Abstract

We classify good ℤ-gradings of basic Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. Good ℤ-gradings are used in quantum Hamiltonian reduction for affine Lie superalgebras, where they play a role in the construction of super W-algebras. We also describe the centralizer of a nilpotent even element and of an sl2-triple in gl(m{pipe}2n) and osp(m{pipe}2n).
