Semi-simple extension of the (Super) Poincaré algebra (Q549034): Difference between revisions

Summary: A semi-simple tensor extension of the Poincaré algebra is proposed for the arbitrary dimensions \(D\). It is established that this extension is a direct sum of the \(D\)-dimensional Lorentz algebra so(\(D - 1\), 1) and \(D\)-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) algebra so(\(D - 1\), 2). A supersymmetric also semi-simple generalization of this extension is constructed in the \(D=4\) dimensions. It is shown that this generalization is a direct sum of the 4-dimensional Lorentz algebra so(3, 1) and orthosymplectic algebra osp(1, 4) (super-AdS algebra).
