Quantum homogeneous supervector bundles arising from the quantum general linear supergoup are studied. The space of holomorphic sections is promoted to a left exact covariant functor from a category of modules over a quantum parabolic sub-supergroup to the category of locally finite modules of the quantum general linear supergroup. The right derived functors of this functor provides a form of Dolbeault cohomology for quantum homogeneous supervector bundles. We explicitly compute the cohomology groups, which are given in terms of well understood modules over the quantized universal enveloping algebra of the general linear superalgebra.
We investigate a new cohomology of Lie superalgebras, which may be compared to a de Rham cohomology of Lie supergroups involving both differential and integral forms. It is defined by a BRST complex of Lie superalgebra modules, which is formulated in terms of a Weyl superalgebra and incorporates inequivalent representations of the bosonic Weyl subalgebra. The new cohomology includes the standard Lie superalgebra cohomology as a special case. Examples of new cohomology groups are computed.
We investigate the second cohomology space of the Lie superalgebra $\mathcal{K}(2)$ with coefficients in the superspace of weighted densities on the (1,2)-dimentional real superspace. We explicitly give cocycles spanning this cohomology space.
We explicitly compute the first and second cohomology groups of the classical Lie superalgebras $sl_{m|n}$ and $osp_{2|2n}$ with coefficients in the finite dimensional irreducible modules and the Kac modules. We also show that the second cohomology groups of these Lie superalgebras with coefficients in the respective universal enveloping algebras (under the adjoint action) vanish. The latter result in particular implies that the universal enveloping algebras $U(sl_{m|n})$ and $U(osp_{2|2n})$ do not admit any non-trivial formal deformations of Gerstenhaber type.
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.
The notion of an anti-commutative (resp. commutative) rigid superalgebra is a natural generalisation of the notion of a Lie (resp. Jordan) superalgebra. Intuitively rigidity means that small deformations of the product under the structural group produce an isomorphic algebra. In this paper we classify all linearly compact simple anti-commutative (resp. commutative) rigid superalgebras. Beyond Lie (resp. Jordan) superalgebras the complete list includes four series and twenty two exceptional superalgebras (resp. ten exceptional superalgebras).
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.
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.
The purpose of this paper is to study Virasoro extensions of the q-deformed Witt Hom-Lie superalgebra. Moreover, we provide the cohomology and deformations of the Ramond Hom-superalgebra and special Ramond Hom-superalgebra.
We study the cohomology of Lie superalgebras for the full complex of forms: superforms, pseudoforms and integral forms. We use the technique of spectral sequences to abstractly compute the Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomology. We first focus on the superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(2|2)$ and show that there exist non-empty cohomology spaces among pseudoforms related to sub-superalgebras. We then extend some classical theorems by Koszul, as to include pseudoforms and integral forms. Further, we conjecture that the algebraic Poincaré duality extends to Lie superalgebras, as long as all the complexes of for…
The cohomology groups of Lie superalgebras and, more generally, of color Lie algebras, are introduced and investigated. The main emphasis is on the case where the module of coefficients is non-trivial. Two general propositions are proved, which help to calculate the cohomology groups. Several examples are included to show the peculiarities of the super case. For L = sl(1|2), the cohomology groups H^1(L,V) and H^2(L,V), with V a finite-dimensional simple graded L-module, are determined, and the result is used to show that H^2(L,U(L)) (with U(L) the enveloping algebra of L) is trivial. This impl…
In [5], Hochschild established a 6-term exact sequence for the cohomology of restricted Lie algebras. We generalize this result to restricted Lie superalgebras.
In a paper by Su and Zhao, the Lie algebra $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ of Weyl type was defined and studied, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of arbitrary characteristic, and $F[D]$ is the polynomial algebra of a commutative derivation subalgebra $D$ of $A$. The 2-cocycles of a class of $A[D]$ were determined by Su. In the present paper, we determine the 2-cocycles of a class of Lie superalgebras of Weyl type over a field $F$ of characteristic 0.
This paper is to study vertex operator superalgebras which are strongly generated by their weight-$2$ and weight-$\frac{3}{2}$ homogeneous subspaces. Among the main results, it is proved that if such a vertex operator superalgebra $V$ is simple, then $V_{(2)}$ has a canonical commutative associative algebra structure equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric associative bilinear form and $V_{(\frac{3}{2})}$ is naturally a $V_{(2)}$-module equipped with a $V_{(2)}$-valued symmetric bilinear form and a non-degenerate ($\mathbb{C}$-valued) symmetric bilinear form, satisfying a set of conditions. O…
This paper introduces a chain model for the Deligne-Mumford operad formed by homotopically trivializing the circle in a chain model for the framed little disks. We then show that under degeneration of the Hochschild to cyclic cohomology spectral sequence, a known action of the framed little disks on Hochschild cochains lifts to an action of this new chain model. We thus establish homotopy hyper-commutative algebra structures on both Hochschild and cyclic cochain complexes, and we interpret the gravity brackets on cyclic cohomology as obstructions to degeneration of this spectral sequence. Our …
In this work, the cohomology theory for partial actions of co-commutative Hopf algebras over commutative algebras is formulated. This theory generalizes the cohomology theory for Hopf algebras introduced by Sweedler and the cohomology theory for partial group actions, introduced by Dokuchaev and Khrypchenko. Some nontrivial examples, not coming from groups are constructed. Given a partial action of a co-commutative Hopf algebra $H$ over a commutative algebra $A$, we prove that there exists a new Hopf algebra $\widetilde{A}$, over a commutative ring $E(A)$, upon which $H$ still acts partially a…
REVISED VERSION: We have re-organized the paper, and included some new results. Most important, we prove that the (truncated) Weil complexes compute the cyclic cohomology of the Hopf algebra (see the new Theorem 7.3). We also include a short discussion on the uni-modulare case, and the computation for $H= U_q(sl_2)$. THE OLD ABSTRACT: We give a construction of Connes-Moscovici's cyclic cohomology for any Hopf algebra equipped with a twisted antipode. Furthermore, we introduce a non-commutative Weil complex, which connects the work of Gelfand and Smirnov with cyclic cohomology. We show how the …
We study the Hochschild cohomology and the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the algebraic non-commutative torus/quantum torus orbifolds resulting by the action of finite subgroups of $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$. We also examine the Poisson structures and compute the Poisson cohomology.
The cohomology groups of line bundles over complex tori (or abelian varieties) are classically studied invariants of these spaces. In this article, we compute the cohomology groups of line bundles over various holomorphic, non-commutative deformations of complex tori. Our analysis interpolates between two extreme cases. The first case is a calculation of the space of (cohomological) theta functions for line bundles over constant, commutative deformations. The second case is a calculation of the cohomologies of non-commutative deformations of degree-zero line bundles.
We generalize linear superalgebra to higher gradings and commutation factors, given by arbitrary abelian groups and bicharacters. Our central tool is an extension, to monoidal categories of modules, of the Nekludova-Scheunert faithful functor between the categories of graded-commutative and supercommutative algebras. As a result we generalize (super-)trace, determinant and Berezinian to graded matrices over graded-commutative algebras. For instance, on homogeneous quaternionic matrices, we obtain a lift of the Dieudonné determinant to the skew-field of quaternions.
