Denominator identities for finite-dimensional Lie superalgebras and Howe duality for compact dual pairs
We provide formulas for the denominator and superdenominator of a basic
classical type Lie superalgebra for any set of positive roots. We establish a
connection between certain sets of positive roots and the theory of reductive
dual pairs of real Lie groups. As an application of our formulas, we recover
the Theta correspondence for compact dual pairs. Along the way we give an
explicit description of the real forms of basic classical type Lie
superalgebras.Comment: Latex, 75 pages. Minor corrections. Final version, to appear in the

Real forms of the complex twisted N=2 supersymmetric Toda chain hierarchy in real N=1 and twisted N=2 superspaces
Three nonequivalent real forms of the complex twisted N=2 supersymmetric Toda
chain hierarchy (solv-int/9907021) in real N=1 superspace are presented. It is
demonstrated that they possess a global twisted N=2 supersymmetry. We discuss a
new superfield basis in which the supersymmetry transformations are local.
Furthermore, a representation of this hierarchy is given in terms of two
twisted chiral N=2 superfields. The relations to the s-Toda hierarchy by H.
Aratyn, E. Nissimov and S. Pacheva (solv-int/9801021) as well as to the
modified and derivative NLS hierarchies are established
Irreducible holonomy algebras of Riemannian supermanifolds
Possible irreducible holonomy algebras \g\subset\osp(p,q|2m) of Riemannian
supermanifolds under the assumption that \g is a direct sum of simple Lie
superalgebras of classical type and possibly of a one-dimensional center are
classified. This generalizes the classical result of Marcel Berger about the
classification of irreducible holonomy algebras of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.Comment: 27 pages, the final versio
