Question about a remark on quantization of Coulomb branches

I will follow the definition of Coulomb branches of $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ gauge theories from the paper by Braverman, Finkelberg and Nakajima, Towards a mathematical definition of Coulomb branches of 3-...

Obstruction to deforming vector bundles

Let $X$ be a complex algebraic variety and let $D$ denote any $\mathbb C[[h]]$-deformation of $\mathcal O_X$. Suppose that $D$ is trivial. Then it is well-known that obstructions to deforming any $X$-...

Bi-differential operators in the definition of star product in deformation quantisation

Let $X$ be an (affine) Poisson variety (not necessarily smooth) over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 (such as $\mathbb{C}$), denote $\mathcal{O}(X)$ its ring of functions and $\{-,-\}...

Polarizations in algebraic and symplectic geometry

In context of Abelian varieties there are a couple of equivalent ways to introduce the polarization of a algebraic variety. One way is to choose a line bundle $\mathcal{L}$ which satisfies certain ...

Kontsevich weights in the complex algebraic setting

In Kontsevich's Deformation quantization of Poisson manifolds, he gives an explicit formula for the star product: $$ f \star g = fg + \sum_{n=1}^\infty \hbar^n \sum_{\Gamma \in G_n} w_\Gamma B_{\Gamma}...

The function algebra $C^{\infty}(M\#N)$ of the connected sum of two spaces

Operations such as taking union or Cartesian products of spaces have direct analogues in term of algebra of functions on them (direct sum and tensor product, respectively), my question is: Is there ...
