Theories of partial supersymmetry breaking N =2→ N =1 in four dimensions are derived by coupling the N =2 massless gravitino multiplet to N =2 supergravity in five dimensions and performing a generalized dimensional reduction on S 1 / Z 2 with the Scherk–Schwarz mechanism. These theories agree with results that were previously derived from four dimensions.
