Abstract

The D = 11 pure spinor formulation of the superparticle allows a simple realization of covariant quantization, unlike the D = 11 Brink-Schwarz-like superparticle. We explicitly show the equivalence between the cohomologies of these two models in the context of two different group decompositions: SO(10, 1) -> SO(1, 1) x SO(9) and SO(10,1) -> SO(3,1) x SO(7). We also carry out a light-cone analysis of the pure spinor cohomology and show that it correctly reproduces the SO(9) equations of motion for D = 11 linearized supergravity. (AU)
