Lie superalgebras, Clifford algebras, induced modules and nilpotent orbits

Abstract: Let

F R A K g

be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. To every nilpotent orbit

c a l O

in

F R A K g_{0}

we associate a Clifford algebra over the field of rational functions on

c a l O

. We find the rank,

k (c a l O)

of the bilinear form defining this Clifford algebra, and deduce a lower bound on the multiplicity of a

U (F R A K g)

-module with

c a l O

or an orbital subvariety of

c a l O

as associated variety. In some cases we obtain modules where the lower bound on multiplicity is attained using parabolic induction. The invariant

k (c a l O)

is in many cases, equal to the odd dimension of the orbit

G c d o t c a l O

where

G

is a Lie supergroup with Lie superalgebra

m a t h f r a k g .
