Abstract

We classify deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie superalgebra $$ \mathcal{K} $$ (2) of contact vector fields on the (1, 2)-dimensional supercircle into the Lie superalgebra SΨD(S 1|2 ) of pseudodifferential operators on the supercircle S 1|2 . The proposed approach leads to the deformations of the central charge induced on $$ \mathcal{K} $$ (2) by the canonical central extension of SΨD(S 1|2 ).
