Hom-Lie superalgebras in characteristic 2

Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to develop the structure theory of Hom-Lie superalgebras in characteristic 2. We discuss their representations, semidirect product, $\alpha^k$-derivations and provide a classification in low dimension. We introduce another notion of restrictedness on Hom-Lie algebras in characteristic 2, different from one given by Guan and Chen. This definition is inspired by the process of queerification of restricted Lie algebras in characteristic 2. We also show that any restricted Hom-Lie algebra in characteristic 2 can be queerified to give rise to a Hom-Lie superalgebra. Moreover, we develop a cohomology theory of Hom-Lie superalgebras in characteristic 2, which provides a cohomology of ordinary Lie superalgebras. Furthermore, we establish a deformation theory of Hom-Lie superalgebras in characteristic 2 based on this cohomology.
