This paper reinterprets the symmetries of equivariant Khovanov homology, discovered by Khovanov and Sano, within the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formalism. We identify the Shumakovitch operator $\hat{\nu}$ as a BV Laplacian whose nilpotency, a…

A dg cyclic operad $BVHgraphs$ of hypergraphs is introduced which comes equipped with an explicit quasi-isomorphism $BV\rightarrow BVHgraphs$ from the { cyclic} operad $BV$ of Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras. A proof that the cohomology of…

In this paper, we initiate the study of the Givental group action on Cohomological Field Theories in terms of homotopical algebra. More precisely, we show that the stabilisers of Topological Field Theories in genus 0 (respectively in genera…

We associate the new type of supersymmetric matrix models with any solution to the quantum master equation of the noncommutative Batalin-Vilkovisky geometry. The asymptotic expansion of the matrix integrals gives homology classes in the…

The Bershadsky-Polyakov algebras are the original examples of nonregular W-algebras, obtained from the affine vertex operator algebras associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_3$ by quantum hamiltonian reduction. In [arXiv:2007.03917], we explored…

We provide a new $L^2$-Hodge theoretic construction of a Frobenius manifold structure on the cohomology of a Calabi-Yau smooth projective hypersurface $V$, using Li-Wen's $L^2$-Hodge theory [9] of a Landau-Ginzburg model with compact…

Let X be a topological space. The homology of the iterated loop space $H_*\Omega^n X$ is an algebra over the homology of the framed n-disks operad $H_*f\mathcal{D}_n$ \cite{Getzler:BVAlg,Salvatore-Wahl:FrameddoBVa}. We determine completely…
