Survey of supergravities

Abstract

A large class of supergravities in diverse dimensions are surveyed. This includes maximal supergravities, their general gaugings in the framework of embedding tensor formalism, supergravities with less than maximal supersymmetry, their matter couplings and general gaugings. The emphasis is on summarizing their most general form to date, and primarily in their component formulation. A class of exceptional field theories in an extended geometric framework are summarized briefly. For most of the supergravities surveyed, the bosonic part of the Lagrangians and supertransformations up to leading terms in fermions are given.
