Abstract

This article classifies the real forms of Lie Superalgebra by Vogan diagrams, developing Borel and de Seibenthal theorem of semisimple Lie algebras for Lie superalgebras. A Vogan diagram is a Dynkin diagram of triplet (gC,h0ˉ,+)(\mathfrak{g}_{C},\mathfrak{h_{\bar{0}}},\triangle^{+}), where gC\mathfrak{g}_{C} is a real Lie superalgebra, h0ˉ\mathfrak{h_{\bar{0}}} cartan subalgebra, +\triangle^{+} positive root system. Although the classification of real forms of contragradient Lie superalgebras is already done. But our method is a quicker one to classify.
