The boundary value problem for the super-Liouville equation
Annales de l'I.H.P. Analyse non linéaire, Volume 31 (2014) no. 4, pp. 685-706.

We study the boundary value problem for the — conformally invariant — super-Liouville functional

E(u,ψ)= M{1 2|u| 2 +K g u+(D̸+e u )ψ,ψ-e 2u }dz
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.
