Local supersymmetry implies momentum map/Gauntlett-Pakis equations and vanishing generalized Komar forms

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: The first-order differential equations satisfied by Killing spinor bilinears (momentum map equations or Gauntlett--Pakis equations, Killing vector equations and the vanishing of the generalized Komar charge of the supersymmetric Killing vector) can be derived directly from the action of the local supersymmetry algebra on bosonic fields. We show how this comes about in several examples of increasing complexity, one of which is 11-dimensional supergravity.
