We clearly and consistently supersymmetrize the celebrated horizontality condition to derive the off-shell nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for the supersymmetric system of a free spinning relativistic particle within the framework of superfield approach to BRST formalism. For the precise determination of the proper (anti-) BRST symmetry transformations for all the bosonic and fermionic dynamical variables of our system, we consider the present theory on a (1, 2)-dimensional supermanifold parameterized by an even (bosonic) variable (tau) and a pair of odd (fermionic) variables theta and (theta) over bar (with theta(2) = (theta) over bar (2) = 0, theta(theta) over bar + (theta) over bar theta = 0) of the Grassmann algebra. One of the most important and novel features of our present investigation is the derivation of (anti-) BRST invariant CurciFerrari type restriction which turns out to be responsible for the absolute anticommutativity of the (anti-) BRST transformations and existence of the coupled (but equivalent) Lagrangians for the present theory of a supersymmetric system. These observations are completely new results for this model.

Kink-like solitons in quantum droplet

Summary: Solitonic excitations of one-dimensional quantum droplets are studied, which are found to be similar to compactons in classical liquids, with specific characteristics related to the uniform condensate amplitude. These excitations occur in pairs, phase-locked with the background, and can be obtained through a Mobius transform to connect with more general solutions.

Summary: The study investigates the broken and unbroken phases of PT and supersymmetry in optical systems, discovering the impact of two different forms of potential on the transition of PT-symmetry, as well as the spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry and the corresponding changes in energy spectra.
