    Abstract

    © 2014, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. We briefly review the novel off-shell formulation for N-extended conformal supergravity in three spacetime dimensions developed in [1]. Our approach is based on gauging the N-extended superconformal algebra (Formula presented.) in superspace. A special feature of the formulation is that the constraints imposed imply that the covariant derivative algebra is given in terms of a single curvature superfield, the super-Cotton tensor. We also elaborate on the component structure of the Weyl multiplet.
