We give a simple introduction to ordinary and conformal supergravity, and write their actions as squares of curvatures.

One Ring to Rule Them All: A Unified Topological Framework for 4D Superconformal Anomalies
hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

All 4D N=1 superconformal anomalies are shown to fit a single BRST cohomology classification via a constraint ideal, with the a and c anomalies as the two cohomology classes.
On AdS$_4$ superspace and supergravity
hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

The authors construct linear representations of N=1 AdS4 supersymmetry and use them to rewrite the AdS4 supergravity action in a manifestly covariant way.
