Three-dimensional non-relativistic Hietarinta supergravity by Patrick Concha, Evelyn Rodríguez, Sebastián Salgado

“…At the bosonic level, we derive the non-relativistic version of the Hietarinta model by employing a contraction process and addressing the non-degeneracy of the invariant metric. To incorporate supersymmetry, we apply the Lie algebra expansion method to obtain the non-relativistic formulation of $${\mathcal {N}}=2$$ N = 2 Hietarinta supergravity. …”
