On the equivalence between real and superfield 5D formalisms

David Diego Castro

Abstract: We explicitly construct a dictionary between two different supersymmetric formalisms for five-dimensional theories commonly used in the literature within a particular model where the bulk piece is off-shell while the brane action is on-shell. One of these models is the real formalism, which consists in doubling the number of degrees of freedom and then imposing reality constraints and the other is the usual superfield formalism.
