For the Lie superalgebra $q(n+1)$ a description is given in terms of creation and annihilation operators, in such a way that the defining relations of $q(n+1)$ are determined by quadratic and triple supercommutation relations of these operators. Fock space representations $V_p$ of $q(n+1)$ are defined by means of these creation and annihilation operators. These new representations are introduced as quotient modules of some induced module of $q(n+1)$. The representations $V_p$ are not graded, but they possess a number of properties that are of importance for physical applications. For $p$ a positive integer, these representations $V_p$ are finite-dimensional, with a unique highest weight (of multiplicity 1). The Hermitian form that is consistent with the natural adjoint operation on $q(n+1)$ is shown to be positive definite on $V_p$. For $q(2)$ these representations are ``dispin''. For the general case of $q(n+1)$, many structural properties of $V_p$ are derived.
The Fock space of $m+p$ bosonic and $n+q$ fermionic quantum oscillators forms a unitarizable module of the general linear superalgebra $gl_{m+p|n+q}$. Its tensor powers decompose into direct sums of infinite dimensional irreducible highest weight $gl_{m+p|n+q}$-modules. We obtain an explicit decomposition of any tensor power of this Fock space into irreducibles, and develop a character formula for the irreducible $gl_{m+p|n+q}$-modules arising in this way.
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.
In this paper we use the Etingof-Kazhdan quantization of Lie bi-superalgebras to investigate some interesting questions related to Drinfeld-Jimbo type superalgebra associated to a Lie superalgebra of classical type. It has been shown that the D-J type superalgebra associated to a Lie superalgebra of type A-G, with the distinguished Cartan matrix, is isomorphic to the E-K quantization of the Lie superalgebra. The first main result in the present paper is to extend this to arbitrary Cartan matrices. This paper also contains two other main results: 1) a theorem stating that all highest weight mod…
Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 0}+\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 1}$ be a basic Lie superalgebra over $\mathbb{C}$, and $e$ a minimal nilpotent element in $\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 0}$. Set $W_χ'$ to be the refined $W$-superalgebra associated with the pair $(\mathfrak{g},e)$, which is called a minimal $W$-superalgebra. In this paper we present a set of explicit generators of minimal $W$-superalgebras and the commutators between them. In virtue of this, we show that over an algebraically closed field $\mathds{k}$ of characteristic $p\gg0$, the lower bounds of dimensions in the modular representations of ba…
A description of the quantum superalgebra U_q[sl(n+1|m)] via creation and annihilation generators (CAGs) is given. A statement that the Fock representations of the CAGs provide microscopic realizations of exclusion statistics is formulated.
We construct a new family of irreducible modules over any basic classical affine Kac-Moody Lie superalgebra which are induced from modules over the Heisenberg subalgebra. We also obtain irreducible deformations of these modules for the quantum affine superalgebra of type A.
We discuss Cauchy type decompositions of crystal graphs for general linear Lie superalgebras. More precisely, we consider bicrystal graph structures on various sets of matrices of non-negative integers, and obtain their decompositions with explicit combinatorial isomorphisms.
Hom-Lie superalgebras, which can be considered as a deformation of Lie superalgebras, are $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded generalization of Hom-Lie algebras. In this paper, we prove that there is only the trivial Hom-Lie superalgebra structure over a finite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebra.
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.
We introduce the notion of extended affine Lie superalgebras and investigate the properties of their root systems. Extended affine Lie algebras, invariant affine reflection algebras, finite dimensional basic classical simple Lie superalgebras and affine Lie superalgebras are examples of extended affine Lie superalgebras.
As an alternative to Chevalley generators, we introduce Jacobson generators for the quantum superalgebra $U_q[sl(n+1|m)]$. The expressions of all Cartan-Weyl elements of $U_q[sl(n+1|m)]$ in terms of these Jacobson generators become very simple. We determine and prove certain triple relations between the Jacobson generators, necessary for a complete set of supercommutation relations between the Cartan-Weyl elements. Fock representations are defined, and a substantial part of this paper is devoted to the computation of the action of Jacobson generators on basis vectors of these Fock spaces. It i…
We define root graded Lie superalgebras and study their connection with centerless cores of extended affine Lie superalgebras; our definition generalizes the known notions of root graded Lie superalgebras.
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.
Motivated by the theory of unitary representations of finite dimensional Lie supergroups, we describe those Lie superalgebras which have a faithful finite dimensional unitary representation. We call these Lie superalgebras unitary. This is achieved by describing the classification of real finite dimensional compact simple Lie superalgebras, and analyzing, in a rather elementary and direct way, the decomposition of reductive Lie superalgebras ($\g$ is a semisimple $\g_{\bar 0}$-module) over fields of characteristic zero into ideals.
We study quadratic Lie conformal superalgebras associated with No\-vikov superalgebras. For every Novikov superalgebra $(V,\circ)$, we construct an enveloping differential Poisson superalgebra $U(V)$ with a derivation $d$ such that $u\circ v = ud(v)$ and $\{u,v\} = u\circ v - (-1)^{|u||v|} v\circ u$ for $u,v\in V$. The latter means that the commutator Gelfand--Dorfman superalgebra of $V$ is special. Next, we prove that every quadratic Lie conformal superalgebra constructed on a finite-dimensional special Gel'fand--Dorfman superalgebra has a finite faithful conformal representation. This statem…
Based on the loop-algebraic presentation of 2-toroidal Lie superalgebras, free field representation of toroidal Lie superalgebras of type $A(m, n)$ is constructed using both vertex operators and bosonic fields.
In this work, we study direct limits of finite dimensional basic classical simple Lie superalgebras and obtain the conjugacy classes of Cartan subalgebras under the group of automorphisms.
We classify open maximal subalgebras of all infinite-dimensional linearly compact simple Lie superalgebras. This is applied to the classification of infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras of vector fields, acting transitively and primitively in a formal neighborhood of a point of a finite-dimensional supermanifold.
Drinfeld Yangian of a queer Lie superalgebra is defined as the quantization of a Lie bisuperelgebra of twisted polynomial currents. An analogue of the new system of generators of Drinfeld is being constructed. It is proved for the partial case Lie superalgebra $sq_1$ that this so defined Yangian and the Yangian, introduced earlier by M. Nazarov using the Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtadzhjan approach, are isomorphic.
Fix a positive integer number $r$. A class of $r$-dim Lie conformal superalgebras named $r$-dim $i$-linear Lie conformal superalgebras are studied for $1\leq i \leq r$. We present an equivalent characterization of this class of Lie conformal superalgebras in $r$ dimension. Moreover, by this equivalent characterization, several constructions and examples are given.
A loop-algebraic presentation is given for toroidal Lie superalgebras of classical types. Based on the loop superalgebra presentation free field realizations of toroidal Lie superalgebras are constructed for types $A(m,n)$, $B(m,n)$, C(n) and $D(m,n)$.
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.
In this paper, we give defining relations of the affine Lie superalgebras an and defining relations of a super-version of the Drinfeld[D]-Jimbo[J] affine quantized universal enveloping algebras. As a result, we can exactly define the affine quantized universal enveloping superalgebras with generators and relations. Moreover we give a Drinfeld's realizations of $U_h({\hat {sl}}(m|n)^{(1)})$.
In [5], Hochschild established a 6-term exact sequence for the cohomology of restricted Lie algebras. We generalize this result to restricted Lie superalgebras.
A 2-toroidal Lie superalgebra is constructed using bosonic fields and a ghost field. The superalgebra contains $osp(1|2n)^{(1)}$ as a distinguished subalgebra and behaves similarly to the toroidal Lie superalgebra of type $B(0, n)$. Furthermore this algebra is a central extension of the algebra $osp(1|2n)\otimes \mathbb C[s, s^{-1}, t,t^{-1}]$.
We propose a generalization of Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) that has internal degrees of freedom described by an affine Lie superalgebra. We give a general formulation of SLE corresponding to representation theory of an affine Lie superalgebra whose underlying finite dimensional Lie superalgebra is basic classical type, and write down stochastic differential equations on internal degrees of freedom in case that the corresponding affine Lie superalgebra is $\widehat{\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)}$. We also demonstrate computation of local martingales associated with the solution from a representation …
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.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras. In this paper, we provide different ways for constructing super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and obtain some infinite-dimensional Hom-Lie superalgebras from affinization of super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Also, we give a general construction of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras from Hom-Lie superalgebras and establish equivalence of quadratic Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Finally, we characterize one-dimensional cent…
In this paper we investigate some important basic properties of simple Hom-Lie superalgebras and show that a Hom-Lie superalgebra does not have any left or right nontrivial ideals. Moreover, we classify invariant bilinear forms on a given simple Hom-Lie superalgebra. Then we study the Killing forms on a Hom-Lie algebra which are examples of the invariant bilinear forms. Making use of the Killing forms, we find conditions for a Hom-Lie superalgebra to be classical. Furthermore, we check the conditions in which the Killing form of a Hom-Lie superalgebra is non-degenerate.
The Yang-Mills equations are formulated in the form of generalized Maurer-Cartan equations, such that the corresponding algebraic operations are shown to satisfy the defining relations of homotopy Lie superalgebra.
