Abstract

The paper concerns two versions of the notion of real forms of Lie superalgebras. One is the standard approach, where a real form of a complex Lie superalgebra is a real Lie superalgebra such that its complexification is the original complex Lie superalgebra. The second is related to considering AA-points of a Lie superalgebra over a commutative complex superalgebra AA equipped with superconjugation. It is not difficult to see that the first real form can be obtained as the set of fixed points of an antilinear involutive automorphism and the second is related to an automorphism ϕ\phi such that ϕ2\phi^{2} is identity on even part and negative identity on the odd part. The generalized notion of the real form is subsequently introduced also for complex algebraic supergroups.
