Résumé

We study the boundary value problem for the — conformally invariant — super-Liouville functional $E (u, ψ) = \int_{M} {\frac{1}{2} {| \nabla u |}^{2} + K_{g} u + 〈 (D ̸ + e^{u}) ψ, ψ 〉 - e^{2 u}} d z$ that couples a function u and a spinor ψ on a Riemann surface. The boundary condition that we identify (motivated by quantum field theory) couples a Neumann condition for u with a chirality condition for ψ. Associated to any solution of the super-Liouville system is a holomorphic quadratic differential $T (z)$ , and when our boundary condition is satisfied, T becomes real on the boundary. We provide a complete regularity and blow-up analysis for solutions of this boundary value problem.
