Non-closure of constraint algebra in N=1 supergravity

Abstract

The algebra of constraints arising in the canonical quantization of N=1 supergravity in four dimensions is investigated. Using the holomorphic action, the structure functions of the algebra are given and it is shown that the algebra does not close formally for two chosen operator orderings.
