We introduce and study wheeled PROPs, an extension of the theory of PROPs which can treat traces and, in particular, solutions to the master equations which involve divergence operators. We construct a dg free wheeled PROP whose…
We introduce a concept of $\frac23$PROP generalizing the Kontsevich concept of $\frac12$PROP. We prove that some Stasheff-type compactification of the Kontsevich spaces $K(m,n)$ defines a topological $\frac23$PROP structure. The…
The notion of PROP models the operations with multiple inputs and multiple outputs, acting on some algebraic structures like the bialgebras or the Lie bialgebras. We prove a Koszul duality theory for PROPs generalizing the one for…
We study the cohomology of complexes of ordinary (non-decorated) graphs, introduced by M. Kontsevich. We construct spectral sequences converging to zero whose first page contains the graph cohomology. In particular, these series may be used…
This paper is concerned with a minimal resolution of the PROP for bialgebras. We prove a theorem about the form of this resolution (Theorem 15) and give, in Section 5, a lot of explicit formulas for the differential. Our minimal model…
Motivated by the problem of deformation quantization we introduce and study directed graph complexes with oriented loops and wheels. We develop some technique for computing cohomology of such graph complexes and apply it to several concrete…
This is a copy of my bachelor thesis, written under supervision of Sergey Shadrin in 2010. Original abstract: In this thesis we prove that the wheeled Poisson operad is not a wheeled Koszul operad. Chapter 1 introduces operads, the subclass…
In two seminal papers M. Kontsevich introduced graph homology as a tool to compute the homology of three infinite dimensional Lie algebras, associated to the three operads `commutative,' `associative' and `Lie.' We generalize his theorem to…
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]
In this paper, we revisit the construction of the hairy graph complexes associated to a cyclic operad, by exploiting modules over the appropriate twisted linearization of the downward Brauer category (and working over a field of…
We discuss the cohomology of the bridgeless graph complex, that is, the subcomplex of the Kontsevich graph complex spanned by bridgeless graphs.
We give a new proof of the non-triviality of wheel graph homology classes using higher operations on Lie graph homology and a derived version of Koszul duality for modular operads.
We will consider P-graph complexes, where P is a cyclic operad. P-graph complexes are natural generalizations of Kontsevich's graph complexes -- for P = the operad for associative algebras it is the complex of ribbon graphs, for P = the…
We study the deformation theory of morphisms of properads and props thereby extending to a non-linear framework Quillen's deformation theory for commutative rings. The associated chain complex is endowed with a Lie algebra up to homotopy…
In his seminal paper "Formality conjecture", M. Kontsevich introduced a graph complex $GC_{1ve}$ closely connected with the problem of constructing a formality quasi-isomorphism for Hochschild cochains. In this paper, we express the…
In two seminal papers Kontsevich used a construction called_graph homology_ as a bridge between certain infinite dimensional Lie algebras and various topological objects, including moduli spaces of curves, the group of outer automorphisms…
For each commutative, graded algebra with finite dimension in each degree, we construct a graded cohomology theory for graphs whose graded Euler characteristic is the chromatic polynomial of the graph. This extends our previous work which…
In math.QA/0506507 I. Gelfand and the authors introduced and studied a new class of algebras associated to directed graphs. In this paper we show that these algebras are Koszul for a large class of layered (i.e. ranked) graphs.
We prove that the inclusion from oriented graph complex into graph complex with at least one source is a quasi-isomorphism, showing that homology of the "sourced" graph complex is also equal to the homology of standard Kontsevich's graph…
We assign generalised convolutions (resp. traces) to graphs whose edges are decorated by smooth kernels (resp. smoothing operators) on a closed manifold. To do so, we introduce the concept of TraPs (Traces and Permutations), which roughly…
