Embedding theorem ofZ-graded Lie superalgebras

The embedding theorem ofZ-graded Lie superalgebras is given and proved. As a subsidiary result it is proved that a transitiveZ-graded restricted lie superalgebm must be isomorphic toW(m,n, 1) if the dimension ofG _i satisfies a certain condition.

Results pertaining to the theory of representations of classical Lie superalgebras are collected in the survey.Translated from Itogi Nauki i Tekhniki, Seriya Sovremennye Problemy Matematiki, Noveishie Dostizheniya, Vol. 25, pp. 3–50, 1984.     

Detecting cohomology for Lie superalgebras

In this paper we use invariant theory to develop the notion of cohomological detection for Type I classical Lie superalgebras. In particular we show that the cohomology with coefficients in an arbitrary module can be detected on smaller subalgebras. These results are used later to affirmatively answer questions, which were originally posed in Boe et al. (2010) [5] and Bagci et al. (2008) [2], about realizing support varieties for Lie superalgebras via rank varieties constructed for the smaller detecting subalgebras.     

Borel-Weil-Bott theory for classical Lie superalgebras

The paper is devoted to a systematic construction of the elements of Borel-Weil-Bott theory in the supercase. The main result is a presentation of the cohomology of typical irreducible G-sheaves on G/B, where G is the connected component of the identity in a classical complex Lie supergroup and B G an arbitrary Borel subsupergroup. Also presented are some simple known results concerning the cohomology of irreducible G-sheaves on G/P for a parabolic subsupergroup P.Translated from Itogi Nauki i Tekhniki, Seriya Sovremennye Problemy Matematiki, Noveishie Dostizheniya, Vol. 32, pp. 71–124, 1988.     

Super-biderivations of Lie superalgebras

In this paper, we attempt to investigate the super-biderivations of Lie superalgebras. Furthermore, we prove that all super-biderivations on the centerless super-Virasoro algebras are inner super-biderivations. Finally, we study the linear super commuting maps on the centerless super-Virasoro algebras.     

Lie superderivations of superalgebras

The aim of this paper is to investigate Lie superderivations of superalgebras, using the theory of functional identities in superalgebras. As a consequence, we obtain a definitive result on Lie superderivations of prime superalgebras.     

Infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian Lie superalgebras

The natural filtration of the infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian Lie superalgebra over a field of positive characteristic is proved to be invariant under automorphisms by characterizing ad-nilpotent elements. We are thereby able to obtain an intrinsic characterization of the Hamiltonian Lie superalgebra and establish a property of the automorphisms of the Lie superalgebra.     

Pi-envelopes of Lie superalgebras

In this paper we find necessary and sufficient conditions on a finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra under which any associative PI-envelope of is finite-dimensional. We also extend M. Scheunert's result which enables one to pass from color Lie superalgebras to the ordinary ones, to the case of gradings by an arbitrary abelian group.

     

Completely reducible Lie subalgebras

Let G be a connected and reductive group over the algebraically closed field K. J-P. Serre has introduced the notion of a G-completely reducible subgroup H ⊂ G. In this paper, we give a notion of G-complete reducibility—G-cr for short—for Lie subalgebras of Lie(G), and we show that if the closed subgroup H ⊂ G is G-cr, then Lie(H) is G-cr as well.     

Completable nilpotent Lie superalgebras

We discuss a class of filiform Lie superalgebras L^n,m. From these Lie superalgebras, all the other filiform Lie superalgebras can be obtained by deformations. We have decompositions of Der0ˉ(L^n,m) and Der1 (L^n,m). By computing a maximal torus on each L^n,m, we show that L^n,m are completable nilpotent Lie superalgebras. We also view L^n,m as Lie algebras, prove that L^n,m are of maximal rank, and show that L^n,m are completable nilpotent Lie algebras. As an application of the results, we show a Heisenberg superalgebra is a completable nilpotent Lie superalgebra.
