We show that the reduced Khovanov homology of an oriented link $L$ in $S^3$ can be expressed as the homology of a chain complex constructed from a description of $L$ as the closure of a 1-tangle diagram $T$ in the annulus. Our chain complex…
Given an inclusion $A\hookrightarrow L$ of Lie algebroids sharing the same base manifold $M$, i.e. a Lie pair, we prove that the space $\Gamma(\Lambda^\bullet A^\vee)\otimes_{R} \frac{U(L)}{U(L)\cdot\Gamma(A)}$, where $R=C^\infty(M)$,…
In "Lie infinity algebras and higher analogues of Dirac structures and Courant algebroids" [arXiv:1003.1004], Marco Zambon constructs an $L_\infty$-algebra associated with any higher standard or twisted Courant algebroid (also known as a…
To any manifold equipped with a higher degree closed form, one can associate an L-infinity algebra of local observables that generalizes the Poisson algebra of a symplectic manifold. Here, by means of an explicit homotopy equivalence, we…
We calculate Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(\Delta(\lambda), \Delta(\mu)), Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(L(\lambda), \Delta(\mu)), Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(\Delta(\lambda), L(\mu)), and Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(L(\lambda), L(\mu)), where \Delta(\lambda) is the Weyl module of highest…
We explore the complex associated to a link in the geometric formalism of Khovanov's (n=2) link homology theory, determine its exact underlying algebraic structure and find its precise universality properties for link homology functors. We…
Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras $R_\theta$ of finite Lie type are affine quasihereditary with standard modules $\Delta(\pi)$ labeled by Kostant partitions of $\theta$. Let $\Delta$ be the direct sum of all standard modules. It is known…
Let $V$ be a standard subspace in the complex Hilbert space $H$ and $G$ be a finite dimensional Lie group of unitary and antiunitary operators on $H$ containing the modular group $(\Delta_V^{it})_{t \in R}$ of $V$ and the corresponding…
We define the notion of action of an L-infinity algebra $g$ on a graded manifold $M$, and show that such an action corresponds to a homological vector field on $g[1] \times M$ of a specific form. This generalizes the correspondence between…
We use Ng's LSFT algebra to upgrade Sabloff duality of Legendrian knots to a quasi-isomorphism of $A_\infty$ bimodules over the positive augmentation category $\mathcal{A}ug_+$. We also extend the Ekholm-Etnyre-Sabloff exact sequence to an…
In this review we give a detailed introduction to the theory of (curved) $L_\infty$-algebras and $L_\infty$-morphisms. In particular, we recall the notion of (curved) Maurer-Cartan elements, their equivalence classes and the twisting…
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…
Let $\L$ be an artin algebra. Iyama conjectures that the endomorphism ring of any two maximal $l$-orthogonal modules, $M_1$ and $M_2$, are derived equivalent. He proves the conjecture for $l=1$, and for $l>1$ he gives some orthogonality…
It is well-known that the Kontsevich formality [K97] for Hochschild cochains of the polynomial algebra $A=S(V^*)$ fails if the vector space $V$ is infinite-dimensional. In the present paper, we study the corresponding obstructions. We…
Let G_2 be the exceptional Lie group of automorphisms of the complex Cayley algebra and C be a generic, smooth, connected, projective curve over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus at least 2. For a complex Lie group G, let H^0(M(G),L^k) be the space of…
We study representations of hemistrict Lie 2-algebras and give a functorial construction of their cohomology. We prove that both the cohomology of an injective hemistrict Lie 2-algebra $L$ and the cohomology of the semistrict Lie 2-algebra…
Lie bialgebra structures on the extended affine Lie algebra $\widetilde{sl_2(\mathbb{C}_q)}$ are investigated. In particular, all Lie bialgebra structures on $\widetilde{sl_2(\mathbb{C}_q)}$ are shown to be triangular coboundary. This…

Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective curve of genus $g\geq 3$. Let $\mathbf{M}_2$ be the moduli space of semistable rank $2$ Higgs bundles with trivial determinant over $X$. We construct a desingularization $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbf{M}_2$…
