Abstract:

On shell N = 2 supergravity based on OSp(2, 4) is reconstructed by means of fibre bundle analysis, Weil polynomials and generalized commutators. The detrivialization part of the theory comes from zero-form matter fields, higher-degree Weil polynomials and generalized commutators; this part becomes the same form as that in the group manifold approach. The group manifold OSp(2, 4) corresponds to the reduced bundle with a Cartan connection and a subgroup of OSp(2, 4) as the structure group.
