We give a review of conformal supergravity considered as a candidate for a fundamental
theory describing physics at Planck distances. Conformal supergravities are supersymmetric …

The publication of the first edition of “Introduction to Supersymmetry and Supergravity” was a
remarkable success. This second edition contains a substantial amount of new material …

We present explicit expressions for general actions of vector and scalar multiplets coupled to
N= 2 supergravity. We outline their construction which is based on the superconformal …

We present the complete structure of extended conformal supergravity for N⩽ 4. The relation
with the graded algebra SU (2, 2| N) and with the multiplet of currents is discussed. The N= 4 …

We present the correct expression for conformal anomaly in Weyl theory implying its
perturbative non-renormalizability. As a by-product it is found that non-singular cosmologies …

A number of N= 2 superconformal multiplets are presented. A corresponding calculus exists
which can be exploited for the construction of superconformally invariant actions. Actions …

We review work done over the last years on the macroscopic and microscopic entropy of
supersymmetric black holes in fourdimensional \calN= 2 supergravity and in \calN= 2 …

A comprehensive discussion of the formulation of supergravity theories in superspace is
presented. After reviewing the general formalism and the linearized theory, we exhibit a …

This graduate-level primer presents a tutorial introduction to and overview of N= 2
supergravity theories-with 8 real supercharges and in 4, 5 and 6 dimensions. First, the …
