The volume is the outcome of the conference "Lie superalgebras," which was held at the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica, Rome, in 2012. The conference gathered virtually all the main specialists in the subject, and the talks held provided comprehensive insights into the newest trends in research on Lie superalgebras (and related topics like vertex algebras, representation theory and supergeometry). The book includes both extended abstracts of the conference papers and new original works related to the theme of the conference.
