Abstract: Let $V$ be a complex vector space with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form and $mathbbS$ an irreducible module over the Clifford algebra $Cl(V)$ determined by this form. A supertranslation algebra is a $mathbbZ$-graded Lie superalgebra $mathfrakm=mathfrak{m}_{-2}oplusmathfrak{m}_{-1}$, where $mathfrak{m}_{-2}=V$ and $mathfrak{m}_{-1}=mathbbSopluscdotsoplusmathbbS$ is the direct sum of an arbitrary number $Ngeq1$ of copies of $mathbbS$, whose bracket $[cdot,cdot]{|}_{mathfrak{m}_{-1}otimesmathfrak{m}_{-1}}:mathfrak{m}_{-1}otimesmathfrak{m}_{-1}ightarrowmathfrak{m}_{-2}$ is symmetric, $mathfrakso(V)$-equivariant and non-degenerate (that is the condition "$sinmathfrak{m}_{-1},[s,mathfrak{m}_{-1}]=0$" implies $s=0$). We consider the maximal transitive prolongations in the sense of Tanaka of supertranslation algebras. We prove that they are finite-dimensional for $dimVgeq3$ and classify them in terms of super-Poincar'e algebras and appropriate $mathbbZ$-gradings of simple Lie superalgebras.
