Linear deformations of a morphism between stacks
Given smooth algebraic stacks $\mathcal{X}$, $\mathcal{Y}$ what are the linear deformations $\operatorname{Def}^1(f: \mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{Y})$ of a morphism $f:\mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{Y}$?

Deformation theory of stacks and the tangent complex
On a smooth stack X one can construct the two-term tangent complex $T_X \in D(X)$, as in Sam Raskin's notes (https://people.math.harvard.edu/~gaitsgde/grad_2009/SeminarNotes/Sept22(Dmodstack1).pdf).
I ...

derived schemes and perfect obstruction theories
In a survey article of Toen's it is claimed that that there is forgetful $\infty$-functor between the $\infty$-category of derived schemes locally of finite presentation over a field $k$ and the $\...

Deforming curves to other curves over the field of rational numbers
Let $X$ and $Y$ be smooth projective geometrically connected curves over $k$ of genus $g$ at least two.
If $k$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, there exists a connected ...

algebraic group G vs. algebraic stack BG
I've gathered that it's "common knowledge" (at least among people who think about such things) that studying a (smooth) algebraic group G, as an algebraic group, is in some sense the same as studying ...
