In this paper, we give the representation and cohomology for a first-class $n$-Lie superalgebra and obtain a relation between extensions of a first-class $n$-Lie superalgebra $\\mathfrak{b}$ by an abelian one $\\mathfrak{a}$ and $Z^1(\\mathfrak{b}, \\mathfrak{a})_{\\bar{0}}$. We also introduce the notion of $T^*$-extensions of first-class $n$-Lie superalgebras and prove that every finite-dimensional nilpotent metric first-class $n$-Lie superalgebra $(\\g,< ,>_{\\g})$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not 2 is isometric to a suitable $T^*$-extension.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-04-27T07:00:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lie superalgebra", "cohomology", "finite-dimensional nilpotent metric first-class", "representation", "algebraically closed field" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1304.7335M" } } }
