Abstract

We study ℤ2-graded identities of Lie superalgebras of the type b(t), t ≥ 2, over a field of characteristic zero. Our main result is that the n-th codimension is strictly less than \((\dim b(t))^n\) asymptotically. As a consequence we obtain an upper bound for ordinary (non-graded) PI-exponent for each simple Lie superalgebra b(t), t ≥ 3.
