Covariant and Consistent Anomalies in Supergravity

Authors: Boris Stoyanov

The scientific article reviews some properties of the low-energy effective actions for gauged supergravity models. We summarize the current state of knowledge regarding gravity theories withminimal supersymmetry. We provide an elegant extension of the theory and give a deffinitionsof the anomalies in gauged supergravity. The difference between the covariant and consistentanomalies is carefully explained in terms of their different origins. The gauge structure of anomalies and the related supersymmetry currents is analyzed in detail. The results are extended todetermine the structure of gravitational and mixed anomalies in supergravity. The deep relationbetween anomalies and inconsistency is emphasized in this research. The conditions for anomalycancellation in these supergravity theories typically constitute determined types of equations.
