We introduce the notion of a conformally Fedosov structure and construct an associated Cartan connection. When an appropriate curvature vanishes, this allows us to construct a family of natural differential complexes akin to the BGG…
We construct the Kuranishi spaces, or in other words, the versal deformations, for the following classes of connections with fixed divisor of poles $D$: all such connections, as well as for its subclasses of integrable, integrable…
We show that the deformation theory of a perfect complex and that of its determinant are related by the trace map, in a general setting of sheaves on a site. The key technical step, in passing from the setting of modules over a ring where…
This paper introduces a new construction of subcomplexes associated with a truncated multicomplex. Inspired by the machinery of spectral sequences, this construction yields a collection of interrelated subcomplexes whose differentials…
Using the techniques developed by Lunin and Maldacena we calaculate the supergravity solutions of membranes and fivebranes in the presence of a background C field. All the distinct possible C-field configurations are explored. Decoupling…
We prove an integral representation result for a class of variational functionals appearing in the framework of hierarchical systems of structured deformations via a global method for relaxation. Some applications to specific relaxation…
We describe the family of real structures $\sigma$ on principal holomorphic torus bundles $X$ over tori, and prove its connectedness when the complex dimension is at most three. From this and previous results of the authors follows that the…
We study some differential complexes in continuum mechanics that involve both symmetric and non-symmetric second-order tensors. In particular, we show that the tensorial analogue of the standard grad-curl-div complex can simultaneously…
We consider deformations of bounded complexes of modules for a profinite group G over a field of positive characteristic. We prove a finiteness theorem which provides some sufficient conditions for the versal deformation of such a complex…
We prove the equivalence of the deformation theory for a higher dimensional Calabi--Yau manifold and that for its dg category of perfect complexes by giving a natural isomorphism of the deformation functors. As a consequence, the dg…
Abstract deformations of the CR structure of a compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are encoded by complex functions on $M$. In sharp contrast with the higher dimensional case, the natural integrability condition…
We develop the theory of versal deformations of dialgebras and describe a method for constructing a miniversal deformation of a dialgebra.
We construct a complex of differential forms on a local $C^\infty$-ringed space. The two main classes of spaces we have in mind are differential spaces in the sense of Sikorski and $C^\infty$-schemes. Just as in the case of manifolds the…
We compute explicit transgression forms for the Euler and Pontrjagin classes of a Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension 4 under a conformal change of the metric, or a change to a Riemannian connection with torsion. These formulae describe…
We reproduce the quantum cohomology of toric varieties (and of some hypersurfaces in projective spaces) as the cohomology of certain vertex algebras with differential. The deformation technique allows us to compute the cohomology of the…
The theory of modular deformations is generalized for the category of complex analytic polyhedra which includes germs of complex space as well as any compact complex analytic space. The objective of the theory is a construction of fine…
This paper is a sequel to "t-structures and twisted complexes on derived injectives" by the same authors. We develop the foundations of the infinitesimal derived deformation theory of pretriangulated dg-categories endowed with t-structures.…
We classify (up to quasi-isomorphism) the free differential modules whose homology is equal to a given module $M$ by developing a theory for deforming an arbitrary free complex into a differential module. We use an iterative approach to…
We relate analytically defined deformations of modular curves and modular forms from the literature to motivic periods via cohomological descriptions of deformation theory. Leveraging cohomological vanishing results, we prove the existence…
We study deformations of affine toric varieties. The entire deformation theory of these singularities is encoded by the so-called versal deformation. The main goal of our paper is to construct the homogeneous part of some degree -R of this,…
