Abstract: We extend existing results for the Nielsen complexity of scalar primaries and spinning primaries in four dimensions by including supersymmetry. Specifically, we study the Nielsen complexity of circuits that transform a superconformal primary with definite scaling dimension, spin and R-charge by means of continuous unitary gates from the $mathbfmathfraksu(2,2|mathcalN)$ group. Our analysis makes profitable use of Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formulas including a special class of BCH formulas we conjecture and motivate. With this approach we are able to determine the super-K"{a}hler potential characterizing the circuit complexity geometry and obtain explicit expressions in the case of $mathcalN=1$ and $mathcalN=2$ supersymmetry.
