This is a paper in a series systematically to study toroidal vertex algebras. Previously, a theory of toroidal vertex algebras and modules was developed and toroidal vertex algebras were explicitly associated to toroidal Lie algebras. In…

This paper considers the natural geometric structure on the moduli space of deformations of a compact special Lagrangian submanifold $L^n$ of a Calabi-Yau manifold. From the work of McLean this is a smooth manifold with a natural $L^2$…

Recall that the moduli space of smooth (that is, stable) cubic curves is isomorphic to the quotient of the upper half plane by the group of fractional linear transformations with integer coefficients. We establish a similar result for…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the cohomology of various algebras over an operad of moduli spaces including the cohomology of conformal field theories (CFT's) and vertex operator algebras (VOA's). This cohomology theory produces…

The work is devoted to the variety of $2$-dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field. Firstly, we classify such algebras modulo isomorphism. Then we describe the degenerations and the closures of principal algebra series in the…

We regard the classification of rational homotopy types as a problem in algebraic deformation theory: any space with given cohomology is a perturbation, or deformation, of the "formal" space with that cohomology. The classifying space is…

The modular class of a regular foliation is a cohomological obstruction to the existence of a volume form transverse to the leaves which is invariant under the flow of the vector fields of the foliation. By drawing on the relationship…

Let $\L_m$ be the scheme of the laws defined by the Jacobi's identities on $\K^m$ with $\K$ a field. A deformation of $\g\in\L_m$, parametrized by a local $\K$-algebra $\A$, is a local $\K$-algebra morphism from the local ring of $\L_m$ at…

This paper proposes a new notion of smoothness of algebras, termed differential smoothness, that combines the existence of a top form in a differential calculus over an algebra together with a strong version of the Poincar\'e duality…

We determine the moduli space of metric 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension up to 6. This space is homeomorphic to a cone over a 4-dimensional contractible simplicial complex.

In this work we consider deformations of Leibniz algebras over a field of characteristic zero. The main problem in deformation theory is to describe all non-equivalent deformations of a given object. We give a method to solve this problem…

We study a twisted version of module algebras called module Hom-algebras. It is shown that module algebras deform into module Hom-algebras via endomorphisms. As an example, we construct certain q-deformations of the usual sl(2)-action on…

We consider degenerations of all simple Lie algebras of exceptional type obtained by embedding into affine Lie algebras. We give a filtration to consider this as an abelianisation of the original Lie algebra. We then show that the…

Given a 4d ${\mathcal N}=2$ supersymmetric theory with an ${\mathcal N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric surface defect, a marginal perturbation of the bulk theory induces a complex structure deformation of the defect moduli space. We describe a…

We describe a kind of deformation of the anti-DeRham algebra on a Calabi-Yau manifold $X$. These are in 1-1 correspondence with the total cohomology $\oplus H^i (X, \C)$.

The strong homotopy Lie algebra, controlling simultaneous deformations of a morphism of associative algebras and its domain and codomain is constructed. Isomorphism of the cohomology of this strong homotopy Lie algebra with the classical…

In this paper we determine the moduli space, up to isometric automorphism, of left-invariant metrics on a $6$-dimensional Lie group $H$, such that its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ admits a complex structure and has first Betti number equal to…

Motivated by applications in moduli theory, we introduce a flexible and powerful language for expressing lower bounds on relative dimension of morphisms of schemes, and more generally of algebraic stacks. We show that the theory is robust…

Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

This article explores some simple examples of L-infinity algebras and the construction of miniversal deformations of these structures. Among other things, it is shown that there are two families of nonequivalent L-infinity structures on a…
