In the book "Supergravity" (by D. Freedman and A. Van Proeyen) they talk about why N=1 de-sitter superalgebra is impossible to construct (Section 12.6.1).
Basically de-Sitter algebra is a modification of flat space symmetry algebra with: [Pμ,Pν]=−14L2Mμν
Then if we try to embed this into a superalgebra with say: [Pμ,Qα]=a4L(γμQ)α with arbitrary "a" we see that the Jacobi identity involving [Pμ,Pν,Qα]is not satisfied.
Whereas in the paper "Construction of the de Sitter supergravity"(arXiv:1602.01678v2) the authors say:
Super-dS algebras do exist for even N=1 in 4 dimensions (and for other D ≤ 6).
Which implies that having an R symmetry, somehow makes the above problem go away. My question is, how does that work out? Any reference is welcome.
Note: I tried to read W. Nahm's paper in which he classifies all the SUSY algebras. But that paper just has the list of algebras. If there's a reference that tackles the above problem in detail, it would be really appreciated.
