Nonlinear supersymmetry on the plane in magnetic field and quasi-exactly solvable systems

Abstract

The nonlinear n-supersymmetry with holomorphic supercharges is investigated for the 2D system describing the motion of a charged spin-1/2 particle in an external magnetic field. The universal algebraic structure underlying the holomorphic n-supersymmetry is found. It is shown that the essential difference of the 2D realization of the holomorphic n-supersymmetry from the 1D case recently analysed by us consists in appearance of the central charge entering non-trivially into the superalgebra. The relation of the 2D holomorphic n-supersymmetry to the 1D quasi-exactly solvable (QES) problems is demonstrated by means of the reduction of the systems with hyperbolic or trigonometric form of the magnetic field. The reduction of the n-supersymmetric system with the polynomial magnetic field results in the family of the one-dimensional QES systems with the sextic potential. Unlike the original 2D holomorphic supersymmetry, the reduced 1D supersymmetry associated with x 6+⋯ family is characterized by the non-holomorphic supercharges of the special form found by Aoyama et al.
