Abstract

We construct new superfields and σ-models with (4,4) and (2,2) supersymmetry. These lead to new metrics that include examples of manifolds with two complex structures that neither commute nor anticommute. We also consider the analogous issues in euclidean supersymmetry, and find the curious result that we are naturally led to indefinite signature σ-model metrics.
