Deformation quantization of Poisson manifolds is studied within the framework of an expansion in powers of derivatives of Poisson structures. We construct the Lie group associated with a Poisson bracket algebra which defines a second order…

We develop a theory of Lie algebroids over differentiable stacks that extends the standard theory of Lie algebroids over manifolds. In particular we show that Lie algebroids satisfy descent for submersions, define the category of Lie…

We show that there is an equivalence of $\infty$-categories between Lie algebroids and certain kinds of curved Lie algebras. For this we develop a method to study the $\infty$-category of curved Lie algebras using the homotopy theory of…

We study the geometric and algebraic properties of the twisted Poisson structures on Lie algebroids, leading to a definition of their modular class and to an explicit determination of a representative of the modular class, in particular in…

A compatible $L_\infty$-algebra is a graded vector space together with two compatible $L_\infty$-algebra structures on it. Given a graded vector space, we construct a graded Lie algebra whose Maurer-Cartan elements are precisely compatible…

We construct the moduli spaces associated to the solutions of equations of motion (modulo gauge transformations) of the Poisson sigma model with target being an integrable Poisson manifold. The construction can be easily extended to a case…

Groupoids are mathematical structures able to describe symmetry properties more general than those described by groups. They were introduced (and named) by H. Brandt in 1926. Around 1950, Charles Ehresmann used groupoids with additional…

The Clifford algebra over the three-dimensional real linear space includes its linear structure and its exterior algebra, the subspaces spanned by multivectors of the same degree determine a gradation of the Clifford algebra. Through these…

We introduce the notion of pseudo-Poisson Nijenhuis manifolds. These manifolds are generalizations of Poisson Nijenhuis manifolds by Magri and Morosi \cite{MM}. We show that any pseudo-Poisson Nijenhuis manifold has an associated quasi-Lie…

Let $\mathfrak q$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra, $\vartheta\in Aut(\mathfrak q)$ a finite order automorphism, and $\mathfrak q_0$ the subalgebra of fixed points of $\vartheta$. Using $\vartheta$ one can construct a pencil $\mathcal P$…

We describe transposed Poisson algebra structures on Block Lie algebras $\mathcal B(q)$ and Block Lie superalgebras $\mathcal S(q)$, where $q$ is an arbitrary complex number. Specifically, we show that the transposed Poisson structures on…

Many interesting C*-algebras can be viewed as quantizations of Poisson manifolds. I propose that a Poisson manifold may be quantized by a twisted polarized convolution C*-algebra of a symplectic groupoid. Toward this end, I define…

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…

We introduce mappings between spaces of functions on (super)manifolds that generalize pullbacks with respect to smooth maps but are, in general, nonlinear (actually, formal). The construction is based on canonical relations and generating…

The procedure "Lie group --> Lie algebra" has a generalization "simplicial manifold --> L_infinity algebra", or yet better, "presheaf on the category of surjective submersions --> L_infinity algebra". We describe this generalization,…

Object of investigation are almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian-Norden metrics of the lowest dimension. The considered manifolds are constructed on 4-dimensional Lie groups. It is established a relation between the classes of a…

In this survey, we discuss a series of linearization problems--for Poisson structures, Lie algebroids, and Lie groupoids. The last problem involves a conjecture on the structure of proper groupoids. Attempting to prove this by the method of…

We extend the notion of Poisson-Lie groups and Lie bialgebras from Poisson to g-quasi-Poisson geometry and provide a quantization to braided Hopf algebras in the corresponding Drinfeld category. The basic examples of these g-quasi-Poisson…

Reductions of higher tangent bundles of Lie groupoids provide natural examples of geometric structures which we would like to call higher algebroids. Such objects can be also constructed abstractly starting from an arbitrary almost Lie…

We study left-invariant generalized K\"ahler structures on almost abelian Lie groups, i.e., on solvable Lie groups with a codimension-one abelian normal subgroup. In particular, we classify six-dimensional almost abelian Lie groups which…
