The fundamental example of Gerstenhaber algebra is the space $T_{poly}({\mathbb R}^d)$ of polyvector fields on $\mathbb{R}^d$, equipped with the wedge product and the Schouten bracket. In this paper, we explicitely describe what is the…
We construct Lie algebras of vector fields on universal bundles $\mathcal{E}^2_{N,0}$ of symmetric squares of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g=1,2,\dots$, where $g=\left[\frac{N-1}{2}\right], \ N=3,4,\ldots$. For each of these Lie algebras,…
This paper is devoted to the study of the relation between `formal exponential maps,' the Atiyah class, and Kapranov $L_\infty[1]$ algebras associated with dg manifolds in the $C^\infty$ context. Given a dg manifold, we prove that a `formal…
Given a pair of (real or complex) Lie algebroid structures on a vector bundle $A$ (over $M$) and its dual $A^*$, and a line bundle $\module$ such that $\module\otimes\module=(\wedge^{\TOP} A^*\otimes\wedge^{\TOP} T^*M)$, there exist two…
Let $\mathbb K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $V$ be a module over the polynomial ring $\mathbb K[x,y]$. The actions of $x$ and $y$ determine linear operators $P$ and $Q$ on $V$ as a vector space over $\mathbb…

The aim of this note is to prove various general properties of a generalization of the full module of first order differential operators on a commutative ring - a $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra. A $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra $\tilde{L}$…
Given any pair $(L,A)$ of Lie algebroids, we construct a differential graded manifold $(L[1]\oplus L/A,Q)$, which we call Fedosov dg manifold. We prove that the cohomological vector field $Q$ constructed on $L[1]\oplus L/A$ by the Fedosov…
Given a vertex Lie algebra $\mathscr L$ equipped with an action by automorphisms of a cyclic group $\Gamma$, we define spaces of cyclotomic coinvariants over the Riemann sphere. These are quotients of tensor products of smooth modules over…
A garland based on a manifold $P$ is a finite set of manifolds homeomorphic to $P$ with some of them glued together at marked points. Fix a manifold $M$ and consider a space $\NN$ of all smooth mappings of garlands based on $P$ into $M$. We…
We generalize the coupled braces {x}{y} of Gerstenhaber and {x}{y,...,z} of Getzler depicting compositions of multilinear maps in the Hochschild complex C(A)=Hom(TA;A) of a graded vector space A to expressions of the form…
We review Lie polynomials as a mathematical framework that underpins the structure of the so-called double copy relationship between gauge and gravity theories (and a network of other theories besides). We explain how Lie polynomials…
We show that a graded commutative algebra A with any square zero odd differential operator is a natural generalization of a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. While such an operator of order 2 defines a Gerstenhaber (Lie) algebra structure on A,…
The spaces of linear differential operators on ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ acting on tensor densities of degree $\lambda$ and the space of functions on $T^*{\mathbb{R}}^n$ which are polynomial on the fibers are not isomorphic as modules over the Lie…
For a Lie algebroid $L$ and a Lie subalgebroid $A$, i.e. a Lie pair $(L,A)$, we study the Atiyah class and the Todd class of the pullback dg (i.e. differential graded) Lie algebroid $\pi^! L$ of $L$ along the bundle projection $\pi:A[1] \to…
A celebrated theorem of Kapranov states that the Atiyah class of the tangent bundle of a complex manifold $X$ makes $T_X[-1]$ into a Lie algebra object in $D^+(X)$, the bounded below derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$. Furthermore…
Given a Lie groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ over $M$, $A$ the tangent Lie algebroid of $\mathcal{G}$, and $\rho: A\rightarrow TM$ the anchor map, we provide a formula that decomposes an arbitrary multiplicative $k$-form $\Theta$ on $\mathcal{G}$…
We discuss some aspects and examples of applications of dual algebraic pairs $({\cal G}_1,{\cal G}_2)$ in quantum many-body physics. They arise in models whose Hamiltonians $H$ have invariance groups $G_i$. Then one can take ${\cal G}_1 =…
A double algebra is a linear space $V$ equipped with linear map $V\otimes V\to V\otimes V$. Additional conditions on this map lead to the notions of Lie and associative double algebras. We prove that simple finite-dimensional Lie double…
