Abstract

In this paper, we show how to obtain from a scalar superfield its first component via a similarity transformation. We prove that in $D = 4$ $D = 4$ the generators of this similarity transformation live in the enveloping algebra of supersymmetry while for $D = 1$ they belong to the basic algebra.
