We present a generalization of the standard In\"on\"u-Wigner contraction by rescaling not only the generators of a Lie superalgebra but also the arbitrary constants appearing in the components of the invariant tensor. The procedure…
We propose a modification to the Lie algebra $S$-expansion method. The modification is carried out by imposing a condition on the $S$-expansion procedure, when the semigroup is given by a cyclic group of even order. The $S$-expanded…
A tensor extension of the Poincar\'e algebra is proposed for the arbitrary dimensions. Casimir operators of the extension are constructed. A possible supersymmetric generalization of this extension is also found in the dimensions $D=2,3,4$.

We use the expansion of superalgebras procedure (summarized in the text) to derive Chern-Simons (CS) actions for the (p,q)-Poincare supergravities in three-dimensional spacetime. After deriving the action for the (p,0)-Poincare supergravity…
A Chern-Simons action for supergravity in odd-dimensional spacetimes is proposed. For all odd dimensions, the local symmetry group is a non trivial supersymmetric extension of the Poincar\'e group. In $2+1$ dimensions the gauge group…
Four-dimensional extended: Poincar\'e, AdS-Lorentz and Maxwell algebras, are obtained by expanding an extension of de Sitter or conformal algebra, SO(4,1) or SO(3,2). The procedure can be generalized to obtain a new family of extended…
We show that an extended $3D$ Schr\"odinger algebra introduced in [1] can be reformulated as a $3D$ Poincar\'e algebra extended with an SO(2) R-symmetry generator and an $SO(2)$ doublet of bosonic spin-1/2 generators whose commutator closes…
In this paper we show how the method of Lie algebra expansions may be used to obtain, in a simple way, both the extended Bargmann Lie superalgebra and the Chern-Simons action associated to it in three dimensions, starting from $D=3$,…
