Noether-Wald charge in supergravity: the fermionic contribution

Abstract: We study the invariance of N=1,d=4 supergravity solutions under diffeormophisms and show that, in order to obtain consistent conditions (``Killing equations'') invariant under local supersymmetry transformations, one has to perform supersymmetry transformations generated by the superpartner of the vector that generates standard diffeomorphisms, just as a superspace analysis indicates. Using these transformations, we construct a Noether-Wald charge of N=1,d=4 supergravity with fermionic contributions which is diff- Lorentz- and supersymmetry-invariant (up to a total derivative).
