat ions of the worldvolume coordinates. Using the coset space SU(2, 2/1)ISO(4, 1), we apply the method of nonlinear realizations to construct a four-dime nsional N = 1 off-shell supersymmetric action which has a generalized field -dependent superconformal invariance. The Goldstone fields for broken scale , chiral and S-supersymmetry transformations form a chiral supermultiplet. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
