We define and study the theory of derivation-based connections on a recently introduced class of bimodules over an algebra which reduces to the category of modules whenever the algebra is commutative. This theory contains, in particular, a…
Survey written for the Proceedings of the AMS Meeting on Algebraic Geometry, Seattle, 2005. Based on the talk delivered at this occasion, but a few comments on recent developments are added.
It is a basic introduction to differential graded Lie algebras, Maurer-Cartan equation and associated deformation functors.
The present review aims both to offer some motivations and mathematical prerequisites for a study of NCG from the viewpoint of a theoretical physicist and to show a few applications to matrix theory and results obtained. Lectures given by…
We construct functions and tensors on noncommutative spacetime by systematically twisting the corresponding commutative structures. The study of the deformed diffeomorphisms (and Poincare) Lie algebra allows to construct a noncomutative…
This is a survey of current and recent works on deformation quantization and index theorems.
We develop the notion of deformations using a valuation ring as ring of coefficients. This permits to consider in particular the classical Gerstenhaber deformations of associative or Lie algebras as infinitesimal deformations and to solve…
Contrary to the expected behavior, we show the existence of non-invertible deformations of Lie algebras which can generate invariants for the coadjoint representation, as well as delete cohomology with values in the trivial or adjoint…
This is a brief introduction to the world of Noncommutative Algebra aimed at advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students.
Algebraic scheme for constructing deformations of structure constants for associative algebras generated by a deformation driving algebras (DDAs) is discussed. An ideal of left divisors of zero plays a central role in this construction.…
An algebraic deformation theory of algebras over the Landweber-Novikov algebra is obtained.
We study non-trivial deformations of the natural action of the Lie algebra $\mathrm{Vect}({\mathbb R}^n)$ on the space of differential forms on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We calculate abstractions for integrability of infinitesimal multi-parameter…
The deformation theory of Lie-Yamaguti algebras is developed by choosing a suitable cohomology. The relationship between the deformation and the obstruction of Lie-Yamaguti algebras is obtained.
These lecture notes are based on an introductory course given by the author at the summer school "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at MSRI in June 2012. The emphasis throughout is on examples to illustrate the many different facets of…
This note is supposed to answer some questions on deformation theory in derived algebraic geometry. We show that derived algebraic geometry allows for a geometrical interpretation of the full cotangent complex and gives a natural setting…
We elaborate the generalizations of the approach to gauge-invariant deformations of the gauge theories developed in our previous work [1]. In the given paper we construct the exact transformations defying the gauge-invariant deformed theory…
These notes are an expanded version of the author's lectures at the graduate workshop "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in June 2012. The main topics discussed are Artin-Schelter regular…
These are notes of a mini-course given at Dennisfest in June 2001. The goal of these notes is to give a self-contained survey of deformation quantization, operad theory, and graph homology. Some new results related to "String Topology" and…
These are expanded lecture notes of a mini-course whose objectives were to introduce the basic concepts, constructions and techniques of noncommutative geometry, as well as their uses as a framework for modelling quantum spacetime. Key…
We compute the noncommutative deformations of a family of modules over the first Weyl algebra. This example shows some important properties of noncommutative deformation theory that separates it from commutative deformation theory.
