Multipliers, covers, and stem extensions for Lie superalgebras

Abstract

Suppose that the underlying field is of characteristic different from 2 and 3. We first prove that the so-called stem deformations of a free presentation of a finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra L exhaust all the maximal stem extensions of L; up to equivalence of extensions. Then we prove that multipliers and covers always exist for a Lie superalgebra and they are unique up to superalgebra isomorphisms. Finally, we describe the multipliers, covers, and maximal stem extensions of Heisenberg superalgebras and model filiform Lie superalgebras.

Keywords
