Abstract

We consider the antibracket superalgebra realized on the space of smooth functions on ℝ1 with values in the Grassmann algebra with one generator ξ and consisting of elements of the form ξf 0 (x) + f 1 (x) with compactly supported f 0 . Any basis of the second cohomology space with coefficients in the adjoint representation of this superalgebra consists of three odd and infinitely many even elements. We describe a large class of deformations of this superalgebra with Grassmann-valued deformation parameters. In particular, we find all deformations of this superalgebra that have exactly three odd parameters.
