Description
The manifestly E6 covariant formulation of five-dimensional gauged maximal supergravity is presented. This leads to a novel non-Abelian vector-tensor system, subject to an intricate set of gauge transformations. Generalizations of the appearing group-theoretical structures seem to play a natural role in gauged supergravities in various space-time dimensions.
