We define a procedure that, starting from a relativistic theory of supergravity, leads to a consistent, non-relativistic version thereof. As a first application we use this limiting procedure to show how the Newton-Cartan formulation of non-relativistic gravity can be obtained from general relativity. Then we apply it in a supersymmetric case and derive a novel, non-relativistic, off-shell formulation of three-dimensional Newton-Cartan supergravity.

  1. $L_\infty$-algebraic extensions of non-Lorentzian kinematical Lie algebras, gravities, and brane couplings

    hep-th 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    L_infinity extensions of Galilean, Newton-Hooke and static algebras produce infinite towers of p-form fields that couple to torsionful non-Lorentzian gravities and yield WZW terms for (p-1)-branes via doubled coordinates.

  2. Aspects of Non-Relativistic Supersymmetric Theories

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    Discusses features of non-relativistic supersymmetric field theories from Galilean and Carrollian points of view to aid construction of electric and magnetic variants.
