Let K be a Lie group and P be a K-principal bundle on a manifold M. Suppose given furthermore a central extension 1\to Z\to \hat{K}\to K\to 1 of K. It is a classical question whether there exists a \hat{K}-principal bundle \hat{P} on M such…

We investigate deformations of skew group algebras that arise from a finite cyclic group acting on a polynomial ring in positive characteristic, where characteristic divides the order of the group. We allow deformations which deform both…

We prove that two-sided tilting complexes, and dualizing complexes, over simple Goldie rings (with some technical conditions) are always shifts of invertible bimodules. This allows us to describe the derived Picard groups of such rings, and…

A description of a ring of functions on the base of a universal formal deformation for several moduli problems is given. The answer is given in terms of a homology group of a certain dg Lie algebra canonically (up to an essentially unique…

In this paper we study the deformation and Q-Gorenstein deformation theory of schemes with non-isolated singularities. We obtain obstruction spaces for the existence of deformations and also for local deformations to exist globally. Finally…

We construct Grothendieck pairs witnessing that the following are not profinite invariants: stable commutator length, quasimorphisms (answering a question of Echtler and Kammeyer), property NL (which obstructs actions on hyperbolic spaces),…

Let R be a commutative, noetherian, local ring. Topological Q-vector spaces modelled on full subcategories of the derived category of R are constructed in order to study intersection multiplicities.

We give a sufficient condition for a first order infinitesimal deformation of a curve on a 3-fold to be obstructed. As application we construct generically non-reduced components of the Hilbert schemes of uniruled 3-folds and the Hom scheme…
