Abstract

The authors consider a family of finite-dimensional Lie superalgebras of O-type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 3. It is proved that the Lie superalgebras of O-type are simple and the spanning sets are determined. Then the spanning sets are employed to characterize the superderivation algebras of these Lie superalgebras. Finally, the associative forms are discussed and a comparison is made between these Lie superalgebras and other simple Lie superalgebras of Cartan type.
