AbstractSupergeometry is an extension of geometry to include dimensions with anti-commutingcoordinates as motivated by high energy physics. In this talk, l wil give an introduction to themathematical treatment of supergeometry: supercommutative rings, supermanifolds, mapsbetween supermanifolds, their tangent bundles and split models.l will also introduce superRiemann surfaces which are holomorp...
AbstractA bounded linear operator A is said to be quadratic if there is a polynomial p of degree 2 suchthat p(A)=0. Square zero operators, involutions, and idempotents are all typical quadraticoperators. We will give characterizations of matrices could be expressed as commutators of twosquare zero matrices, and explain some related results about limits of commutators of two squarezero operators...
