We develop a homotopical variant of the classic notion of an algebraic theory as a tool for producing deformations of homotopy theories. From this, we extract a framework for constructing and reasoning with obstruction theories and spectral…
In this preprint the notion of deformation quantization of endomorphism bundles over symplectic manifolds is defined and developed, including index theory.
We show that the deformation theory of a perfect complex and that of its determinant are related by the trace map, in a general setting of sheaves on a site. The key technical step, in passing from the setting of modules over a ring where…
We point out that the arguments of Zamolodchikov and others on the $T\overline T$ and similar deformations of two-dimensional field theories may be extended to the more general non-Lorentz invariant case, for example non-relativistic and…
This article is a survey of results involving conformal deformation of Riemannian metrics and fully nonlinear equations.
The integrability condition called shape invariance is shown to have an underlying algebraic structure and the associated Lie algebras are identified. These shape-invariance algebras transform the parameters of the potentials such as…
We develop an invariant deformation theory, in a form accessible to practice, for affine schemes $W$ equipped with an action of a reductive algebraic group $G$. Given the defining equations of a $G$-invariant subscheme $X \subset W$, we…
We embed the geometries of the generalized $\lambda$-deformations into the framework of the Double Field Theory.
We prove in a very general framework several versions of the classical Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt Theorem, which extend results from [BeGi, BrGa, CS, HvOZ, WW]. Applications and examples are discussed in the last part of the paper.
We discuss some aspects of the deformed W-algebras W_{q,t}[g]. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the Kac determinant, and discuss the center when t^2 is a primitive k-th root of unity. The relation of the structure of…
This paper is devoted to the study of some connections between coadjoint orbits in infinite dimensional Lie algebras, isospectral deformations and linearization of dynamical systems. We explain how results from deformation theory,…
We apply the notion of 2-extensions of algebras to the deformation theory of algebras. After standard results on butterflies between 2-extensions, we use this (2, 0)-category to give three perspectives on the deformation theory of algebras.…
We define and study the cohomology theories associated to A-infinity algebras and cyclic A-infinity algebras equipped with an involution, generalising dihedral cohomology to the A-infinity context. Such algebras arise, for example, as…
In the recent development in a various disciplines of physics, it is noted the need for including the deformed versions of the exponential functions. In this paper, we consider the deformations which have two purposes: to have them like…
We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…
In this article, we introduce equivariant formal deformation theory of Lie triple systems. We introduce an equivariant deformation cohomology of Lie triple systems and using this we study the equivariant formal deformation theory of Lie…
We prove the weight part of Serre's conjecture in generic situations for forms of $U(3)$ which are compact at infinity and split at places dividing $p$ as conjectured by Herzig. We also prove automorphy lifting theorems in dimension three.…
Introducing Nijenhuis forms on Lie-infinity algebras gives a general frame to understand deformations of the latter. We give here a Nijenhuis interpretation of a deformation of an arbitrary Lie algebroid into a Lie-infinity algebra. Then we…
The deformation theory of Lie-Yamaguti algebras is developed by choosing a suitable cohomology. The relationship between the deformation and the obstruction of Lie-Yamaguti algebras is obtained.
The notion of a derived A-infinity algebra, considered by Sagave, is a generalization of the classical notion of A-infinity algebra, relevant to the case where one works over a commutative ring rather than a field. We initiate a study of…
