Description
Topics to be discussed:
1. Embedding of space-time groups in Supergroups
2. Superconformal or AdS algebras in any dimension and the D = 6(7)
barrier
3. Superpoincaré algebras with 'central' extension and the D = 11 barrier
4. R-symmetries in any dimensions
5. Dualities,moduli dependence of brane 'central'charges, attractors and Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula.
