On the Maxwell supergravity and flat limit in 2 + 1 dimensions

The construction of the three-dimensional Chern–Simons supergravity theory invariant under the minimal Maxwell superalgebra is presented. We obtain a supergravity action without cosmological constant term characterized by three coupling constants. We also show that the Maxwell supergravity presented...

description The construction of the three-dimensional Chern–Simons supergravity theory invariant under the minimal Maxwell superalgebra is presented. We obtain a supergravity action without cosmological constant term characterized by three coupling constants.
