En este trabajo revisamos brevemente supergravedad N = 1 en cuatro dimensiones (D = 4), también llamada supergravedad pura, donde la acción es invariante bajo transformaciones de norma y de supersimetría global. Nuestro propósito es alentar a los estudiantes de licenciatura a estudiar la teoría de supergravedad, en particular presentando la demostración explícita de estas invarianzas.
In this work we briefly review N = 1 supergravity in four dimensions (D = 4), also known as pure supergravity, where the action is invariant under gauge and global supersymmetry transformations. Our purpose is to encourage undergraduate students to study the theory of supergravity, in particular by presenting the explicit demonstrations of these invariances.
