Abstract

We study the deformation complex of a canonical morphism ii from the properad of (degree shifted) Lie bialgebras Liebc,d\mathbf{Lieb}_{c,d} to its polydifferential version D(Liebc,d)\mathcal{D}(\mathbf{Lieb}_{c,d}) and show that it is quasi-isomorphic to the oriented graph complex GCc+d+1or\mathbf{GC}^{\text{or}}_{c+d+1}, up to one rescaling class. As the latter complex is quasi-isomorphic to the original graph complex GCc+d\mathbf{GC}_{c+d}, we conclude that the space of homotopy non-trivial infinitesimal deformations of the canonical map ii can be identified with the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller Lie algebra grt\mathfrak{grt}; moreover, every such an infinitesimal deformation extends to a genuine deformation of the canonical morphism ii from Liebc,d\mathbf{Lieb}_{c,d} to D(Liebc,d)\mathcal{D}(\mathbf{Lieb}_{c,d}). The full deformation complex is described with the help of a new graph complex of so called entangled graphs, whose suitable quotient complex is shown to contain the tensor product H(GCc)H(GCd)H(\mathbf{GC}_c) \otimes H(\mathbf{GC}_d) of cohomologies of Kontsevich graph complexes GCcGCd\mathbf{GC}_c \otimes \mathbf{GC}_d.
