Description
We present the complete structure of extended conformal supergravity for N <= 4. The relation with the graded algebra SU(2,2 vertical stroke N) and with the multiplet of currents is discussed. The N = 4 superconformal theory has a formulation with local SU(4) x U(1) and rigid SU(1,1) invariance. We give the linearized invariant actions for all N. For N = 2 we exhibit the complete non-linear lagrangian. (orig.)
