Abstract

In this paper, we will perform several theoretical analysis revolving the Coleman-Mandula theorem. Firstly, we motivate the theorem itself and argue why it is interesting to study it. Then, we present two versions of the proof for the theorem: one thought to be as detailed and conscientious as possible and another where we try to illustrate only the most essemtial arguments in order to get a general impression about its flow and structure. At the same time that we undertake this last version of the proof, we also attempt and fail to extrapolate the original proof to the nonrelativistic limit, highlighting all the conflicting points that we encounter along the way.
