Square-zero extensions mod $p^n$
$\DeclareMathOperator\LMod{LMod}\DeclareMathOperator\Mod{Mod}\DeclareMathOperator\Sp{Sp}$A square-zero extensions of rings is, conceptually, a map of rings $R \to A$ such that any two elements in the ...

What is the relationship between Goodwillie calculus and derived deformation theory?
Goodwillie calculus is a way of understanding a functor $F$ in terms of its Goodwillie tower, a tower whose limit approximates $F$, whose layers can be understood in terms of stable data. Derived ...

Is Koszul duality a deformation theory when not over a field?
Let $k$ be a field. Then Thm 15.3.3.1 of Lurie's SAG says that Koszul duality, regarded as a contravariant endofunctor $\bar D$ of augmented $E_n$-algebras over $k$, is a deformation theory in the ...

Building conilpotent coalgebras from co-square-zero-extensions
Let $\mathrm{K}$ be a field of char. 0.
Given a chain complex $\mathrm{X} $ over $\mathrm{K}$ denote $\mathrm{E}(\mathrm{X})$ the co-square-zero-extension on $\mathrm{X}, $ i.e. the
cocommutative ...

Pro-representability of deformation functor associated to a DG Lie algebra
Edit : There are several satisfying proofs in the case each $L^i$ is finite-dimensional. It is proven (for example, Hinich DG coalgebras as formal stacks) that for $A$ : local Artin ring then $\...

Intrinsic formality versus rigidity of a differential graded Lie algebra
Let $\mathfrak g:=(V,d,[\cdot,\cdot])$ be a differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA) where $d$ is the zero differential.
Intrinsic formality: The DGLA $\mathfrak g$ will be said intrinsically formal ...

Transformation of operad algebras
Not a good title.
Suppose we have two dg symmetric Koszul operads, say $O_1$ and $O_2$. Then their (homotopy) algebras over a dg vector space $V$ are (equivalent to) twisting morphisms
$$f\in TW(O^*...

How to define the equivalence of Maurer-Cartan elements in an $L_{\infty}$-algebra?
First let $L^{\bullet}$ be a pro-nilpotent differential graded Lie algebra (dgla). We have the set of Maurer-Cartan elements in $L^{\bullet}$ ($MC(L^{\bullet})$) which are $\alpha \in L^1$ such that ...

Unobstructedness of braided deformations of symmetric monoidal categories in higher category theory
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and $\mathcal{C}$ be a $k$-linear additive symmetric monoidal category. A braided deformation of $\mathcal{C}$ over a local artin ring $R$ with residue ...

What is the definition of "the $L_\infty$ part of a $G_\infty$ morphism"?
We know that in Tamarkin's proof of Kontsevich's formality theorem, he defined the $G_\infty$ structure on the Hochschild cochain complex $C^\cdot(A,A)$ and constructed a $G_\infty$ morphism from $HH^\...

Deformation theory of co-$A_\infty$ structures.
The following question is related to my previous post on co-$A_\infty$ spaces (co-$A_\infty$ spaces), but goes in a somewhat different direction.
Some Background:
In trying to classify $A_\infty$ ...

Why do my quantum group books avoid homotopical language?
I am sitting on my carpet surrounded by books about quantum groups, and the only categorical concept they discuss are the representation categories of quantum groups.
Many notes closer to "Kontsevich ...
