It is well known that if the ground field K has characteristic zero and G is a connected algebraic group, defined over K, then the Lie algebra Lie(Gâ²) of the commutant Gâ² of G coincides with the commutant Lie(G)â² of Lie(G). We show that this result is no longer true in the category of algebraic supergroups. We also construct a reductive supergroup H=XâG, where X and G are connected, reduced and abelian supergroups, such that Xuâ 1 and (Hev)u is non-trivial connected (super)group. Quasi-reductive supergroups have been introduced in [10]. We prove that a supergroup H is quasi-reductive if and only if the largest even (super)subgroup of the solvable radical R(H) is a torus, HË=H/R(H) contains a normal supersubgroup U, which is quasi-isomorphic to a direct product of normal supersubgroups Ui, and HË/U is a triangulizable supergroup with odd unipotent radical. Moreover, for every i, Lie(Ui)=UiâSym(ni) are such that either ni=0 and Ui is a classical simple Lie superalgebra, or ni=1 and Ui is a simple Lie algebra.
