The classical Lie superalgebras of the series q (which are natural extensions of the simple (f, d)-algebras of Gell-Mann--Michel-Radicati [10]) are usually called" strange." One of the reasons is that in contrast with the basic classical series $1 (n I m),~[(nlm),=~(n [2m), the Lie superalgebras q (n) are not contragradient in the sense of [6]. And since it turned out that even the theory of representations of the basic classical series is far from banal, in investigating the characters of finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the classical Lie superalgebras, VG Kac did not consider either the series q or the corresponding simple series~ q (~ q (n)[3] is another notation for tho (f, d)-algebras in [10] or Q (n I) in [6]). Essential results on q (m) were found by A, N. Sergeev. In particular, he explicitly described the center of the universal enveloping algebra U (q (m))[11] and found a formula for the characters for irreducible submodules of the tensor algebra of the standard representation [4].In the present paper we show that the algebraic approach to the characters of the irreducible finite-dimensional representations going back to Bernshtein--Gel'fand-Gel'fand [2](and applied by Kac to the basic classical series [7]), leads to the goal after certain natural changes for the series~ also. Here (just as Kac did) we get a decisive answer for a certain" everywhere dense"(more precisely Zariski open) set in the set of highest weights. Following Kac [7], we call these weights typical highest weights. The problem of a natural. method of investigating the remaining (nontypical) representations remains open for now.
