Abstract

We provide a systematic analysis of three-dimensional \( \mathcal{N} \) = 2 extended Bargmann superalgebra and its Newton-Hooke, Lifshitz and Schrödinger extensions. These algebras admit invariant non-degenerate bi-linear forms which we utilized to construct corresponding Chern-Simons supergravity actions.
