Can R-symmetries act on central charges?

blefloch commented 8 years ago

Can I get rid of the weird notation (PxZ).Q? I.e. is the supertranslation algebra actually some fancy kind of semi-direct product?

blefloch commented 8 years ago

In some dimensions, {Q,Q} does not naturally contain 1-forms. Can we decide to only have central charges and no translations?
