The Poisson superbracket Lie superalgebra on the supertorus T2d|N is considered and its quantization is carried out. It is shown that there exists a non-trivial supercentral extension by means of 2d arbitrary c-numbers (when N is even), or 2d Grassmann numbers (when N is odd). It is shown that the infinite-dimensional superalgebras on the supertorus T2d|N can be considered as certain generalizations and large-M limits of the classical superalgebras A(M| M) and Q(M) (when N is even and odd respectively).

Given a matrix Lie algebra one can construct the 3-Lie algebra by means of the trace of a matrix. In the present paper, we show that this approach can be extended to the infinite-dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold if instead of the trace of a matrix we consider a differential 1-form which satisfies certain conditions. Then we show that the same approach can be extended to matrix Lie superalgebras [Formula: see text] if instead of the trace of a matrix we make use of the supertrace of a matrix. It is proved that a graded triple commutator of matrices constructed with the help of the graded commutator and the supertrace satisfies a graded ternary Filippov–Jacobi identity. In two particular cases of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], we show that the Pauli and Dirac matrices generate the matrix 3-Lie superalgebras, and we find the non-trivial graded triple commutators of these algebras. We propose a Clifford algebra approach to 3-Lie superalgebras induced by Lie superalgebras. We also discuss an application of matrix 3-Lie superalgebras in BRST-formalism.

AbstractTensor hierarchy algebras are infinite-dimensional generalisations of Cartan-type Lie superalgebras. They are not contragredient, exhibiting an asymmetry between positive and negative levels. These superalgebras have been a focus of attention due to the fundamental rôle they play for extended geometry. In the present paper, we examine tensor hierarchy algebras which are super-extensions of over-extended (often, hyperbolic) Kac–Moody algebras. They contain novel algebraic structures. Of particular interest is the extension of a over-extended algebra by its fundamental module, an extension that contains and generalises the extension of an affine Kac–Moody algebra by a Virasoro derivation $$L_1$$ L 1 . A conjecture about the complete superalgebra is formulated, relating it to the corresponding Borcherds superalgebra.

In 1998 Victor Kac classified infinite-dimensional, transitive, irreducible ℤ-graded Lie superalgebras of finite depth. Here we classify bitransitive, irreducible ℤ-graded Lie superalgebras of infinite depth and finite growth which are not contragredient. In particular we show that the growth of every such superalgebra is equal to one.

AbstractThe natural filtration of the infinite-dimensional simple modular Lie superalgebra M over a field of characteristic p > 2 is proved to be invariant under automorphisms by discussing ad-nilpotent elements. Moreover, an intrinsic property is obtained and all the infinite-dimensional simple modular Lie superalgebras M are classified up to isomorphisms. As an application, a property of automorphisms of M is given.
