On Gauged Maximal Supergravity In Six Dimensions

Abstract

The maximal SO(5) gauged D=7 supergravity is dimensionally reduced to six dimensions yielding a new SO(5) gauged D=6 model. It is shown that, unlike in D=7, the SO(5) gauge coupling constant can be taken to zero to yield the maximally extended supergravity in six dimensions. It is also shown that the limit of D=5 N=4 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity in which the U(1) coupling constant is turned off can be obtained.

26 pages, LaTeX, no figures. Significant simplifications of final results have been made. Also an appendix concerning the limit of D=5 N=4 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity, in which the U(1) coupling constant is turned off, has been added. Minor typos have been corrected. Complete bosonic and fermionic Lagrangians and susy transformation laws have been added as appendices
