Einstein gravity from the N = 4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ spinning particle

Abstract We obtain a manifestly background independent BRST quantization of the N = 4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ supersymmetric spinning particle. We show that nilpotency of the BRST charge Q implies the Einstein equations admitting a cosmological constant of indefinite sign. The physical graviton states a...
