Abstract

It is well known that the category of real Lie supergroups is equivalent to the category of the so-called (real) Harish-Chandra pairs. That means that a Lie supergroup depends only on the underlying Lie group and its Lie superalgebra with certain compatibility conditions. More precisely, the structure sheaf of a Lie supergroup and the supergroup morphisms can be explicitly described in terms of the corresponding Lie superalgebra. In this paper, we give a proof of this result in the complex-analytic case. Furthermore, if (G,OG)(G,\mathcal{O}_G) is a complex Lie supergroup and HGH\subset G is a closed Lie subgroup, i.e. it is a Lie subsupergroup of (G,OG)(G,\mathcal{O}_G) and its odd dimension is zero, we show that the corresponding homogeneous supermanifold (G/H,OG/H)(G/H,\mathcal{O}_{G/H}) is split. In particular, any complex Lie supergroup is a split supermanifold. It is well known that a complex homogeneous supermanifold may be non-split. We find here necessary and sufficient conditions for a complex homogeneous supermanifold to be split.
