Abstract

Starting from the new minimal multiplet of supergravity in 2+22+2 dimensions, we construct two types of self-dual supergravity theories. One of them involves a self-duality condition on the Riemann curvature and implies the equations of motion following from the Hilbert-Einstein type supergravity action. The other one involves a self-duality condition on a {\it torsionful} Riemann curvature with the torsion given by the field-strength of an antisymmetric tensor field, and implies the equations of motion that follow from an R2R^2-type action.
