AbstractWe present a construction ‘à la Chevalley’ of connected affine supergroups associated with Lie superalgebras of type D(2, 1; a), for any possible value of the parameter a. This extends the results by Fioresi and Gavarini, in which all other simple Lie superalgebras of classical type were considered. The case of simple Lie superalgebras of Cartan type is dealt with in a previous paper by the author, so this work completes the programme of constructing connected affine supergroups associated with any simple Lie superalgebra.

A new family of finite-dimensional modular Lie superalgebras Γ is defined. The simplicity and generators of Γ are studied and an explicit description of the derivation superalgebra of Γ is given. Moreover, it is proved that Γ is not isomorphic to any known Lie superalgebra of Cartan type.

Certain important results concerning p-envelopes of modular Lie algebras are generalized to the super-case. In particular, any p-envelope of the Lie algebra of a Lie superalgebra can be naturally extended to a restricted envelope of the Lie superalgebra. As an application, a theorem on the representations of Lie superalgebras is given, which is a super-version of Iwasawa's theorem in Lie algebra case. As an example, the minimal restricted envelopes are computed for three series of modular Lie superalgebras of Cartan type.

Suppose the underlying field is of characteristic [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we prove that the automorphisms of the finite-dimensional graded (non-restircited) Lie superalgebras of Cartan-type [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] can uniquely extend to the ones of the infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra of Cartan-type [Formula: see text]. Then a concrete group embedding from [Formula: see text] into [Formula: see text] is established, where [Formula: see text] is any finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra of Cartan-type [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the underlying (associative) superalgebra of [Formula: see text]. The normal series of the automorphism groups of [Formula: see text] are also considered.

Let X be a restricted Lie superalgebra of Cartan type W, S, H or K over a field of prime characteristic. In this paper, we describe the quotients of the standard normal series of the automorphism group of X. As an application, the results above are used to discuss the p-characters of the irreducible representations for X.

A class of finite-dimensional Cartan-type Lie superalgebras H(n,m) over a field of prime characteristic is studied in this paper. We first determine the derivation superalgebra of H(n,m). Then we obtain that H(n,m) is restrictable and it is an extension of the Lie superalgebra [Formula: see text]. Finally, we prove that H(n,m) is isomorphic to a subalgebra of the restricted Hamiltonian Lie superalgebra [Formula: see text].

We study the quantum Hamiltonian reduction of affine Lie algebras and the free field realization of the associated W algebra. For the nonsimply laced case this reduction does not agree with the usual coset construction of the W minimal model. In particular, we find that the coset model [Formula: see text] can be obtained through the quantum Hamiltonian reduction of the affine Lie superalgebra B(0, n)(1). To show this we also construct the Feigin-Fuchs representation of affine Lie superalgebras.

Many theorems and formulas of Lie superalgebras run quite parallel to Lie algebras, sometimes giving interesting results. So it is quite natural to extend the new concepts of Lie algebra immediately to Lie superalgebra case as the later type of algebras have wide applications in physics and related theories. Using the concept of isoclinism, Saeedi and Sheikh-Mohseni [A characterization of stem algebras in terms of central derivations, Algebr. Represent. Theory 20 (2017) 1143–1150; On [Formula: see text]-derivations of Filippov algebra, to appear in Asian-Eur. J. Math.; S. Sheikh-Mohseni, F. Saeedi and M. Badrkhani Asl, On special subalgebras of derivations of Lie algebras, Asian-Eur. J. Math. 8(2) (2015) 1550032] recently studied the central derivation of nilpotent Lie algebra with nilindex 2. The purpose of the present paper is to continue and extend the investigation to obtain some similar results for Lie superalgebras, as isoclinism in Lie superalgebra is being recently introduced.

Let 𝔤 be an n-Lie superalgebra. We study the double derivation algebra [Formula: see text] and describe the relation between [Formula: see text] and the usual derivation Lie superalgebra Der(𝔤). We show that the set [Formula: see text] of all double derivations is a subalgebra of the general linear Lie superalgebra gl(𝔤) and the inner derivation algebra ad(𝔤) is an ideal of [Formula: see text]. We also show that if 𝔤 is a perfect n-Lie superalgebra with certain constraints on the base field, then the centralizer of ad(𝔤) in [Formula: see text] is trivial. Finally, we give that for every perfect n-Lie superalgebra 𝔤, the triple derivations of the derivation algebra Der(𝔤) are exactly the derivations of Der(𝔤).

AbstractLet ${\Xmathfrak g}={\Xmathfrak g}_{\zerox }\oplus {\Xmathfrak g}_{\onex }$ be a classical Lie superalgebra and let ℱ be the category of finite-dimensional ${\Xmathfrak g}$-supermodules which are completely reducible over the reductive Lie algebra ${\Xmathfrak g}_{\zerox }$. In [B. D. Boe, J. R. Kujawa and D. K. Nakano, Complexity and module varieties for classical Lie superalgebras, Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN (2011), 696–724], we demonstrated that for any module M in ℱ the rate of growth of the minimal projective resolution (i.e. the complexity of M) is bounded by the dimension of ${\Xmathfrak g}_{\onex }$. In this paper we compute the complexity of the simple modules and the Kac modules for the Lie superalgebra $\Xmathfrak {gl}(m|n)$. In both cases we show that the complexity is related to the atypicality of the block containing the module.
