The Derived Pure Spinor Formalism as an Equivalence of Categories
We construct a derived generalization of the pure spinor superfield formalism and prove that it exhibits an equivalence of dg-categories between multiplets for a supertranslation algebra and equivariant modules over its Chevalley-Eilenberg cochains. This equivalence is closely linked to Koszul duali...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Zusammenfassung: | We construct a derived generalization of the pure spinor superfield formalism and prove that it exhibits an equivalence of dg-categories between multiplets for a supertranslation algebra and equivariant modules over its Chevalley-Eilenberg cochains. This equivalence is closely linked to Koszul duality for the supertranslation algebra. After introducing and describing the category of supermultiplets, we define the derived pure spinor construction explicitly as a dg-functor. We then show that the functor that takes the derived supertranslation invariants of any supermultiplet is a quasi-inverse to the pure spinor construction, using an explicit calculation. Finally, we illustrate our findings with examples and use insights from the derived formalism to answer some questions regarding the ordinary (underived) pure spinor superfield formalism.
