We construct Quillen equivalent semi-model structures on the categories of dg-Lie algebroids and $L_\infty$-algebroids over a commutative dg-algebra in characteristic zero. This allows one to apply the usual methods of homotopical algebra…

Bakalov, Kac and Voronov introduced Leibniz conformal algebras (and their cohomology) as a non-commutative analogue of Lie conformal algebras. Leibniz conformal algebras are closely related to field algebras which are non-skew-symmetric…

In this paper we prove some general results on Leibniz 2-cocycles for simple Leibniz algebras. Applying these results we establish the triviality of the second Leibniz cohomology for a simple Leibniz algebra with coefficients in itself,…

We study non-trivial deformations of the natural imbedding of the Lie algebra $\fh_1$ of lower triangular matrices (the Heisenberg Lie algebra) into $gl(3,\mathbb{K})$, where $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $|mathbb{C}$. Our first result is the…

We generalize some of the standard homological techniques to $\cW$-algebras, and compute the semi-infinite cohomology of the $\cW_3$ algebra on a variety of modules. These computations provide physical states in $\cW_3$ gravity coupled to…

Let $\cal A$ be a Banach algebra. We study those closed ideals $I$ of $\cal A$ for which the first cohomology group of $\cal A$ with coefficients in $I^*$ is trivial; i.e. $H^1(\cal A,I^*)=\{0\}$. We investigate such closed ideals when…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra, not necessarily unital, and let $B$ be a closed subalgebra of $A$. We establish a connection between the Banach cyclic cohomology group $ {\cal{HC}}^n(A)$ of $A$ and the Banach $B$-relative cyclic cohomology…

A well-known and old result of Hazewinkel and Koszul states that the cohomology of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra is isomorphic, up to a suitable shift, to its twisted homology, a Lie-theoretical version of Poincare duality. This paper…

Let ${\rm Mold}_{n, d}$ be the moduli of rank $d$ subalgebras of ${\rm M}_n$ over ${\Bbb Z}$. For $x \in {\rm Mold}_{n, d}$, let ${\mathcal A}(x) \subseteq {\rm M}_n(k(x))$ be the subalgebra of ${\rm M}_n$ corresponding to $x$, where $k(x)$…

Let $k$ be a field, $G$ be an abelian group and $r\in \mathbb N$. Let $L$ be an infinite dimensional $k$-vector space. For any $m\in End_k(L)$ we denote by $r(m)\in [0,\infty ]$ the rank of $m$. We define by $R(G,r,k)\in [0,\infty]$ the…

We show that the class of connected, simple Lie groups that have non-vanishing third-degree continuous cohomology with trivial $\mathbb{R}$-coefficients consists precisely of all simple complex Lie groups and of…

In this work we state a result that relates the cohomology groups of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a current Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathcal{S}$, by means of a short exact sequence -- similar to the universal coefficients…

Given two unital C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, we study, when it exists, the universal unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{U}(A,B)$ generated by the coefficients of a unital $*$-homomorphism $\rho\,:\, A\rightarrow B\otimes\mathcal{U}(A,B)$. When $B$…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…

We study the Hochschild homology and cohomology of curved A-infinity algebras that arise in the study of Landau-Ginzburg (LG) models in physics. We show that the ordinary Hochschild homology and cohomology of these algebras vanish. To…

We give a classification theorem for unital separable simple nuclear $C^*$-algebras with tracial topological rank zero which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. We prove that if $A$ and $B$ are two such $C^*$-algebras and $$ (K_0(A),…
