The Variety of Jordan Superalgebras of dimension four and even part of dimension two (2501.18067v1)

Abstract: We describe the variety of Jordan superalgebras of dimension $4$ whose even part is a Jordan algebra of dimension $2$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $0$. We prove that the variety has $25$ irreducible components, $24$ of them correspond to the Zariski closure of the $GL_2(\mathbb{F})\times GL_2(\mathbb{F})$-orbits of rigid superalgebras and the other one is the Zariski closure of an union of orbits of an infinite family of superalgebras, none of them being rigid. Furthermore, it is known that the question of the existence of a rigid Jordan algebra whose second cohomology group does not vanish is still an open problem. We solve this problem in the context of superalgebras, showing a four-dimensional rigid Jordan superalgebra whose second cohomology group does not vanish.
