We consider log deformations of affine surfaces with fibrations by the affine lines. Such a fibration is of affine type (resp. of complete type) if the base curve of the fibration is an affine curve (resp. a complete curve). The case of…
The aim of this paper is to review the deformation theory of $n$-Lie algebras. We summarize the 1-parameter formal deformation theory and provide a generalized approach using any unital commutative associative algebra as a deformation base.…
We study deformations of complex projective varieties that are homotopically or homologically trivial. We formulate several conjectures and give some examples and partial answers.
We give an exposition of the formal aspects of deformation theory in the language of fibered categories, instead of the more traditional one of functors. The main concepts are that of tangent space to a deformation problem, obstruction…
For those deformations that satisfy a certain non-degeneracy condition, we describe the structure of certain simple modules of the deformations of the subcharacter algebra of a finite group. For finite abelian groups, we prove that the…
We consider the deformation of abelian integrals which arose from the study of SG form factors. Besides the known properties they are shown to satisfy Riemann bilinear identity. The deformation of intersection number of cycles on…
In this paper, we prove a result related to the deformation of complex submanifolds, modifying a result of Kodaira (Ann. Math, 75(1), 146-162, 1962).
Abelian deformations of ordinary algebras of functions are studied. The role of Harrison cohomology in classifying such deformations is illustrated in the context of simple examples chosen for their relevance to physics. It is well known…

We develop the foundations of the deformation theory of compact complete affine space forms and affine crystallographic groups. Using methods from the theory of linear algebraic groups we show that these deformation spaces inherit an…
We extend the formality theorem of M. Kontsevich from deformations of the structure sheaf on a manifold to deformations of gerbes.
In this article, we introduce a deformation cohomology of Leibniz superalgebras. Also, we introduce formal deformation theory of Leibniz superalgebras. Using deformation cohomology we study the formal deformation theory of Leibniz…
These notes deal with a few aspects of Lie algebras and Lie groups, including some matters related to exponentiation.
In the first section we recall some basic notions on Lie algebras. In a second time we study the algebraic variety of complex $n$-dimensional Lie algebras. We present different notions of deformations : Gerstenhaber deformations,…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for some deformation algebras to provide formal Frobenius structures are given. Also, examples of formal Frobenius structures with fundamental tensor that is not of the deformation type and examples of…
Degenerations, contractions and deformations of various algebraic structures play an important role in mathematics and physics. There are many different definitions and special cases of these notions. We try to give a general definition…
We prove a number of basic vanishing results for modified diagonal classes. We also obtain some sharp results for modified diagonals of curves and abelian varieties, and we prove a conjecture of O'Grady about modified diagonals on double…
An algebraic deformation theory of module-algebras over a bialgebra is constructed. The cases of module-coalgebras, comodule-algebras, and comodule-coalgebras are also considered.
This is an expository article on the theory of formal group laws in homotopy theory, with the goal of leading to the connection with higher-dimensional abelian varieties and automorphic forms. These are roughly based on a talk at the…
