N=1 Jackiw -Teitelboim supergravity beyond the Schwarzian regime
Abstract
We investigate the asymptotic symmetry structure of two--dimensional dilaton gravity in its N=1 supersymmetric extension based on the osp(1|2) Lie superalgebra. Within the BF theoretical framework, we analyze affine and superconformal boundary conditions and systematically derive the corresponding asymptotic symmetry algebra(ASA). While the bosonic theory reproduces the Virasoro algebra and its affine enhancement, the supersymmetric extension yields a classical N=1 superconformal algebra whose realization is dynamically restricted by the dilaton supermultiplet. We show that the boundary behavior of the dilaton induces a controlled dynamical reduction of the full affine osp(1|2)k symmetry to its OSp(1|2) stabilizer subalgebra, while simultaneously generating an abelian ideal composed of mutually commuting modes. This establishes a coherent interplay between asymptotic symmetry breaking and symmetry extension in low--dimensional supergravity.Our construction generalizes previous analyses of sl(2,R) dilaton gravity to the supersymmetric setting and provides a consistent bulk--based framework for investigating boundary dynamics beyond the Schwarzian regime.
