Apart from global topological problems an affine homogeneous space is locally described by its curvature, its torsion and a slightly less tangible object called its connection in a given base point. Using this description of the local…

Let p be a fibration of simply connected CW complexes with finite base B and fibre F. Let aut_1(p) denote the identity component of the space of all fibre-homotopy self-equivalences of p and Baut_1(p) the classifying space for this…

First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation…

In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…

This paper continues the development of the deformation theory of abelian categories introduced in a previous paper by the authors. We show first that the deformation theory of abelian categories is controlled by an obstruction theory in…

We introduce a certain differential graded bialgebra, neither commutative nor cocommutative, that governs perturbations of a differential on complexes supplied with an abstract Hodge decomposition. This leads to a conceptual treatment of…

Formality is a topological property, defined in terms of Sullivan's model for a space. In the simply-connected setting, a space is formal if its rational homotopy type is determined by the rational cohomology ring. In the general setting,…

Algebraic deformations provide a systematic approach to generalizing the symmetries of a physical theory through the introduction of new fundamental constants. The applications of deformations of Lie algebras and Hopf algebras to both…

Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. Criteria are given which characterize existence of a fine or coarse moduli space classifying, up to isomorphism, the representations of $\Lambda$ with fixed…

In this short note, we will explain that the good moduli space morphisms behave as if they are proper when we consider sheaf operations, though they are not separated. For example, the decomposition theorem and the base change theorem hold…

In this paper an algebraic model for unbased rational homotopy theory from the perspective of curved Lie algebras is constructed. As part of this construction a model structure for the category of pseudo-compact curved Lie algebras with…

In this paper, we define a new cohomology theory for multiplicative Hom-pre-Lie algebras which controls deformations of Hom-pre-Lie algebra structure. This new cohomology is a natural one by considering the structure map. We develop…

We say that a Lie (super)algebra is ''symmetric'' if with every root (with respect to the maximal torus) it has the opposite root of the same multiplicity. Over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristics (up to 7 or 11, enough…

Using the theory of extensions of L-infinity algebras, we construct rational homotopy models for classifying spaces of fibrations, giving answers in terms of classical homological functors, namely the Chevalley-Eilenberg and Harrison…

We use homotopy operators for the $L_\infty$-algebra associated with an equivariant deformation problem in order to describe a smooth parametrization of the space of structures around a given one. Along the way we give new algebraic and…

Given a commutative ring $R$ and finitely generated ideal $I$, one can consider the classes of $I$-adically complete, $L_0^I$-complete and derived $I$-complete complexes. Under a mild assumption on the ideal $I$ called weak pro-regularity,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unit. We consider the homotopy theory of the category of spectral sequences of $R$-modules with the class of weak equivalences given by those morphisms inducing a quasi-isomorphism at a certain fixed page.…

The geometry of the Lubin-Tate space of deformations of a formal group is studied via an \'etale, rigid analytic map from the deformation space to projective space. This leads to a simple description of the equivariant canonical bundle of…

We define the appropriate homological setting to study deformation theory of complete locally convex (curved) dg-algebras based on Positselski's contraderived categories. We define the corresponding Hochschild complex controlling…

We construct two algebraic versions of homotopy theory of rational disconnected topological spaces, one based on differential graded commutative associative algebras and the other one on complete differential graded Lie algebras. As an…
