The underlying Lie algebra representation is realized on functions on the minimal orbit inside the Jordan superalgebra associated with $\\mathfrak{osp}(p,q|2n)$, so that our construction is in line with the orbit philosophy. Its annihilator is given by a Joseph-like ideal for $\\mathfrak{osp}(p,q|2n)$, and therefore the representation is a natural generalization of a minimal representations to the context of Lie superalgebras. We also construct a non-degenerate sesquilinear form for which the representation is skew-symmetric and which is the analogue of an $L^2$-inner product in the supercase, and calculate its Gelfand--Kirillov dimension.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-10-19T17:59:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "17B10", "17B60", "22E46", "58C50" ], "keywords": [ "minimal representation", "orthosymplectic lie superalgebra", "lie algebra representation", "orthosymplectic lie supergroup", "minimal orbit inside" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
