Description

We formulate a theory for an N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills multiplet in a nonadjoint representation R of SO(N), as an important application of our recently proposed model for N=1 supersymmetry. This system is obtained by dimensional reduction from an N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills multiplet in a nonadjoint representation in ten dimensions. The consistency with supersymmetry requires that a nonadjoint representation R with the indices i,j,... satisfy the three conditions ηij=δij, (TI)ij=-(TI)ji, and (TI)[ij|(TI)|k]l=0 for the metric ηij and the generators TI, which are the same as the N=1 case
