Description
I review recent advances in superconformal mechanics: the existence of critical scalings (constraining the admissible Lagrangians) for the finite superconformal algebras and the existence of a new type of duality (the target-target duality) of the 1D sigma models. In the light of these results the world-line superconformal theory is put into a new perspective.
