Abstract

We extend the Galilei group of space-time transformations by gradation, construct interacting field-theoretic representations of this algebra, and show that nonrelativistic super-Chern-Simons theory is a special case. We also study the generalization to matrix valued fields, which are relevant to the formulation of superstring theory as a 1/Nc expansion of a field theory. We find that in the matrix case the field theory is much more restricted by the supersymmetry.
