To a homotopy algebra one may associate its deformation complex, which is naturally a differential graded Lie algebra. We show that infinity quasi-isomorphic homotopy algebras have L-infinity quasi-isomorphic deformation complexes by an…
This is a companion article to my papers on Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials and character formulae for the Lie superalgebras gl(m|n) (much revised!) and q(n). The goal is to develop the general theory of tilting modules for Lie superalgebras,…
We initiate the study of deformation theory in the context of derived and higher log geometry. After reconceptualizing the "exactification"-procedures in ordinary log geometry in terms of Quillen's approach to the cotangent complex, we…
We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…
The notion of Lie algebroids over a topological ringed space provides a unified framework to study various geometric structures. This geometric concept is intimately connected with well-known algebraic structures, including Gerstenhaber…
During the last decades algebraization of space turned out to be a promising tool at the interface between Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. Starting with works by Gel'fand-Kolmogoroff and Gel'fand-Naimark, this branch developed as from…
We study continuous groups of generalized Kerr-Schild transformations and the vector fields that generate them in any n-dimensional manifold with a Lorentzian metric. We prove that all these vector fields can be intrinsically characterized…
Given a Lie algebroid with a representation, we construct a graded Lie algebra whose Maurer-Cartan elements characterize relative Rota-Baxter operators on Lie algebroids. We give the cohomology of relative Rota-Baxter operators and study…
The aim of this paper is to extend Gerstenhaber formal deformations of algebras to the case of Hom-Alternative and Hom-Malcev algebras. We construct deformation cohomology groups in low dimensions. Using a composition construction, we give…
A method for establishing a Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the cohomology of Loday-type algebras is presented. This method is then applied to dendriform dialgebras and three types of trialgebras introduced by Loday and Ronco. Along the…
We set up foundations of representation theory over $S$, the sphere spectrum, which is the `initial ring' of stable homotopy theory. In particular, we treat $S$-Lie algebras and their representations, characters, $gl_n(S)$-Verma modules and…
Based on Nijenhuis-Richardson bracket and bidegree on the cohomology complex for a Lie conformal algebra, we develop a twisting theory of Lie conformal algebras. By using derived bracket constructions, we construct $L_\infty$-algebras from…
We briefly summarize our systematic construction procedure of q-deforming maps for Lie group covariant Weyl or Clifford algebras.
We associate to any Riemannian symmetric space (of finite or infinite dimension) a L$^*$-algebra, under the assumption that the curvature operator has a fixed sign. L$^*$-algebras are Lie algebras with a pleasant Hilbert space structure.…
A theorem of Lurie and Pridham establishes a correspondence between formal moduli problems and differential graded Lie algebras in characteristic zero, thereby formalising a well-known principle in deformation theory. We introduce a variant…
In this paper, we develop a new approach to the deformation theory of restricted Lie-Rinehart algebras in positive characteristic, based on the deformation theory of restricted morphisms introduced in our earlier work. We provide a full…
Let Y,Z be a pair of smooth coisotropic subvarieties in a smooth algebraic Poisson variety X. We show that any data of first order deformation of the structure sheaf O_X to a sheaf of noncommutative algebras and of the sheaves O_Y and O_Z…
As observed by Kawamata, a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing of a Wahl singularity gives rise to a one-parameter flat degeneration of a matrix algebra. A similar result holds for a general smoothing of any two-dimensional cyclic quotient…
We analyse infinitesimal deformations of pairs $(X,\mathcal{F})$ with $\mathcal{F}$ a coherent sheaf on a smooth projective manifold $X$ over an algebraic closed field of characteristic $0$. We describe a differential graded Lie algebra…
Given a normal $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein complex variety $X$, we prove that if one spreads it out to a normal $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein scheme $\mathcal{X}$ of mixed characteristic whose reduction $\mathcal{X}_p$ modulo $p$ has normal $F$-pure…
