Abstract

For a Lie algebroid LL and a Lie subalgebroid AA, i.e. a Lie pair (L,A)(L,A), we study the Atiyah class and the Todd class of the pullback dg (i.e. differential graded) Lie algebroid π!L\pi^! L of LL along the bundle projection π:A[1]M\pi:A[1] \to M of the shifted vector bundle A[1]A[1]. Applying the homological perturbation lemma, we provide a new construction of Sti\'{e}non--Vitagliano--Xu's contraction relating the cochain complex (Γ(π!L),Q)\big(\Gamma(\pi^! L),\mathit{Q}\big) of sections of π!L\pi^! L to the Chevalley--Eilenberg complex (Γ(ΛA(L/A)),dBott)(\Gamma(\Lambda^\bullet A^\vee\otimes(L/A)),d^{\mathrm{Bott}}) of the Bott representation. Using this contraction, we construct two isomorphisms: the first identifies the cohomology of the cochain complex (Γ((π!L)End(π!L)),Q)(\Gamma((\pi^! L)^\vee\otimes\mathrm{End}(\pi^! L)),\mathit{Q}) with the Chevalley--Eilenberg cohomology HCE(A,(L/A)End(L/A))H^\bullet_{\mathrm{CE}}(A,(L/A)^\vee\otimes\mathrm{End}(L/A)) arising from the Bott representation, while the second identifies the cohomologies H(Γ(Λ(π!L)),Q)H^\bullet(\Gamma(\Lambda(\pi^! L)^\vee),\mathit{Q}) and HCE(A,Λ(L/A))H^\bullet_{\mathrm{CE}}(A,\Lambda(L/A)^\vee). We prove that this pair of isomorphisms identifies the Atiyah class and the Todd class of the dg Lie algebroid π!L\pi^! L with the Atiyah class and the Todd class of the Lie pair (L,A)(L,A), respectively.
