Abstract
Supergravity1,2,3 has better renormalizability properties than Einstein gravitation. Explicit calculations and theoretical proofs indicate that the so-called SO(n) models are one- and two-loop finite. Nothing is yet known about three-loop properties.

A related possibility is to use the dimensionlessness of gui to use as basis gui + K2(n-4)-1 (aRUv+SguvR) on which the theory might be truly renormalizable (’t Hooft and Veltman).
