We construct a Chern-Simons gauge theory for dg Lie and L-infinity algebras on any one-dimensional manifold and quantize this theory using the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism and Costello's renormalization techniques. Koszul duality and…
We prove that the space of shifted Poisson structures on a derived scheme $X$ locally of finite presentation is equivalent to the space of shifted Lagrangian thickenings out $X$, solving a conjecture in shifted Poisson geometry. As a…
We extend results about $n$-shifted coisotropic structures from part I of this work to the setting of derived Artin stacks. We show that an intersection of coisotropic morphisms carries a Poisson structure of shift one less. We also compare…
We study the cup product on the Hochschild cohomology of the stack quotient [X/G] of a smooth quasi-projective variety X by a finite group G. More specifically, we construct a G-equivariant sheaf of graded algebras on X whose G-invariant…
We show that an n-geometric stack may be regarded as a special kind of simplicial scheme, namely a Duskin n-hypergroupoid in affine schemes, where surjectivity is defined in terms of covering maps, yielding Artin n-stacks, Deligne-Mumford…
We investigate the quantization problem of $(-1)$-shifted derived Poisson manifolds in terms of $\BV_\infty$-operators on the space of Berezinian half-densities. We prove that quantizing such a $(-1)$-shifted derived Poisson manifold is…
Kontsevich's formula for a deformation quantization of Poisson structures involves a Feynman series of graphs, with the weights given by some complicated integrals (using certain pullbacks of the standard angle form on a circe). We explain…
On a cotangent bundle $T\sp*G$ of a Lie group $G$ one can describe the standard Liouville form $\theta$ and the symplectic form $d \theta$ in terms of the right Maurer Cartan form and the left moment mapping (of the right action of $G$ on…
We study the shifted Poisson structure on the cochain complex C*(g) of a graded Lie algebra arising from shifted Lie bialgebra structure on g. We apply this to construct a 1-shifted Poisson structures on an infinitesimal quotient of the…
It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value…
We consider the space of graph connections (lattice gauge fields) which can be endowed with a Poisson structure in terms of a ciliated fat graph. (A ciliated fat graph is a graph with a fixed linear order of ends of edges at each vertex.)…
Any classical r-matrix on the Lie algebra of linear operators on a real vector space V gives rise to a quadratic Poisson structure on V which admits a deformation quantization stemming from the construction of V. Drinfel'd. We exhibit in…
Let X be a smooth affine algebraic variety over a field K of characteristic 0, and let R be a complete parameter K-algebra (e.g. R = K[[h]]). We consider associative (resp. Poisson) R-deformations of the structure sheaf O_X. The set of…
Recent developments concerning canonical quantisation and gauge invariant quantum mechanical systems and quantum field theories are briefly discussed. On the one hand, it is shown how diffeomorphic covariant representations of the…
We relate graph complexes, Calabi-Yau $A_\infty$-categories and Kontsevich's cocycle construction. Our main result produces a commutative square of shifted Poisson algebras; one of its edges is the Loday-Quillen-Tsygan map, generalized to…
Based on work done by Bonechi, Cattaneo, Felder and Zabzine on Poisson sigma models, we formally show that Kontsevich's star product can be obtained from the twisted convolution algebra of the geometric quantization of a Lie 2-groupoid, one…
Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface, and let ${\mathcal Q}(r,d)$ denote the quot scheme parametrizing the torsion quotients of ${\mathcal O}^{\oplus r}_X$ of degree $d$. Given a projective structure $P$ on $X$, we show that the…
Let $\{{\cdot},{\cdot}\}_{\boldsymbol{\mathcal{P}}}$ be a variational Poisson bracket in a field model on an affine bundle $\pi$ over an affine base manifold $M^m$. Denote by $\times$ the commutative associative multiplication in the…
In this paper, we apply stack theoretic ideas to the classification problem in Dieudonn\'e theory. First, we use crystalline cohomology of classifying stacks to directly reconstruct the classical Dieudonn\'e module of a finite, $p$-power…
Without recourse to the sophisticated machinery of twisted group algebras, projective character tables and explicit values of 2-cocycles, we here present a simple algorithm to study the gauge theory data of D-brane probes on a generic…
