On Zinbiel and Tortkara superalgebras

In this paper, we study Zinbiel superalgebras and special Tortkara superalgebras, highlighting key differences between the super and the non-super setting. We present examples of Zinbiel superalgebras with Rota-Baxter operators and construct a basis for free Zinbiel superalgebras. Moreover, we establish a superalgebraic analogue of the Lie criterion for Zinbiel superalgebras. In contrast to the classical case, some homomorphic images of special Tortkara superalgebras on two generators are exceptional. Finally, we present a classification of all Tortkara superalgebras of dimensions 2 and 3.
