The consistent, local, smooth deformations of the dual formulation of linearized gravity involving a tensor field in the exotic representation of the Lorentz group with Young symmetry type (D-3,1) (one column of length D-3 and one column of…
We apply the BV formalism to non-commutative field theories, introduce BRST symmetry, and gauge-fix the models. Interestingly, we find that treating the full gauge symmetry in non-commutative models can lead to reducible gauge algebras. As…
We define a basic class of algebras which we call homotopy path algebras. We find that such algebras always admit a cellular resolution and detail the intimate relationship between these algebras, stratifications of topological spaces, and…
We develop the formalism of universal torsors in equivariant birational geometry and apply it to produce new examples of nonbirational but stably birational actions of finite groups.
We consider the algebra of spatial diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations in the canonical formalism of General Relativity in the Ashtekar and ADM variables. Modifying the Poisson bracket by including surface terms in accordance with our…
As a generalization of the linear Poisson bracket on the dual space of a Lie algebra, we introduce certain non-linear Poisson brackets which are ``cocycle perturbations'' of the linear Poisson bracket. We show that these special Poisson…
We classify the algebraic combinatorial geometries of arbitrary field extensions of transcendence degree greater than 4 and describe their groups of automorphisms. Our results and proofs extend similar results and proofs by Evans and…
Several constructive homological methods based on noncommutative Gr\"obner bases are known to compute free resolutions of associative algebras. In particular, these methods relate the Koszul property for an associative algebra to the…
For R=Q/J with Q a commutative graded algebra over a field and J non-zero, we relate the slopes of the minimal resolutions of R over Q and of k=R/R_{+} over R. When Q and R are Koszul and J_1=0 we prove Tor^Q_i(R,k)_j=0 for j>2i, for each…
We give variants of lifting construction, which define new classes of modular forms on the Siegel upper half-space of complex dimension 3 with respect to the full paramodular groups (defining moduli of Abelian surfaces with arbitrary…
The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of (noncommutative) transposed Poisson conformal algebras, which serve as the conformal analogues of transposed Poisson algebras and admit a rich class of identities. We show that the tensor…
We introduce the Courant algebroid lift, a new construction that takes a Courant algebroid together with a vector bundle connection and produces, when the connection is flat in the image of the anchor, a Courant algebroid. In general, this…
Given a vector bundle $A\to M$ we study the geometry of the graded manifolds $T^*[k]A[1]$, including their canonical symplectic structures, compatible Q-structures and Lagrangian Q-submanifolds. We relate these graded objects to classical…
Under very strong axioms, there is precisely one real noncommutative geometry between the classical one and the free one, namely the half-classical one, coming from the relations $abc=cba$. We discuss here the complex analogues of this…
We characterize in terms of a combinatorial condition on the graph $\Gamma$ when the group $\mathrm{PAut}(A_\Gamma)$ of pure symmetric automorphisms of the RAAG $A_\Gamma$ and its outer version $\mathrm{POut}(A_\Gamma)$ have a descending…
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…
Classical $W$-algebras in higher dimensions are constructed. This is achieved by generalizing the classical Gel'fand-Dickey brackets to the commutative limit of the ring of classical pseudodifferential operators in arbitrary dimension.…
The classification, both up to isomorphism or up to equivalence, of the gradings on a finite dimensional nonassociative algebra A over an algebraically closed field F, such that its group scheme of automorphisms is smooth, is shown to be…
The deformations of higher-spin symmetries induced by cubic interactions of symmetric massless bosonic fields are analyzed within the metric-like formalism. Our analysis amends the existing classification according to gauge-algebra…
It is shown that the new Poisson brackets proposed in Part I of this work (J. Math. Phys. 34, 5747(hep-th/9305133)) arise naturally in an extension of the formal variational calculus incorporating divergences. The linear spaces of local…
