Is Whitehead lemma true for super Lie algebras?

130 Views Asked by At

Classical Whitehead lemma states that if $\mathfrak g$ is a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra and $M$ is a finite-dimensional $\mathfrak g$-module, then first cohomology group $H^1(\mathfrak g, M)$ (defined for example as cohomology of the Chevalley-Eilenberg complex) is trivial. I need to know if this is also true for super Lie algebras.

The Whitehead Lemmas no longer hold for simple Lie superalgebras.
