First, starting from the Chern-Simons formulation, we show explicitly that the (super)anti-de Sitter boundary conditions imply that the asymptotic symmetry algebra is the extended superconformal algebra with quadratic nonlinearies in the currents. We then derive the super-Liouville action by solving the Chern-Simons theory and obtain a realization of the superconformal algebras in terms of super-Liouville fields. Finally, we discuss the possible periodic conditions that can be imposed on the generators of the algebra and generalize the spectral flow analysed previously in the context of the \$N\$-extended linear superconformal algebras with \$N 4\$. The \$(2+1)\$-AdS/2-CFT correspondence sheds a new light on the properties of the nonlinear superconformal algebras. It also provides a general and natural interpretation of the spectral flow.
