The study examines conditions for completeness and simplicity in hom-Lie superalgebras.

The paper defines Z-graded hom-Lie superalgebras and explores their properties.

A notion of n-Lie algebra introduced by V.T. Filippov can be viewed as a generalization of a concept of binary Lie algebra to the algebras with n-ary multiplication law. A notion of Lie algebra can be extended to Z_2-graded structures giving a notion of Lie superalgebra. Analogously a notion of n-Lie algebra can be ext…

New cohomology groups generalize Euler number for Lie superalgebras.

New q-series found for osp(2|2n) Lie superalgebra.

First we recall homology groups of prer Lie superalgebras. Then introducing double weighted chain spaces, we deal with pre Lie superalgebra of multi-vector fields with polynomial coefficients on n-dimensional number space. The bracket is Schouten bracket. We have several results about Euler number and Betti numbers of …

We describe explicitly Lie superalgebra isomorphisms between the Lie superalgebras of first-order superdifferential operators on supermanifolds, showing in particular that any such isomorphism induces a diffeomorphism of the supermanifolds. We also prove that the group of automorphisms of such a Lie superalgebra is a s…

Two geometric realizations of $F(4)$ Lie superalgebra found.

The study explores Lie superalgebras constructed from Lie algebras using Schouten-like brackets.

We discuss the correspondence between Nahm's equations, the Basu-Harvey-Terashima equations, and Lie superalgebras.

Bounds on knot polynomials for Lie superalgebras of type I.

We determine the structure of the $*$-Lie superalgebra generated by a set of carefully chosen natural operators of an orientable WSD manifold of rank three. This Lie superalgebra is formed by global sections of a natural Lie superalgebra bundle, and turns out to be a product of $\mathbf{sl}(4,\C)$ with the full special…

Given a finite dimensional representation of a semisimple Lie algebra there are two ways of constructing link invariants: 1) quantum group invariants using the R-matrix, 2) the Kontsevich universal link invariant followed by the Lie algebra based weight system. Le and Murakami showed that these two link invariants are …

In this paper, we show that the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{spo}(2l+2|n)$ is into the intersection of Lie superalgebra of contact vector fields $\mathcal{K}(2l+1|n)$ and the Lie superalgebra of projective vector fields $\mathfrak{pgl}(2l+2|n)$. We use mainly the embedding used by P. Mathonet and F. Radoux in "\textit{ …

Differential geometry of the quantum Lie superalgebra of the extended quantum superplane and its Z$_2$-graded Hopf algebra structure is obtained. Its Z$_2$-graded dual Hopf algebra is also given.

The abstract discusses new 3-manifold invariants and ETQFTs from Lie superalgebra representations.

We show that the coefficients of the re-normalized link invariants of the paper "Multivariable link invariants arising from Lie superalgebras of type I" are Vassiliev invariants which give rise to a canonical family of weight systems.

Novel Lie-superalgebraic description of superstring dynamics.

The Spencer cohomology of certain graded Lie superalgebras are completely computed. This cohomology is interpreted as analogs of Riemann and Penrose tensors on supermanifolds. The results make it manifest that there is no simple generalization of Borel-Weil-Bott's theorem for Lie superalgebras.

We introduce and study a construction of higher derived brackets generated by a (not necessarily inner) derivation of a Lie superalgebra. Higher derived brackets generated by an element of a Lie superalgebra were introduced in our earlier work. Examples of higher derived brackets naturally appear in geometry and mathem…

The main result of this paper is the computation of the Lie superalgebras of holomorphic vector fields on the complex $Π$-symmetric flag supermanifolds, introduced by Yu.I.~Manin. We prove that with one exception any vector field is fundamental with respect to the natural action of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak q_n(\…

The paper realizes 6 supergeometries for the Lie superalgebra D(2,1;a).

Starting from the four normed division algebras - the real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and octonions - a systematic procedure gives a 3-cocycle on the Poincare Lie superalgebra in dimensions 3, 4, 6 and 10. A related procedure gives a 4-cocycle on the Poincare Lie superalgebra in dimensions 4, 5, 7 and 11. In…

The main result of this paper is the computation of the Lie superalgebras of holomorphic vector fields on complex flag supermanifolds, introduced by Yu.I.Manin. We prove that with several exceptions any holomorphic vector field is fundamental with respect to the natural action of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak {gl}_{m…

This paper generalize [7](math.GT/0601291): We construct new links invariants from g, a type I basic classical Lie superalgebra. The construction uses the existence of an unexpected replacement of the vanishing quantum dimension of typical module. Using this, we get a multivariable link invariant associated to any one …

Study uses superalgebra homology to classify 4D Engel-like Lie algebras.

The space of Lie algebra cohomology is usually described by the dimensions of components of certain degree even for the adjoint module as coefficients when the spaces of cochains and cohomology can be endowed with a Lie superalgebra structure. Such a description is rather imprecise: these dimensions may coincide for co…

Classifies non-integrable distributions with simple infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras of symmetries.

Let $\mathcal G$ be a Lie supergroup with Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak g$, $\mathcal M$ a supermanifold and $\mathrm{Vec}(\mathcal M)$ the set of vector fields on $\mathcal M$. Let $λ:\mathfrak g\rightarrow \mathrm{Vec}(\mathcal M)$ be an infinitesimal action, i.e. a homomorphism of Lie superalgebras. We show the existe…

Innovative series invariant for knot complements, linking to existing invariants.

We classify $N{=}1$ $d=4$ kinematical and aristotelian Lie superalgebras with spatial isotropy, but not necessarily parity nor time-reversal invariance. Employing a quaternionic formalism which makes rotational covariance manifest and simplifies many of the calculations, we find a list of $43$ isomorphism classes of Li…

Over the $(1,n)$-dimensional real superspace, $n>1$, we classify $\mathcal{K}(n)$-invariant binary differential operators acting on the superspaces of weighted densities, where $\mathcal{K}(n)$ is the Lie superalgebra of contact vector fields. This result allows us to compute the first differential cohomology of %the L…

The paper studies invariant Einstein metrics on Lie supergroups.

The theory of Vassiliev invariants deals with many modules of diagrams on which the algebra Lambda defined by Pierre Vogel acts. By specifying a quadratic simple Lie superalgebra, one obtains a character on Lambda. We show the coherence of these characters by building a map of graded algebras beetwen Lambda and a quoti…

Study examines Lie algebroids with homological sections, generalizing Q-manifolds and Lie superalgebras.

In this work, differential geometry of the Z$_3$-graded quantum superplane is constructed. The corresponding quantum Lie superalgebra and its Hopf algebra structure are obtained.

We show that a well-known result on solutions of the Maurer--Cartan equation extends to arbitrary (inhomogeneous) odd forms: any such form with values in a Lie superalgebra satisfying $dø+ø^2=0$ is gauge-equivalent to a constant, $ø=gCg^{-1}-dg\,g^{-1}\,.$ This follows from a non-Abelian version of a chain homotopy f…

New categories help understand knot algebra.

Special orthogonal representations from octonions have geometric properties linked to binary cubics.

On a compact Kähler manifold there is a canonical action of a Lie-superalgebra on the space of differential forms. It is generated by the differentials, the Lefschetz operator and the adjoints of these operators. We determine the asymptotic distribution of irreducible representations of this Lie-superalgebra on the eig…

The definition of Kaehler manifold is superized. In the super setting, it admits a continuous parameter, unlike their analogs on manifolds. This parameter runs the same singular supervariety of parameters that parameterize deformations of the Schouten bracket (a.k.a. Buttin bracket, a.k.a. anti-bracket) considered as d…

We define an annular version of odd Khovanov homology and prove that it carries an action of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}(1|1)$ which is preserved under annular Reidemeister moves.

The note answers a question about Betti numbers for 1D Euclidean space.

We present details of a geometric method to associate a Lie superalgebra with a large class of bosonic supergravity vacua of the type AdS x X, corresponding to elementary branes in M-theory and type II string theory.

New knot invariants discovered using mirror symmetry.

We realize the simple Lie superalgebra G(3) as supersymmetry of various geometric structures, most importantly super-versions of the Hilbert-Cartan equation (SHC) and Cartan's involutive PDE system that exhibit G(2) symmetry. We provide the symmetries explicitly and compute, via the first Spencer cohomology groups, the…

We prove that supersymmetry backgrounds of (1,0) and (2,0) six-dimensional supergravity theories preserving more than one half of the supersymmetry are locally homogeneous. As a byproduct we also establish that the Killing spinors of such a background generate a Lie superalgebra.
