Abstract: Let e be an arbitrary even nilpotent element in the general linear Lie superalgebra mathfrakglM|N and let mathcalWe be the associated finite W-superalgebra. Let Ym|n be the super Yangian associated to the Lie superalgebra mathfrakglm|n. A subalgebra of Ym|n, called the shifted super Yangian and denoted by Ym|n(sigma), is defined and studied. Moreover, an explicit isomorphism between mathcalWe and a quotient of Ym|n(sigma) is established.


A finite \(W\)-algebra is an associative algebra determined by a finite dimensional semisimple or reductive Lie algebra \(\mathfrak g\) and a nilpotent element \(e\) in \(\mathfrak g\). On the other hand, Yangians are important examples of quantum groups used to provide rational solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. The connection between Yangians and finite \(W\)-algebras was firstly noticed by Ragoucy and Sorba for type A Lie algebras with rectangular nilpotent elements. This observation is further generalized by Brundan and Kleshchev to an arbitrary nilpotent element in \({\mathfrak g}{\mathfrak l}_N\). Namely, the finite \(W\)-algebra associated to a nilpotent \(e\in{\mathfrak g}{\mathfrak l}_N\) is isomorphic to a quotient of some subalgebra of the Yangian (called the shifted Yangian) associated to \({\mathfrak g}{\mathfrak l}_n\), where \(n\) is the number of Jordan blocks of \(e\). After that, the connection between super Yangians \(Y_{m|n}\) and finite \(W\)-superalgebras associated to some special kinds of nilpotent elements in \({\mathfrak g}{\mathfrak l}_{M|N}\) has also been studied. In the present paper, the author solves the open problem for general nilpotent \(e\in {\mathfrak g}{\mathfrak l}_{M|N}\). A subalgebra of \(Y_{m|n}\), called the shifted super Yangian and denoted by \(Y_{m|n}(\sigma)\), is defined and studied by the parabolic presentation of \(Y_{m|n}\). Then an explicit isomorphism between the associated finite \(W\)-superalgebra \(\mathcal{W}_e\) and a quotient of \(Y_{m|n}(\sigma)\) is established.
