3-Lie Superalgebras Induced by Lie Superalgebras

We show that given a Lie superalgebra and an element of its dual space, one can construct the 3-Lie superalgebra. We apply this approach to Lie superalgebra of ( m , n ) -block matrices taking a supertrace of a matrix as the element of dual space. Then we also apply this approach to commutative superalgebra and the Lie superalgebra of its derivations to construct 3-Lie superalgebra. The graded Lie brackets are constructed by means of a derivation and involution of commutative superalgebra, and we use them to construct 3-Lie superalgebras.
