Abstract:

We give the formulation in extended superspace of an N = 2 supersymmetric KP hierarchy using chirality preserving pseudo-differential operators. We obtain two quadratic hamiltonian structures, which lead to different reductions of the KP hierarchy. In particular we find two different hierarchies with the N = 2 classical super- algebra as a hamiltonian structure. The relation with the formulation in N=1 superspace and the bosonic limit are carried out.
