Abstract: We start a systematic study of non-projected supermanifolds, concentrating on supermanifolds with fermionic dimension 2 and with the reduced manifold a complex projective space. We show that all the non-projected supermanifolds of dimension $2|2$ over $mathbb{P}^2$ are completely characterised by a non-zero 1-form $omega$ and by a locally free sheaf $mathcalF$ of rank $0|2$, satisfying $Sy{m}^{2}mathcalFcong{K}_{mathbb{P}^2}$. Denoting such supermanifolds with $mathbb{P}_o^{2}mega(mathcalF)$, we show that all of them are Calabi-Yau supermanifolds and, when $omegaeq0$, they are non-projective, that is they cannot be embedded into any projective superspace $mathbb{P}^{n|m}$. Instead, we show that every non-projected supermanifolds over $mathbb{P}^2$ admits an embedding into a super Grassmannian. By contrast, we give an example of a supermanifold $mathbb{P}_o^{2}mega(mathcalF)$ that cannot be embedded in any of the $Pi$-projective superspaces $mathbb{P}_{Pi}^n$ introduced by Manin and Deligne. However, we also show that when $mathcalF$ is the cotangent bundle over $mathbb{P}^2$, then the non-projected $mathbb{P}_o^{2}mega(mathcalF)$ and the $Pi$-projective plane $mathbb{P}_{Pi}^2$ do coincide.

Review text

This paper is concerned with the obstruction of supermanifolds to be projected, concentrating on supermanifolds of a complex projective space \(\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^{n}\) as the associated reduced manifold and seeking to find the most general conditions for such supermanifolds to be non-projected. It is shown that only varieties of bosonic dimension \(1\) and \(2\) admit non-projected structures. The authors succeed in classifying non-projected supermanifolds over \(\mathbb{P}^{1}\) of odd dimension \(2\). They provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the supermanifold over \(\mathbb{P}^{2}\) to be non-projected. What is indeed remarkable, these supermanifolds turn out to be nothing but Calabi-Yau supermanifolds [\textit{S. Noja} et al., J. High Energy Phys. 2017, No. 4, Paper No. 94, 43 p. (2017; Zbl 1378.83088)]. It is established that these supermanifolds are not embeddable into a split projective superspace. The authors hold that the role of embedding spaces in supergeometry has to be played by super Grassmannians, establishing that all of non-projected supermanifolds over \(\mathbb{P} ^{2}\) are embeddable into a certain super Grassmannian (Theorem 6.1). The authors then investigate the supermanifolds corresponding to two distinct choices of the fermionic sheaf \(\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{M}}\), namely, \begin{itemize} \item the case when \(\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{M}}\) is the decomposable sheaf \[ \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^{2}}\left( -1\right) \oplus\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^{2}}\left( -2\right) \] \item the non-decomposable case when is the cotangent bundle \(\Omega_{\mathbb{P}^{2}}^{1}\) of \(\mathbb{P}^{2}\). \end{itemize} In the decomposable case, it is shown that it is neither projective nor \(\Pi \)-projective. In the non-decomposable case, it is demonstrated that it coincides with the \(\Pi\)-projective plane \(\mathbb{P}_{\Pi}^{2}\) introduced by \textit{Yu. I. Manin} [Gauge fields and complex geometry. (Kalibrovochnye polya i kompleksnaya geometriya) (Russian). Moskva: Nauka (1984; Zbl 0576.53002); Prog. Phys. 5, 231--234 (1982; Zbl 0535.70018)] in a completely different way. It is established that this unexpected correspondence is only a particular case of a general fact [\textit{S. Noja}, J. Geom. Phys. 124, 286--299 (2018; Zbl 1388.58004)], meaning that \(\Pi\)-projective geometry arises naturally as one considers the cotangent bundle of projective spaces as the fermionic bundle over \(\mathbb{P}^{n}\).
