Superstar in noncommutative superspace via covariant quantization of the superparticle
A covariant quantization method is developed for the off-shell superparticle in 10 dimensions. On shell it is consistent with light cone quantization, while off shell it gives a noncommutative superspace that realizes nonlinearly a hidden 11-dimensional super Poincar\'e symmetry. The nonlinear commutation rules are then used to construct the supersymmetric …
