Has anyone considered an alternative approach to Kontsevich formality in which the DGLA of poly-vector fields is deformed to an $L_\infty$-algebra? Some vocabulary: DGLA = Differential Graded Lie ...

Let $D_{poly}$ be the differential graded Lie algebra (dgLA) of differentiable Hochschild cochains on a manifold $\mathscr M$, endowed with the usual Gerstenhaber bracket $[-,-]_G$ and Hochschild ...

In his 1997 preprint, M. Kontsevich proved the formality of the differential graded algebra controlling deformations of the associative and commutative algebra of functions on a manifold, seen as an ...
