$$D=4$$ D=4 supergravity from the Maxwell-Weyl superalgebra
Abstract We present the construction of the first-order $$D=4$$ D=4 , $${\mathcal {N}}=1$$ N=1 supergravity action by gauging the Maxwell-Weyl superalgebra. The four-form lagrangian is constructed by using the curvatures of the algebra and the local scale invariance of the action is achieved through...

| Summary: | Abstract We present the construction of the first-order $$D=4$$ D=4 , $${\mathcal {N}}=1$$ N=1 supergravity action by gauging the Maxwell-Weyl superalgebra. The four-form lagrangian is constructed by using the curvatures of the algebra and the local scale invariance of the action is achieved through the introduction of a compensating scalar field. Finally, we find the generalized Einstein equation with a coordinate dependent cosmological term. |
