Event details
Superconformal construction of de Sitter cosmologies
Recently, supergravity models for inflation are improved by using constrained multiplets. These avoid troublesome scalar fields, hiding supersymmetric partners. The constructions of these models in supergravity involve extensions of superconformal methods. We review the superconformal construction of matter-coupled supergravities including the de Sitter models based on constrained superfields.
