Abstract
The universal central extensions and their extension kernels of the smatrix Lie superalgebra 𝔰𝔩(m, n, 𝒜), the Steinberg Lie superalgebra 𝔰𝔩(m, n, 𝒜) in category SLeib of Leibniz superalgebras are determined under a weak assumption (compared with Mikhalev and Pinchuk, Citation2000) using the first Hochschild homology and the first cyclic homology group.
