In these lectures we discuss N-extended conformal supergravity and its spectrum in four dimensions. These theories can be considered as the massless limit of Einstein-Weyl supergravity and by taking into account their enhanced gauge…
We perform the non-linear realisation or the coset formulation of the pure N=4, D=5 supergravity. We derive the Lie superalgebra which parameterizes a coset map whose induced Cartan-Maurer form produces the bosonic field equations of the…
A representation of a subgroup H of a finite-dimensional group G can be used to induce a nonlinear realization of G. If the nonlinearly realized symmetry is gauged, then the BRST charge can be related by a similarity transformation to the…
Application of nonlinear symmetry realisation technique to gravity is studied. We identify the simplest extensions of the Poincare group suitable for nonlinear realisation. Among them only one model is suitable for description of massless…
We give a geometrical description of gravitational theories from the viewpoint of symmetries and affine structure. We show how gravity, considered as a gauge theory, can be consistently achieved by the nonlinear realization of the…
We provide the geometric actions for most general N=1 supergravity in two spacetime dimensions. Our construction implies an extension to arbitrary N. This provides a supersymmetrization of any generalized dilaton gravity theory or of any…
We present the maximally supersymmetric three-dimensional gauged supergravities. Owing to the special properties of three dimensions -- especially the on-shell duality between vector and scalar fields, and the purely topological character…
The coordinate transformations which establish the direct relationship between the actions of linear and nonlinear realizations of supermembranes are proposed. It is shown that the Rocek-Tseytlin constraint known in the framework of the…
The massless spectrum of the ten dimensional USp(32) type I string has an N=1 supergravity multiplet coupled to non-supersymmetric matter. This raises the question of the consistency of the gravitino interactions. We resolve this apparent…
We describe minimal supergravity models where supersymmetry is non-linearly realized via constrained superfields. We show that the resulting actions differ from the so called "de Sitter" supergravities because we consider constraints…
Maximal and non-maximal supergravities in three spacetime dimensions allow for a large variety of semisimple and non-semisimple gauge groups, as well as complex gauge groups that have no analog in higher dimensions. In this contribution we…
Non-linear realizations of spacetime symmetries can be obtained by a generalization of the coset construction valid for internal ones. The physical equivalence of different representations for spacetime symmetries is not obvious, since…
Space-time symmetries are a crucial ingredient of any theoretical model in physics. Unlike internal symmetries, which may or may not be gauged and/or spontaneously broken, space-time symmetries do not admit any ambiguity: they are gauged by…
We present a pedagogical discussion of the emergence of gauged supergravities from M-theory. First, a review of maximal supergravity and its global symmetries and supersymmetric solutions is given. Next, different procedures of dimensional…
The algebra A(D-3)+++ dimensionally reduces to the E(D-1) symmetry algebra of (12-D)-dimensional supergravity. An infinite set of five-dimensional gravitational objects trivially embedded in D-dimensions is constructed by identifying the…
We discuss the interplay between direct constraints on non-Newtonian gravity and particle-physics bounds in models with large extra dimensions. Existing and future bounds and the most effective ways of further testing these models in…
We explore the supersymmetry invariance of a supergravity theory in the presence of a non-trivial boundary. The explicit construction of a bulk Lagrangian based on an enlarged superalgebra, known as $AdS$-Lorentz, is presented. Using a…
In this talk we use nonlinear realizations to study the spontaneous partial breaking of rigid and local supersymmetry.
We present two types of obstacles for constructing de Sitter space in supersymmetric theories that appear as effective theories of quantum gravity. The first obstacle concerns de Sitter critical points in extended supergravity with charged…
We investigate Extended Geometric Trinity of Gravity at both classical and quantum cosmological levels using the minisuperspace approach. Adopting Noether symmetries to select viable models, we examine metric-affine theories of gravity, in…
