Abstract

Considering supergravity theory is a natural step in the development of gravity models. This paper follows the ``algebraic`` path and constructs possible extensions of the Poincar\'e and Anti-de-Sitter algebras, which inherit their basic commutation structure. Previously achieved results of this type are fragmentary and show only a limited fraction of possible algebraic realizations. Our paper presents the newly obtained symmetry algebras, evaluated within an efficient pattern-based computational method of generating the so-called 'resonating' algebraic structures. These supersymmetric extensions of algebras, going beyond the Poincar\'e and Anti-de Sitter ones, contain additional bosonic generators ZabZ_{ab} (Lorentz-like), and UaU_a (translational-like) added to the standard Lorentz generator JabJ_{ab} and translation generator PaP_{a}. Our analysis includes all cases up to two fermionic supercharges, QαQ_{\alpha} and YαY_{\alpha}. The delivered plethora of superalgebras includes few past results and offers a vastness of new examples. The list of the cases is complete and contains all superalgebras up to two of Lorentz-like, translation-like, and supercharge-like generators (JP+Q)+(ZU+Y)=JPZU+QY(JP+Q)+(ZU+Y)=JPZU+QY. In the latter class, among 667667 founded superalgebras, the 264264 are suitable for direct supergravity construction. For each of them, one can construct a unique supergravity model defined by the Lagrangian. As an example, we consider one of the algebra configurations and provide its Lagrangian realization.
