First Cohomology Space of the Orthosymplectic Lie Superalgebra \( \mathfrak{osp} \)(n|2) in the Lie Superalgebra of Superpseudodifferential Operators

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We study the first cohomology space associated with the embedding of the Lie orthosymplectic superalgebra \( \mathfrak{osp} \)(n|2) on the (1,n)-dimensional superspace ℝ1|n in the Lie superalgebra \( \mathcal{S}\Psi \mathcal{DO} \)(n) (for n ≥ 4) of superpseudodifferential operators with smooth coefficients. Following Ovsienko and Roger, we present explicit expressions for the basis cocycles. We propose a simple generalization of a result obtained by Basdouri [Alg. Represent. Theory, 16, 35–50 (2013)].
