We show that Clifford algebras provide a natural language to describe the physics of liquid crystal defects in 3D. This framework shows that most of these defects have fermionic nature, as the director field profile on a 2D cross section…

In this paper, we develop a cohomology theory of a left-symmetric conformal algebra and study its some applications. We define the cohomology of a left-symmetric conformal algebra, and then give an isomorphism between the cohomology spaces…

We define a cohomology for an arbitrary $K$-linear semistrict semigroupal 2-category $(\mathfrak{C},\otimes)$ (called in the paper a Gray semigroup) and show that its first order (unitary) deformations, up to the suitable notion of…

We use Clifford algebras to construct a unified formalism for studying constant extrinsic curvature immersed surfaces in riemannian and semi-riemannian $3$-manifolds in terms of immersed bilegendrian surfaces in their unitary bundles. As an…

Quantum symmetric algebras (or noncommutative polynomial rings) arise in many places in mathematics. In this article we find the multiplicative structure of their Hochschild cohomology when the coefficients are in an arbitrary bimodule…

When studying deformations of an $A$-module $M$, Laudal and Yau showed that one can consider 1-cocycles in the Hochschild cohomology of $A$ with coefficients in the bi-module $End_k(M).$ With this in mind, the use of higher order Hochschild…

We study manifolds endowed with an (almost) even Clifford (hermitian) structure and admitting a large automorphism group. We classify them when they are simply connected and the dimension of the automorphism group is maximal, and also prove…

We show for a coring which is finitely generated projective as a left module that the Cartier cohomology is isomorphic to the relative Hochschild cohomology of the right algebra. Furthermore, we show that this isomorphism lifts to the level…

We establish the deformation theory of Lie groupoid morphisms, describe the corresponding deformation cohomology of morphisms, and show the properties of the cohomology. We prove its invariance under isomorphisms of morphisms. Additionally,…

Given M copies of a q-deformed Weyl or Clifford algebra in the defining representation of a quantum group $G_q$, we determine a prescription to embed them into a unique, inclusive $G_q$-covariant algebra. The different copies are "coupled"…

We present a study of the homological algebra of bimodules over $A_\infty$-algebras endowed with an involution. Furthermore we introduce a derived description of Hochschild homology and cohomology for involutive $A_\infty$-algebras.

We introduce the notion of 3-Hom-Lie-Rinehart algebra and systematically describe a cohomology complex by considering coefficient modules. Furthermore, we consider extensions of a 3-Hom-Lie-Rinehart algebra and characterize the first…

There has been recent interest in novel Clifford geometric invariants of linear transformations. This motivates the investigation of such invariants for a certain type of geometric transformation of interest in the context of root systems,…

This paper studies averaging algebras, say, associative algebras endowed with averaging operators. We develop a cohomology theory for averaging algebras and justify it by interpreting lower degree cohomology groups as formal deformations…

Obtaining the symmetries of a model is a critical step towards developing an understanding and ultimately analytically or numerically solving the model. However, finding symmetries is generally extremely complicated, often being the result…

We introduce the notion of a $\theta$-almost twisted Poisson structure on manifolds, which involves incorporating a closed $1$-form $\theta$ into twisted Poisson structures under specific conditions. We provide a characterization of this…

Algebraic quantum field theory is considered from the perspective of the Hochschild cohomology bicomplex. This is a framework for studying deformations and symmetries. Deformation is a possible approach to the fundamental challenge of…

Let X be a an affine smooth symplectic variety over $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z},$ and A be its deformation quantization over the p-adic integers. We prove that for all $n\geq 1,$ the Hochschild cohomogy of $A/p^nA$ is isomorphic to the de…
