Conformal supergravity, twistors, and the super-BMS group

Journal Article · · Ann. Phys. (N.Y.); (United States)
; ;
The asymptotic symmetry group of General Relativity is the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group. We find the appropriate supergeneralization of this group for supergravity. The analysis is carried out using properties of the twistor equation and is valid for any space-time dimension.
