We study deformations of complex projective varieties that are homotopically or homologically trivial. We formulate several conjectures and give some examples and partial answers.

We study perturbations of linear differential equations, deriving explicit series solutions, using Dyson-type expansions. We analyze the monodromy of deformed solutions in a number of examples, and relate this to cocycles in a cohomological…

We study deformations of closed string theory by primary fields of conformal weight $(1,1)$, using conformal techniques on the complex plane. A canonical surface integral formalism for computing commutators in a non-holomorphic theory is…

We review the notion of the deformation of the exterior wedge product. This allows us to construct the deformation of the algebra of exterior forms over a vector space and also over an arbitrary manifold. We relate this approach to the…

We develop a general incremental framework for hyperelastic solids whose surfaces exhibit both stretch-dependent and curvature-dependent elastic behavior. Building upon a variational formulation of curvature-dependent surface elasticity, we…

This paper gives a foundation of log smooth deformation theory. We study the infinitesimal liftings of log smooth morphisms and show that the log smooth deformation functor has a representable hull. This deformation theory gives, for…

I discuss the relation of Hochschild cohomology to the physical states in the closed topological string. This allows a notion of deformation intrinsic to the derived category. I use this to identify deformations of a quiver gauge theory…

In this paper we develop the basic infinitesimal deformation theory of abelian categories. This theory yields a natural generalization of the well-known deformation theory of algebras developed by Gerstenhaber. As part of our deformation…

Following ideas from a preprint of the second author, see [2], we investigate relations of dynamical Teichmuller spaces with dynamical objects. We also establish some connections with the theory of deformations of inverse limits and…

Soft porous materials, such as biological tissues and soils, are exposed to periodic deformations in a variety of natural and industrial contexts. The detailed flow and mechanics of these deformations have not yet been systematically…

We analyse the deformations of a cylindrical elastic body resulting from displacements in a varying gravitational field.

We give a brief overview of the current state of the study of the deformation theory of Kleinian groups. The topics covered include the definition of the deformation space of a Kleinian group and of several important subspaces; a discussion…

This work is devoted to study the deformation of spacetime metrics as generalized conformal transformations. Some applications are also considered, in particular the equations of motion in deformed spacetime are studied.

A notion of stochastic deformation is introduced and the corresponding algebraic deformation procedure is developed. This procedure is analogous to the deformation of an algebra of observables like deformation quantization, but for an…

We give an exposition of the formal aspects of deformation theory in the language of fibered categories, instead of the more traditional one of functors. The main concepts are that of tangent space to a deformation problem, obstruction…

This is an introduction to an algebraic construction of a gravity theory on noncommutative spaces which is based on a deformed algebra of (infinitesimal) diffeomorphisms. We start with some fundamental ideas and concepts of noncommutative…

Various problems of geometry, topology and dynamical systems on surfaces as well as some questions concerning one-dimensional dynamical systems lead to the study of closed surfaces endowed with a flat metric with several cone-type…

When a set of particles are moving in a potential field, two aspects are concerned: 1) the relative motion of particle in spatial domain; 2) the particle velocity variations in time domain. The difficulty on treating the systems is…

We report the counter-intuitive instability of charged elastic rings, and the persistence of sinusoidal deformations in the lowest-energy configurations by the combination of high-precision numerical simulations and analytical perturbation…

The hydrodynamic theory of active nematics has been often used to describe the spatio-temporal dynamics of cell flows and motile topological defects within soft confluent tissues. Those theories, however, often rely on the assumption that…
