Suppose the ground field $\mathbb{F}$ is an algebraically closed field characteristic of $p>2$. In this paper, we investigate the restricted cohomology theory of restricted Lie superalgebras. Algebraic interpretations of low dimensional restricted cohomology of restricted Lie superalgebra are given. We show that there is a family of restricted model filiform Lie superalgebra $L_{p,p}^λ$ structures parameterized by elements $λ\in \mathbb{F}^{p}.$ We explicitly describe both the $1$-dimensional ordinary and restricted cohomology superspaces of $L_{p,p}^λ$ with coefficients in the $1$-dimensional trivial module and show that these superspaces are equal. We also describe the $2$-dimensional ordinary and restricted cohomology superspaces of $L_{p,p}^λ$ with coefficients in the $1$-dimensional trivial module and show that these superspaces are unequal.
In this article, we introduce a deformation cohomology of Leibniz superalgebras. Also, we introduce formal deformation theory of Leibniz superalgebras. Using deformation cohomology we study the formal deformation theory of Leibniz superalgebras.
Suppose the ground field $\mathbb{F}$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2, 3. We determine the Betti numbers and make a decomposition of the associative superalgebra of the cohomology for the model filiform Lie superalgebra. We also describe the associative superalgebra structures of the (divided power) cohomology for some low-dimensional filiform Lie superalgebras.
In this paper, we study Hom-Lie superalgebras of Heisenberg type. For 3-dimensional Heisenberg Hom-Lie superalgebras, we describe their Hom-Lie super structures, compute the cohomology spaces and characterize their infinitesimal deformations.

In this paper, all (super)algebras are over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2, 3$. We construct the so-called 5-sequences of cohomology for central extensions of a Lie superalgebra and prove that they are exact. Then we prove that the multipliers of a Lie superalgebra are isomorphic to the second cohomology group with coefficients in the trivial module for the Lie superalgebra under consideration.
In this paper, we study the cup products and Betti numbers over cohomology superspaces of two-step nilpotent Lie superalgebras with coefficients in the adjoint modules over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. As an application, we prove that the cup product over the adjoint cohomology superspaces for Heisenberg Lie superalgebras is trivial and we also determine the adjoint Betti numbers for Heisenberg Lie superalgebras by means of Hochschild-Serre spectral sequences.
By definition, a quadratic Lie superalgebra is a Lie superalgebra endowed with a non-degenerate supersymmetric bilinear form which satisfies the even and invariant properties. In this paper we calculate all of the second cohomology group of elementary quadratic Lie superalgebras which have been classified in \cite{DU14} by applying the super-Poisson bracket on the super exterior algebra. Besides, we give the classification of 8-dimensional solvable quadratic Lie superalgebras having 6-dimensional indecomposable even part. The method is based on the double extension and classification results o…
This paper is primarily concerned with the first cohomology of $\frak{gl}_{0|2}$ with coefficients in the generalized Witt Lie superalgebra, where $\frak{gl}_{0|2}$ is a subalgebra of the general linear Lie superalgebra. The derivations and inner derivations from $\frak{gl}_{0|2}$ into submodules of the generalized Witt Lie superalgebra are represented by matrices, respectively. Then the first cohomology of $\frak{gl}_{0|2}$ with coefficients in the generalized Witt Lie superalgebra is completely determined by matrices.
The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of restricted Hom- Lie superalgebras. This class of algebras is a generalization of both restricted Hom-Lie algebras and restricted Lie superalgebras. In this paper, we present a way to obtain restricted Hom-Lie superalgebras from the classical restricted Lie superalgebras along with algebra en- domorphisms. Homomorphisms relations between restricted Hom-Lie superalgebras are defined and studied. Also, we obtain some proper- ties of p-maps and restrictable Hom-Lie superalgebras.
The second cohomology group (SCG) of the Jordan superalgebra $\mathcal{D}_{t}$, $t\neq 0$, is calculated by using the coefficients which appear in the regular superbimodule $\mathrm{Reg}\mathcal{D}_t$. Contrary to the case of algebras, this group is nontrivial thanks to the non-splitting caused by the Wedderburn Decomposition Theorem \cite{Faber1}. First, to calculate the SCG of a Jordan superalgebra we use split-null extension of the Jordan superalgebra and the Jordan superalgebra representation. We prove conditions that satisfy the bilinear forms $h$ that determine the SCG in Jordan superalg…
Simple modules for the restricted Witt superalgebra $W(m,n,1)$ are considered. Conditions are provided for the restricted and nonrestricted Kac modules to be simple.
Suppose the ground field to be algebraically closed and of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. All Heisenberg Lie superalgebras consist of two super versions of the Heisenberg Lie algebras, $\frak{h}_{2m,n}$ and $\frak{ba}_n$ with $m$ a nonnegative integer and $n$ a positive integer. The space of a "classical" Heisenberg Lie superalgebra $\frak{h}_{2m,n}$ is the direct sum of a superspace with a non-degenerate anti-supersymmetric even bilinear form and a one-dimensional space of values of this form constituting the even center. The other super analog of the Heisenberg Lie algebra, $\fra…
The main object of study of this paper is the notion of 3-Lie superalgebras with superderivations. We consider a representation $(Φ,\mathcal{P})$ of a $3$-Lie superalgebra $\mathcal{Q}$ on $\mathcal{P}$ and construct first-order cohomologies by using superderivations of $\mathcal{P},\mathcal{Q}$ which induces a Lie superalgebra $\mathcal{T}_Φ$ and its representation $Ψ$. Then we consider abelian extensions of $3$-Lie superalgebras of the form $0\rightarrow \mathcal{P}\hookrightarrow \mathcal{L}\rightarrow \mathcal{Q}\rightarrow 0$ with $[\mathcal{P},\mathcal{P},\mathcal{L}]=0$ and construct an…
The purpose of this paper is to compute the second adjoint cohomology group of q-deformed Witt superalgebras. They are Hom-Lie superalgebras obtained by q-deformation of Witt Lie superalgebra, that is one considers $σ$-derivations instead of classical derivations.
Let $(L, α)$ be a Hom-Lie-Yamaguti superalgebra. We first introduce the representation and cohomology theory of Hom-Lie-Yamaguti superalgebras. Furthermore, we introduce the notions of generalized derivations and representations of $(L, α)$ and present some properties. Finally, we investigate the deformations of $(L, α)$ by choosing some suitable cohomology.
The aim of this paper is to study the cohomology of Hom-Leibniz superalgebras. We construct the $q$-deformed Heisenberg-Virasoro superalgebra of Hom-type and provide as application the computations of the derivations and second cohomology group. Moreover, we extend to graded case the Takhtajan's construction of a cohomology of $n$-ary Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras starting from cohomology of Hom-Leibniz algebras.
The purpose of this paper is to extend the cohomology and conformal derivation theories of the classical Lie conformal algebras to Lie conformal superalgebras. Firstly, we construct the semidirect product of a Lie conformal superalgebra and its conformal module, and study derivations of this semidirect product. Secondly, we develop cohomology theory of Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss some applications to the study of deformations of Lie conformal superalgebras. Finally, we introduce generalized derivations of Lie conformal superalgebras and study their properties.
The purpose of this paper is to define the representation and the cohomology of Hom-Lie superalgebras. Moreover we study Central extensions and provide as application the computations of the derivations and second cohomology group of q-deformed Witt superalgebra.
We introduce the concept of 3-Lie-Rinehart superalgebra and systematically describe a cohomology complex by considering coefficient modules. Furthermore, we study the relationships between a Lie-Rinehart superalgebra and its induced 3-Lie-Rinehart superalgebra. The deformations of 3-Lie-Rinehart superalgebra are considered via the cohomology theory.
This paper considers a family of finite dimensional simple Lie superalgebras of Cartan type over a field of characteristic $p>3$, the so-called special odd contact superalgebras. First, the spanning sets are determined for the Lie superalgebras and their relatives. Second, the spanning sets are used to characterize the simplicity and to compute the dimension formulas. Third, we determine the superderivation algebras and the first cohomology groups. Finally, the dimension formulas and the first cohomology groups are used to make a comparison between the special odd contact superalgebras and the…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of BiHom-Lie conformal superalgebras. We develop its representation theory and define the cohomology group with coefficients in a module. Finally, we introduce conformal derivations of BiHom-Lie conformal superalgebras and study some of their properties.
Let L be a Lie superalgebra over a fled of characteristic p\neq 2 with enveloping algebra U(L) or let L be a restricted Lie superalgebra over a field of characteristic p > 2 with restricted enveloping algebra u(L). In this note, we establish when u(L) or U(L) is bounded Lie Engel.
Let ${\mathfrak g}$ be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. In this paper, the author studies the cohomology groups for the subalgebra $\mathfrak{n}^{+}$ relative to the BBW parabolic subalgebras constructed by D. Grantcharov, N. Grantcharov, Nakano and Wu. These classical Lie superalgebras have a triangular decomposition ${\mathfrak g}={\mathfrak n}^{-}\oplus {\mathfrak f} \oplus {\mathfrak n}^{+}$ where $\mathfrak f$ is a detecting subalgebra as introduced by Boe, Kujawa and Nakano. It is shown that there exists a Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence that collapses for all infinite families of…
Let $ 0\rightarrow \mathfrak{a} \rightarrow \mathfrak{e} \rightarrow \mathfrak{g} \rightarrow 0$ be an abelian extension of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$. In this article we consider the problems of extending endomorphisms of $\mathfrak{a}$ and lifting endomorphisms of $\mathfrak{g}$ to certain endomorphisms of $\mathfrak{e}$. We connect these problems to the cohomology of $\mathfrak{g}$ with coefficients in $\mathfrak{a}$ through construction of two exact sequences, which is our main result, involving various endomorphism groups and the second cohomology. The first exact sequence is obt…
In this paper, we study the simple modules for the restricted Lie superalgebra $gl(m|n)$. A condition for the simplicity of the induced modules is given, and an analogue of Kac-Weisfeiler theorem is proved.
This paper is devoted to investigating the structure theory of a class of not-finitely graded Lie superalgebras related to generalized super-Virasoro algebras. In particular, we completely determine the derivation algebras, the automorphism groups and the second cohomology groups of these Lie superalgebras.
The purpose of this paper is to study the relationships between a Hom-Lie superalgebra and its induced 3-ary-Hom-Lie superalgebra. We provide an overview of the theory and explore the structure properties such as ideals, center, derived series, solvability, nilpotency, central extensions, and the cohomology.
Throughout this paper, we will study Rota-Baxter operators and super O-operator of associative BiHom superalgebras, BiHom Lie superalgebras, BiHom pre-Lie superalgebras and BiHom-L-dendriform superalgebras. Then we give some properties of BiHom pre-Lie superalgebras constructed from associative BiHom superalgebras, BiHom Lie superalgebras and BiHom-L-dendriform superalgebras. As applications, we study the theory of cohomology groups of BiHom-pre-Lie superalgebras.
In this paper, we introduce a representation theory of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss the cases of adjoint representations. Furthermore, we develop cohomology theory of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss some applications to the study of deformations of regular Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras. Finally, we introduce derivations of multiplicative Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and study their properties.
Let L be a restricted Lie superalgebra with its enveloping algebra u(L) over a field F of characteristic p>2. A polynomial identity is called non-matrix if it is not satisfied by the algebra of 2\times 2 matrices over F. We characterize L when u(L) satisfies a non-matrix polynomial identity. In particular, we characterize L when u(L) is Lie solvable, Lie nilpotent, or Lie super-nilpotent.
We prove that the cohomology ring of a finite-dimensional restricted Lie superalgebra over a field of characteristic $p > 2$ is a finitely-generated algebra. Our proof makes essential use of the explicit projective resolution of the trivial module constructed by J. Peter May for any graded restricted Lie algebra. We then prove that the cohomological finite generation problem for finite supergroup schemes over fields of odd characteristic reduces to the existence of certain conjectured universal extension classes for the general linear supergroup $GL(m|n)$ that are similar to the universal exte…
We develop the cohomology theory of color Lie superalgebras due to Scheunert--Zhang in a framework of nonhomogeneous quadratic Koszul algebras. In this approach, the Chevalley--Eilenberg complex of a color Lie algebra becomes a standard Koszul complex for its universal enveloping algebra. As an application, we calculate cohomologies with trivial coefficients of 3-dimensional color Lie superalgebras.
We consider two families of finite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebras of Cartan type, denoted by HO and KO, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>3. Using the weight space decompositions and the principal gradings we first show that neither HO nor KO possesses a nondegenerate associative form. Then, by means of computing the superderivations from the Lie superalgebras in consideration into their dual modules, the second cohomology groups with coefficients in the trivial modules are proved to be vanishing.
The purpose of this paper is to develop a cohomology and deformation theories for generalized left-symmetric algebras.We introduce the notions of generalized left-symmetric cohomology and deformation. We also generalize a theorem of Dzhumadil'daev on connections between the right-symmetric cohomology and Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomology. As an application, we obtain a factorization theorem in left-symmetric superalgebras cohomology. Finally, we obtain all complex simple left-symmetric superalgebras of dimension 3 by the infinitesimal deformations of a given left-symmetric superalgebras.
Superderivations for the eight families of finite or infinite dimensional graded Lie superalgebras of Cartan-type over a field of characteristic $p>3$ are completely determined by a uniform approach: The infinite dimensional case is reduced to the finite dimensional case and the latter is further reduced to the restrictedness case, which proves to be far more manageable. In particular, the outer superderivation algebras of those Lie superalgebras are completely determined.
We describe the structure of the algebraic group of automorphisms of all simple finite dimensional Lie superalgebras. Using this and étale cohomology considerations, we list all different isomorphism classes of the corresponding twisted loop superalgebras.
We consider the super Jordan plane, a braided Hopf algebra introduced--to the best of our knowledge--in works of N. Andruskiewitsch, I. Angiono, I. Heckenberger, and its restricted version in odd characteristic introduced by the same authors. We show that their Drinfeld doubles give rise naturally to Hopf superalgebras justifying a posteriori the adjective super given in their work. These Hopf superalgebras are extensions of super commutative ones by the enveloping, respectively restricted enveloping, algebra of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$.
Over a field of characteristic p > 3, the first cohomology group of Lie superalgebra D(2,1;α) with coefficients in baby Verma modules is determined by calculating the outer superderivations of D(2,1;α).
In this paper, we introduce the relevant concepts of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras and construct three classes of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras. As a generalization of the notion of derivations for $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras, we discuss the derivations of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras. In addition, the theory of one parameter formal deformation of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras is developed by choosing a suitable cohomology.
In this paper, we introduce the representation theory of $δ$-Hom-Jordan Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss the cases of adjoint representations. Furthermore, we develop the cohomology theory of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss some applications to the study of deformations of regular $δ$-Hom-Jordan Lie conformal superalgebras. Finally, we introduce derivations of multiplicative $δ$-Hom-Jordan Lie conformal superalgebras and study their properties.
We classify the N = 1, 2, 3 superconformal Lie algebras of Schwimmer and Seiberg by means of differential non-abelian cohomology, and describe the general philosophy behind this new technique. The structure of the group (functor) of automorphisms of the corresponding Lie conformal superalgebra is a key ingredient of the proof.
In this dissertation, we investigate the cohomology theory of restricted Lie algebras. The representation theory of restricted Lie algebras is reviewed including a description of the restricted universal enveloping algebra. In the case of an abelian restricted Lie algebra, we construct an augmented complex of free modules over the enveloping algebra that is exact in dimensions less than p and hence define the cohomology theory of these algebras in dimension less than p. In the non-abelian case, we explicitly construct cochain spaces for any coefficient module in dimensions less than 3, and giv…
We initiate the representation theory of restricted Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>2. A superalgebra generalization of the celebrated Kac-Weisfeiler Conjecture is formulated, which exhibits a mixture of p-power and 2-power divisibilities of dimensions of modules. We establish the Conjecture for basic classical Lie superalgebras.
We give an interpretation of the Brauer group of a purely inseparable extension of exponent 1, in terms of restricted Lie-Rinehart cohomology. In particular, we define and study the category $p$-$\rm{LR}(A)$ of restricted Lie-Rinehart algebras over a commutative algebra $A$. We define cotriple cohomology groups $H_{p-LR}(L,M)$ for $L\in p$-$\rm{LR}(A)$ and $M$ a Beck $L$-module. We classify restricted Lie-Rinehart extensions. Thus, we obtain a classification theorem for regular extensions considered by Hoshschild.
In this paper, we give a construction of simple modules generalizing and including both highest weight and Whittaker modules for the Neveu-Schwarz algebra, in the spirit of the work of Mazorchuk and Zhao on simple Virasoro modules. We establish a 1-1 correspondence between simple restricted Neveu-Schwarz modules and simple modules of a family of finite dimensional solvable Lie superalgebras associated to the Neveu-Schwarz algebra. Moreover, for two of these superalgebras all simple modules are classified.
In this paper we investigate the relation between the multiplicities of split strongly abelian p-chief factors of finite-dimensional restricted Lie algebras and first degree restricted cohomology. As an application we obtain a characterization of solvable restricted Lie algebras in terms of the multiplicities of split strongly abelian p-chief factors. Moreover, we derive some results in the representation theory of restricted Lie algebras related to the principal block and the projective cover of the trivial irreducible module of a finite-dimensional restricted Lie algebra. In particular, we o…
We show that the restricted Lie algebra structure on Hochschild cohomology is invariant under stable equivalences of Morita type between self-injective algebras. Thereby we obtain a number of positive characteristic stable invariants, such as the $p$-toral rank of $\mathrm{HH}^1(A,A)$. We also prove a more general result concerning Iwanaga-Gorenstein algebras, using a more general notion of stable equivalences of Morita type. Several applications are given to commutative algebra and modular representation theory. These results are proven by first establishing the stable invariance of the $B_\i…
As is well-known, the dimension of the space spanned by the non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear forms (NISes) on any simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra or Lie superalgebra is equal to at most 1 if the characteristic of the algebraically closed ground field is not 2. We prove that in characteristic 2, the superdimension of the space spanned by NISes can be equal to 0, or 1, or $0|1$, or $1|1$; it is equal to $1|1$ if and only if the Lie superalgebra is a queerification (defined in arXiv:1407.1695) of a simple classically restricted Lie algebra with a NIS (for examples, mainly in char…
