Integration on Lie supergroups: a Hopf superalgebra approach (Q2572058): Difference between revisions

The authors continue their work from [J. Math. Phys. 42, 3871--3897 (2001; Zbl 1032.17054)] on integration on Lie supergroups. A Lie supergroup is defined by its Hopf superalgebra \(\mathcal A\) of regular functions. \(\mathcal A\) is a certain Hopf sub-Hopf-superalgebra of the finite dual \(U(g)^o\) of the enveloping algebra of \(g\), where \(g=g_{\overline{0}}\oplus g_{\overline{1}}\) is a finite dimensional Lie superalgebra. Let \(\text{ad}'\) be the representation of \(g_{\overline{0}}\) in \(g_{\overline{1}}\) given by the adjoint representation of \(g\). The main result says that if \(g_{\overline{0}}\) is reductive and \(\text{ad}'(Z)\) is diagonalizable for all central elements \(Z\) of \(g_{\overline{0}}\), then \(\mathcal A\) is dense in \(U(g)^*\), and there exists a non-zero left integral on \(\mathcal A\), which is unique up to scalar multiples. In particualr the result can be applied to classical simple Lie superalgebras.
