The $\mathcal{N}=1$ AdS-Lorentz superalgebra is studied and its relationship to semigroup expansion developed. Using this mathematical tool, the invariant tensors and Casimir operators are found. In terms of these invariants, a three-dimensionnal Chern--Simons supergravity action with AdS-Lorentz symmetry is constructed. The Killing spinors for a BTZ black-hole like solution of the theory are discussed.
We present a generalization of the standard Inönü-Wigner contraction by rescaling not only the generators of a Lie superalgebra but also the arbitrary constants appearing in the components of the invariant tensor. The procedure presented here allows to obtain explicitly the Chern-Simons supergravity action of a contracted superalgebra. In particular we show that the Poincaré limit can be performed to a $D=2+1$ $\left(p,q\right) $ $% AdS$ Chern-Simons supergravity in presence of the exotic form. We also construct a new three-dimensional $\left(2,0\right) $ Maxwell Chern-Simons supergravity theory as a particular limit of $\left(2,0\right) $ $AdS$ -Lorentz supergravity theory. The generalization for $\mathcal{N}=p+q$ gravitini is also considered.
We present the construction of the $D=3$ Chern-Simons supergravity action without cosmological constant from the minimal Maxwell superalgebra $s\mathcal{M}_{3}$. This superalgebra contains two Majorana fermionic charges and can be obtained from the $\mathfrak{osp}\left( 2|1\right) \otimes\mathfrak{sp}\left( 2\right) $ superalgebra using the abelian semigroup expansion procedure. The components of the Maxwell invariant tensor are explicitly derived.
