From N=1 to N=2 supersymmetries in 2+1 dimensions

Description

Starting from N=1 scalar and vector supermultiplets in 2+1 dimensions, we construct superfields which constitute Lagrangians invariant under N=2 supersymmetries. We first recover the N=2 supersymmetric Abelian-Higgs model and then the N=2 pure super Yang-Mills model. The conditions for this elevation are consistent with previous results found by other authors
