1. Lie superalgebras
-
Vladimir K. Dobrev
Abstract
Supersymmetry was discovered independently by three groups of researchers: Goldman and Lichtman [205], Volkov and Akulov [380], Wess and Zumino [382]. Other important early contributions were made in [178, 340, 218, 100, 192, 66, 163, 383, 315, 384, 306, 333, 109, 170, 248, 343, 237, 359, 77, 164, 93, 284, 396, 45, 47]. This introductory chapter contains standard material on Lie superalgebras based mainly on the papers of Kac [241, 243] (see also Cornwell [86]).
