We give explicit formulae for operations in Hochschild cohomology which are analogous to the operations in the homology of double loop spaces. As a corollary we obtain that any brace algebra in finite characteristic is always a restricted…

We develop the notion of a (pro-) conformal pseudo operad and apply it to the construction of the basic cohomology complex of a vertex algebra. The paper heavily uses the ideas and constructions of the work of Tamarkin [Tam02]

We investigate constructions of higher arity self-distributive operations, and give relations between cohomology groups corresponding to operations of different arities. For this purpose we introduce the notion of mutually distributive…

In present paper we develop the deformation theory of operads and algebras over operads. Free resolutions (constructed via Boardman-Vogt approach) are used in order to describe formal moduli spaces of deformations. We apply the general…

This paper is a follow-up contribution to our work [20] where we discussed some invariant subspace results for contractions on Hilbert spaces. Here we extend the results of [20] to the context of n-tuples of bounded linear operators on…

This paper confirms the following suggestion of Kontsevich. In the appropriate derived sense, an action of the framed little disks operad and a trivialization of the circle action is the same information as an action of the…

This paper gives a partial description of the homotopy type of K, the space of long knots in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. The primary result is the construction of a homotopy equivalence between K and the free little 2-cubes object over…

In this paper, we present an explicit method to identify equivariant suboperads of coinduced operads that contain only fixed points associated to any desired transfer system. Our method works for a class of operads that we call intersection…

We define a construction on operads which yields a new description of the minimal model. The construction also allows us to define algebraic structures on the homology of chain complexes with homologously trivial operad algebra structures,…

We study equivariant operations on the periodic cyclic homology of a dg algebra that arise from the chain level action of the two-colored Kontsevich-Soibelman operad. Using classical computations of Cohen [Coh], we explicitly compute a set…

We show that for any fixed point P on a Riemann surface S the distinct realizations of cocycles in H^1(S,O) correspond to the natural appearence of the standard Heisenberg vertex operator algebra II(P) and to the commutative Heisenberg…

We give a new proof of Dunn's additivity for the little $n$-cubes operads $C_n$, which has the advantage of being considerably shorter than the ones in the literature. At the end we remark on how our proof can be adjusted to work for the…

Let $X$ be a simply connected space and $\Bbb K$ be any field. The normalized singular cochains $N^*(X; {\Bbb K})$ admit a natural strongly homotopy commutative algebra structure, which induces a natural product on the Hochschild homology…

We consider groupoids on $\{1,2,..,d\}^\mathbb{N}$, cocycles and the counting measure as transverse function. We generalize results relating quasi-invariant probabilities with eigenprobabilities for the dual of the Ruelle operator. We…

This paper studies symplectic manifolds that admit semi-free circle actions with isolated fixed points. We prove, using results on the Seidel element due to McDuff and Tolman, that the (small) quantum cohomology of a $2n$ dimensional…

Given a map $B\to B\mathrm{Top}(n)$ of spaces, one can define a version $\mathbb{E}_{B}$ of the little cubes operad, whose construction is due to Lurie. We show that $\mathbb{E}_{B}$ enjoys the universal property that, for every…

It is shown that the operad maps $E_n\to E_{n+k}$ are formal over the reals for $k\geq 2$ and non-formal for $k=1$. Furthermore we compute the cohomology of the deformation complex of the operad maps $E_{n}\to E_{n+1}$, proving an algebraic…

In this expository paper we give an elementary, hands-on computation of the homology of the little disks operad, showing that the homology of a $d-fold loop space is a Poisson algebra. One aim is to familiarize a greater audience with…

An operad (this paper deals with non-symmetric operads)may be conceived as a partial algebra with a family of insertion operations, Gerstenhaber's circle-i products, which satisfy two kinds of associativity, one of them involving…

A new topological operad is introduced, called the splicing operad. This operad acts on a broad class of spaces of self-embeddings N --> N where N is a manifold. The action of this operad on EC(j,M) (self embeddings R^j x M --> R^j x M with…
