From osp(1|32)⊕osp(1|32) to the M-theory superalgebra: a contraction procedure

We show the impossibility to obtain the D’auria–Fré-type superalgebras that allow for an underlying gauge theoretical structure of D = 11 supergravity from the superalgebra osp (1|32)⊕ osp (1|32)−, by means of aWeimar-Woods contraction.
