Abstract: A new systematic method is developed to study to what extent the symmetry requirements alone, above all the invariance under 16 supersymmetries (SUSY), determine the completely off-shell effective action $Gamma$ of a D-particle, i.e. without imposing any restrictions on its position $r^m(au)$ and spin $het{a}_{a}lpha(au)$. Our method consists of (i) writing down the proper closure relations for general SUSY transformations $delt{a}_{e}psilon$ (which necessarily involves $Gamma$ itself) together with the invariance condition $delt{a}_{e}psilonGamma=0$ (ii) and solving this coupled system of functional differential equations for $delt{a}_{e}psilon$ and $Gamma$ simultaneously, modulo field redefinitions, in a consistent derivative expansion scheme. Our analysis is facilitated by a novel classification scheme introduced for the terms in $Gamma$. At order 2 and 4, although no assumption is made on the underlying theory, we reproduce the effective action previously obtained at the tree and the 1-loop level in Matrix theory respectively (modulo two constants), together with the quantum-corrected SUSY transformations which close properly. This constitutes a complete unambiguous proof of off-shell non-renormalization theorems.
