We adapt the work of Power to describe general, not-necessarily composable, not-necessarily commutative 2-categorical pasting diagrams and their composable and commutative parts. We provide a deformation theory for pasting diagrams valued…

In this work, we relate the three main formalisms for the notion of pasting diagram in strict $\omega$-categories: Street's parity complexes, Johnson's pasting schemes and Steiner's augmented directed complexes. In the process, we show that…

The Kodaira principle asserts that suitable cohomological contraction maps annihilate obstructions to deforming complex structures. In this paper, we revisit these phenomena from a purely analytic point of view, developing a refined power…

This paper studies the obstructions to deforming a map from a complex variety to another variety which is an immersion of codimension one. We extend the classical notion of semiregularity of subvarieties to maps between varieties, and show…

An unobstructedness theorem is proved for deformations of compact holomorphic Poisson manifolds and applied to a class of examples. These include certain rational surfaces and Hilbert schemes of points on Poisson surfaces. We study in…

We give a universal approach to the deformation-obstruction theory of objects of the derived category of coherent sheaves over a smooth projective family. We recover and generalise the obstruction class of Lowen and Lieblich, and prove that…

We develop a graphical calculus of manifold diagrams which generalises string and surface diagrams to arbitrary dimensions. Manifold diagrams are pasting diagrams for $(\infty, n)$-categories that admit a semi-strict composition operation…

Finite obstruction sets for lower ideals in the minor order are guaranteed to exist by the Graph Minor Theorem. It has been known for several years that, in principle, obstruction sets can be mechanically computed for most natural lower…

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 study various acyclicity conditions on higher-categorical pasting diagrams in the combinatorial framework of regular directed complexes. We present an apparently weakest acyclicity condition under which the $\omega$-category presented by…

We give a sufficient condition for a first order infinitesimal deformation of a curve on a 3-fold to be obstructed. As application we construct generically non-reduced components of the Hilbert schemes of uniruled 3-folds and the Hom scheme…

By using higher K-theory, we study deformation theory of K-theoretic cycles. As an application, we answer two questions posed by Mark Green and Philip Griffiths: (1). How to define tangent spaces to cycle class groups in general? (2).…

We develop the deformation theory of symplectic foliations, i.e. regular foliations equipped with a leafwise symplectic form. The main result of this paper is that each symplectic foliation has an attached $L_\infty$-algebra controlling its…

In this paper we take up again the deformation theory for $K$-linear pseudofunctors initiated in a previous work (Adv. Math. 182 (2004) 204-277). We start by introducing a notion of a 2-cosemisimplicial object in an arbitrary 2-category and…

Multiparameter persistent homology has emerged as a powerful generalization of topological data analysis, capable of encoding multivariate filtrations. However, the algebraic complexity of multiparameter persistence modules, marked by wild…

We prove the well-definedness of some deformations of the fibred biset category in characteristic zero. The method is to realize the fibred biset category and the deformations as the invariant parts of some categories whose compositions are…

This paper extends some results of Hatcher and Quinn beyond the metastable range. We give a bordism theoretic obstruction to deforming a map between manifolds simultaneously off of a collection of pairwise disjoint submanifolds under the…

Building on Power's notion of a pasting diagram, we prove a pasting theorem for categories enriched in quasi-categories.

We study structural conditions in dense graphs that guarantee the existence of vertex-spanning substructures such as Hamilton cycles. It is easy to see that every Hamiltonian graph is connected, has a perfect fractional matching and,…

We develop the deformation-obstruction calculus for morphisms of complexes with a fixed lift of the codomain, to derived categories of flat nilpotent deformations of abelian categories. As an application, we give an alternative proof that…
