An illustration of formal moduli problems with differential graded Lie algebras

Algebraic Geometry 2025-06-17 v1

Abstract

This article provides an exposition to the topic of formal moduli problems, emphasizing its connections with differential graded Lie algebras, and mainly following from Jacob Lurie's DAG X: Formal Moduli Problems. As such, this paper should not be viewed as a presentation of original work, but rather a concise introduction to the subject in the form of a set of organized notes. I hoped to make this paper feel welcoming and insightful for the non-expert enjoyer of derived algebraic geometry, like myself. Enjoy!
