Abstract

An automorphism on a complex supermanifold M\mathcal M is called unipotent if it reduces to the identity on the associated graded supermanifold gr(M)gr(\mathcal M). These automorphisms are close to be complementary to those responsible for homogeneity of a supermanifold. In analogy, their study yields results on the classification of supermanifolds. Unipotent automorphisms are induced by even global degree increasing vector fields XVM,0ˉ(2)X\in \mathcal V_{\mathcal M,\bar 0}^{(2)}. Plenitude of unipotent automorphisms is understood as follows: the presheaf of common kernels of the operators [X,][X,\cdot] for XVM,0ˉ(2)X\in \mathcal V_{\mathcal M,\bar 0}^{(2)}, on superderivations vanishes up to errors of a fixed degree tt and higher. The isomorphy class of such strictly tt-nildominated supermanifolds is determined up to errors of degree tt and higher by VM,0ˉ(2)\mathcal V_{\mathcal M,\bar 0}^{(2)} and gr(M)gr(\mathcal M). An example shows that a strictly tt-nildominated supermanifold can be non-split, deformed already in degrees lower than tt.
