Gauged supergravity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gauged supergravity is a supergravity theory with gauged gravitino, that is, the gravitino is charged with respect to some of the vector fields in the theory. Consistency of the supersymmetry transformation often requires the presence of the potential for the scalar fields of the theory, or the cosmological constant if the theory contains no scalar degree of freedom. Indeed, for extended supergravities with more than or equal to eight supercharges, the gauging of the gravitino is the only way to introduce the scalar potential.
The gauged supergravity often has the Anti de Sitter space as a supersymmetric vacuum. Notable exception is a six-dimensional N=(1,0) gauged supergravity.
