2d, N=2 and N=4 supergravity and the Liouville theory in superspace

Abstract

The two-dimensional manifestly locally supersymmetric actions describing the N=2 and N=4 extended super-Liouville theory coupled to the N=2 and N=4 conformal supergravity, respectively, are constructed in superspace. It is shown that the N=4 super-Liouville multiplet is described by the improved twisted-II scalar multiplet TM-II, whose kinetic terms are given by the SU(2)xU(1) WZNW model.
