Description

Usually, in supersymmetric theories, it is assumed that the time evolution of states is determined by the Hamiltonian, through the Schroedinger equation. Here we explore the superevolution of states in superspace, in which the supercharges are the principal operators. The superevolution equation is consistent with the Schroedinger equation, but it avoids the usual degeneracy between bosonic and fermionic states. We discuss superevolution in supersymmetric quantum mechanics and in a simple supersymmetric field theory
