The recent construction of the non-semisimple gaugings of maximal D=5 supergravity is reported here. This construction is worked out in the so-called rheonomic approach, based on Free Differential Algebras and the solution of their Bianchi…
We perform a consistent reduction of 6d matter-coupled F(4) supergravity on a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma_\mathfrak{g}$ of genus $\mathfrak{g}$, at the level of the bosonic action. The result is an $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauged supergravity…
