Abstract

We study a Lie algebra of formal vector fields WnW_n with its application to the perturbative deformed holomorphic symplectic structure in the A-model, and a Calabi-Yau manifold with boundaries in the B-model. We show that equivalent classes of deformations are describing by a Hochschild cohomology theory of the DG-algebra A=(A,Q){\mathfrak A} = (A, Q), Q=ˉ+deformQ =\bar{\partial}+\partial_{\rm deform}, which is defined to be the cohomology of (1)nQ+dHoch(-1)^n Q +d_{\rm Hoch}. Here ˉ\bar{\partial} is the initial non-deformed BRST operator while deform\partial_{\rm deform} is the deformed part whose algebra is a Lie algebra of linear vector fields gln{\rm gl}_n. We show that equivalent classes of deformations are described by a Hochschild cohomology of A{\mathfrak A}, an important geometric invariant of the (anti)holomorphic structure on XX. We discuss the identification of the harmonic structure (HT(X);HΩ(X))(HT^\bullet(X); H\Omega_\bullet(X)) of affine space XX and the group ExtX2n(\cO,\cO){\rm Ext}_{X^{2}}^n({\cO}_{\triangle}, {\cO}_{\triangle}) (the HKR isomorphism), and bulk-boundary deformation pairing.
