Non-split superstrings of dimension $(1|2)$

Any supermanifold diffeomorphic to one whose structure sheaf is the sheaf of sections of a~vector bundle over the underlying manifold is called split. Gaw\c{e}dzki (1977) and Batchelor (1979) were the first to prove that any smooth supermanifold is split. In 1981, P.~Green, and Palamodov, found examples of non-split analytic supermanifolds and described obstructions to splitness that were further studied by Manin (resp. Onishchik with his students) following Palamodov's (resp. Green's) approach. Following Palamodov, Donagi and Witten demonstrated that some of the moduli supervarieties of superstring theories are non-split. None of the above-mentioned authors considered odd parameters of supervarieties of obstructions to non-splitness. Here, using Palamodov's approach, we classify and describe the even (degree-2) and the odd (degree-1) obstructions to splitness of $(1|2)$-dimensional superstrings. In particular, we correct calculations of degree-2 obstructions due to Bunegina and Onishchik and confirm Manin's answer.

Abstract

Any supermanifold diffeomorphic to one whose structure sheaf is the sheaf of sections of a~vector bundle over the underlying manifold is called split. Gaw\c{e}dzki (1977) and Batchelor (1979) were the first to prove that any smooth supermanifold is split. In 1981, P.~Green, and Palamodov, found examples of non-split analytic supermanifolds and described obstructions to splitness that were further studied by Manin (resp. Onishchik with his students) following Palamodov's (resp. Green's) approach. Following Palamodov, Donagi and Witten demonstrated that some of the moduli supervarieties of superstring theories are non-split. None of the above-mentioned authors considered odd parameters of supervarieties of obstructions to non-splitness. Here, using Palamodov's approach, we classify and describe the even (degree-2) and the odd (degree-1) obstructions to splitness of $(1|2)$-dimensional superstrings. In particular, we correct calculations of degree-2 obstructions due to Bunegina and Onishchik and confirm Manin's answer.
