Basic quasi-reductive root data and supergroups
Abstract
We investigate pairs , where is a reductive algebraic group and a purely-odd -superscheme, asking when a pair corresponds to a quasi-reductive algebraic supergroup , that is, is isomorphic to , and the quotient is -equivariantly isomorphic to . We prove that, if satisfies certain conditions (basic quasi-reductive root data), then the question has a positive answer given by an existence and uniqueness theorem. The corresponding supergroups are said to be basic quasi-reductive, which can be classified, up to isogeny. We then decide the structure of connected quasi-reductive algebraic supergroups provided that: (i) the root system does not contain ; (ii) admits a non-degenerate even symmetric bilinear form. (iii) all odd reflections are invertible. Remarkably, those supergroups are exactly basic quasi-reductive supergroups of monodromy type.
