Non-Linear Realisation of the Pure N=4, D=5 Supergravity

Abstract

We perform the non-linear realisation or the coset formulation of the pure N=4, D=5 supergravity. We derive the Lie superalgebra which parameterizes a coset map whose induced Cartan-Maurer form produces the bosonic field equations of the pure N=4, D=5 supergravity by canonically satisfying the Cartan-Maurer equation. We also obtain the first-order field equations of the theory as a twisted self-duality condition for the Cartan-Maurer form within the geometrical framework of the coset construction.
