Abstract: We provide a convenient formulation of the definition of Cartan graphs and Weyl groupoids introduced by Heckenberger and Schneider, and construct Cartan graphs for regular symmetrizable contragredient Lie superalgebras. For $mathfraksl(m|n)$, $mathfrakosp(2m+1|2n)$ and $mathfrakosp(2m|2n)$ we explicitly describe the Cartan graph in terms of partitions and determine the relations between the generators of their Weyl groupoids.

Review text

In the case of classical simple Lie superalgebras not all Borel subalgebras of containing a fixed Cartan subalgebra are conjugate to each other. In [\textit{I. Penkov} and \textit{V. Serganova}, Ann. Inst. Fourier 39, No. 4, 845--873 (1989; Zbl 0667.14023)] the so called odd reflections that act on the set of Borel subalgebras were introduced. These odd reflection generated a Weyl groupoid. Weyl groupoids can be constructed from (semi-)Cartan graphs, The first main result of the paper is a formulation of the general construction of Cartan graphs and Weyl groupoids from [\textit{I. Heckenberger} and \textit{H.-J. Schneider}, Hopf algebras and root systems. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society (AMS) (2020; Zbl 1473.16026)] in more convenient graphical language. The second main result is a description of the Cartan graphs and Weyl groupoids for the Lie superalgebras \(\mathfrak{sl}(m | n)\), \(\mathfrak{osp}(2m +1|2n)\) and \(\mathfrak{osp}(2m|2n)\).
