## TL;DR

This paper introduces a novel method for deriving three-dimensional Poincaré supergravity using Chern-Simons theory and explores their asymptotic symmetries, revealing new extended super-BMS$_{3}$ algebras with internal symmetries.

## Contribution

It presents a new approach to obtain $	ext{N}$-extended Poincaré supergravity and extends this to their asymptotic symmetries, uncovering novel super-BMS$_{3}$ algebras with internal symmetry.

## Key findings

- Super-BMS$_{3}$ algebras are obtained as expansions of Virasoro superalgebras.
- Extended super-BMS$_{3}$ algebras are centrally extended and include internal symmetries.
- Finite subalgebras of super Poincaré with central and automorphism generators are identified.

## Abstract

A new approach for obtaining the three-dimensional Chern-Simons supergravity for the Poincar\'e algebra is presented. The $\mathcal{N}$-extended Poincar\'e supergravity is obtained by expanding the super Lorentz theory. We extend our procedure to their respective asymptotic symmetries and show that the $\mathcal{N}=(1,2,4)$ super-BMS$_{3}$ appear as expansions of one Virasoro superalgebra. Interestingly, the $\mathcal{N}$-extended super-BMS$_{3}$ obtained here are not only centrally extended but also endowed with internal symmetry. We also show that the $\mathcal{N}$-extended super Poincar\'e algebras with both central and automorphism generators are finite subalgebras.
