Let $V$ be a vertex algebra and $M$ a $V$-module. We define the first and second cohomology of $V$ with coefficients in $M$, and we show that the second cohomology $H^{2}(V, M)$ corresponds bijectively to the set of equivalence classes of…
In this paper, the authors apply a stratification of moduli spaces of complex Lie algebras to analyzing the moduli spaces of nxn matrices under scalar similarity and bilinear forms under the cogredient action. For similar matrices, we give…

First we give a complex ball uniformization of the moduli space of 8 ordered points on the projective line by using the theory of periods of K3 surfaces. Next we give a projective model of this moduli space by using automorphic forms on a…

In this paper we consider germs of k-parameter generic families of analytic 2-dimensional vector fields unfolding a saddle-node of codimension k and we give a complete modulus of analytic classification under orbital equivalence and a…
In this paper, we study a deformation theory of rigid analytic spaces. We develop a theory of cotangent complexes for rigid geometry which fits in with our deformations. We then use the complexes to give a cohomological description of…
We describe the algebra of a universal formal deformation as the zeroth cohomology of the dg Lie algebra corresponding to this deformation problem. A report at Arbeitstagung 1997 on the joint work with V.Hinich.
In this paper, we define and study (co)homology theories of a compatible associative algebra $A$. At first, we construct a new graded Lie algebra whose Maurer-Cartan elements are given by compatible associative structures. Then we define…
We compute cohomology of the moduli space of genus three curves with level two structure and some related spaces. In particular, we determine the cohomology groups of the moduli space of plane quartics with level two structure as…
Tropical geometry is a relatively recent field in mathematics created as a simplified model for certain problems in algebraic geometry. We introduce the definition of abstract and planar tropical curves as well as their properties,…
A commutative associative algebra $A$ over ${\mathbb C}$ with a derivation is one of the simplest examples of a vertex algebra. However, the differences between the modules for $A$ as a vertex algebra and the modules for $A$ as an…
We compute the first, second, third, and fifth rational cohomology groups of the moduli space of stable n-pointed genus g curves, for all g and n, using (mostly) algebro-geometric techniques.
