Uniqueness of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 and 3 pure supergravities in 4D

Abstract After proving the impossibility of consistent non-minimal coupling of a real Rarita-Schwinger gauge field to electromagnetism, we re-derive the necessity of introducing the graviton in order to couple a complex Rarita-Schwinger gauge field to electromagnetism, with or without a cosmological...
