Abstract

An outline for the construction of an effective theory of interacting solitons in N=2 supergravity is presented. The solitons are described by their asymptotic properties, carrying translational and supertranslational degrees of freedom. We discuss briefly the classical and the quantized dynamics for the free soliton. The Lagrangian for the motion of a soliton in a curved supergravity background is exhibited and its implications for an effective supercharge interaction are mentioned.
