Motivated by the problem of transverse deformation quantization of foliated manifolds, we describe a quantization of Dirac structures (more precisely, of those that are formal deformations of regular ones) to stacks of algebroids in the…
The purpose of this paper is to develop a deformation theory controlled by pre-Lie algebras with divided powers over a ring of positive characteristic. We show that every differential graded pre-Lie algebra with divided powers comes with…
We consider a simple instance of action up to homotopy. More precisely, we consider strict actions of DGLAs in degrees -1 and 0 on degree 1 NQ-manifolds. In a more conventional language this means: strict actions of Lie algebra crossed…
In this article, $X$ will denote a ${\cal C}^{\infty}$ manifold. In a very famous article, Kontsevich showed that the differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA) of polydifferential operators on $X$ is formal. Calaque extended this theorem to…
Deformed gauge transformations on deformed coordinate spaces are considered for any Lie algebra. The representation theory of this gauge group forces us to work in a deformed Lie algebra as well. This deformation rests on a twisted Hopf…
We construct a cohomology theory controlling the deformations of a general Drinfel'd algebra. The picture presented here has two sides -- the combinatorial one related with the fact of the existence of a graded Lie algebra structure on the…
Any deformation of a Weyl or Clifford algebra can be realized through some change of generators in the undeformed algebra. Here we briefly describe and motivate our systematic procedure for constructing all such changes of generators for…
We examine the Hochschild cohomology governing graded deformations for finite cyclic groups acting on polynomial rings. We classify the infinitesimal graded deformations of the skew group algebra $S\rtimes G$ for a cyclic group $G$ acting…
We generalise Hinich's Theorem of descent of Deligne groupoids to the case where the dgLas involved have no negative cohomology. We apply this result to study the infinitesimal deformations of a morphism $\alpha: {\mathcal F} \to {\mathcal…
In this paper we discuss the question of integrating differential graded Lie algebras (DGLA) to differential graded Lie groups (DGLG). We first recall the classical problem of integration in the context, and present the construction for…
An algebraic deformation theory of coalgebra morphisms is constructed.
Let X be a smooth affine algebraic variety over a field K of characteristic 0, and let R be a complete parameter K-algebra (e.g. R = K[[h]]). We consider associative (resp. Poisson) R-deformations of the structure sheaf O_X. The set of…
Several Clifford algebras that are covariant under the action of a Lie algebra $g$ can be deformed in a way consistent with the deformation of $Ug$ into a quantum group (or into a triangular Hopf algebra) $U_qg$, i.e. so as to remain…
We study deformations of Lie groupoids by means of the cohomology which controls them. This cohomology turns out to provide an intrinsic model for the cohomology of a Lie groupoid with values in its adjoint representation. We prove several…
Lie groupoids and their associated algebroids arise naturally in the study of the constitutive properties of continuous media. Thus, Continuum Mechanics and Differential Geometry illuminate each other in a mutual entanglement of theory and…
We define and make initial study of Lie groupoids equipped with a compatible homogeneity (or graded bundle) structure, such objects we will refer to as weighted Lie groupoids. One can think of weighted Lie groupoids as graded manifolds in…
We introduce an equivariant version of Hochschild cohomology as the deformation cohomology to study equivariant deformations of associative algebras equipped with finite group actions.
We develop an analogue of the deformation to the normal cone in the context of derived algebraic geometry. This provides any given morphism of derived stacks with a degeneration to the zero section of its normal bundle (i.e., its 1-shifted…
There has long been a philosophy that every deformation problem in characteristic zero should be governed by a differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA). In this paper, the theory of Simplicial Deformation Complexes (SDCs) is developed, as an…
Lie algebroids can not always be integrated into Lie groupoids. We introduce a new object--``Weinstein groupoid'', which is a differentiable stack with groupoid-like axioms. With it, we have solved the integration problem of Lie algebroids.…
