The role of Killing-Yano tensors in supersymmetric mechanics on a curved manifold Original Research Article

The supersymmetric extension of the motion of a charged point particle is applied to investigate symmetries of gravitational fields and electromagnetic fields. We mainly focus on the role of the Killing-Yano tensors of both usual and generalized types. Results obtained by systematic analysis strengthen the connection of the Killing-Yano tensor and superinvariants (functions commuting with the supercharge).
