Theses and Dissertations
The goal of this dissertation is to explore representations of $\mathfrak{gl}_{\infty|\infty}$ and associated Clifford superalgebras. The machinery utilized is motivated by developing an alternate superalgebra analogue to the Lie algebra theory developed by Kac. In an effort to establish a natural mathematical analogue, we construct a theory distinct from the super analogue developed by Kac and van de Leur. We first construct an irreducible representation of a Lie superalgebra on an infinite-dimensional wedge space that permits the presence of infinitely many odd parity vectors. We then develop a new Clifford superalgebra, whose structure is also examined. From here, we extend …
