In the book "Heat kernels and Dirac operators", I found the slogan by Quillen in the Introduction: "Dirac operators are a quantization of the theory of connections, and the supertrace of the heat kern …

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold with a Poisson bracket $\{-,-\}$. Kontsevich proved that there exists a deformation quantization of $M$, i.e. let $C^{\infty}(M)[[\hbar]]=C^{\infty}(M)\otimes_{\mathbb{R}} …

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 …

For any finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we know that the universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ is a deformation of the symmetric algebra $S(\mathfrak{g})$. In fact let's define …

Let $(C^{\bullet},d)$ be a cochain complex over a field $k$ with char$k$=0. We fix an Artin local $k$-algebra $(A,m)$. A deformation of $d$ is a new operator $d+\epsilon: C^{\bullet}\otimes_k m\to C^{ …

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^ …

$\DeclareMathOperator\Spec{Spec}$Let $X$ be a compact $C^{\infty}$-manifold without boundary. Let $(A,m)$ be a Artin local $\mathbb{C}$-algebra such that $A/m\cong \mathbb{C}$. Intuitively, a deformat …

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold and $E$ be a finite dimensional holomorphic vector bundle on $X$ with a fixed $\bar{ \partial}$-connection $\bar{\partial}_E$. Now we consider a small neighborhoo …

This question is related to my previous question. Let $X$ be a compact complex manifolds and $\Delta\in \mathbb{C}^n$ be a small neighborhood of $0$. A family of deformations of $X$ over $\Delta$ is a …

This question is related to this question. Let $(C^{\bullet},d)$ be a cochain complex over a field $k$ with char$k$=0. We fix an Artin local $k$-algebra $(A,m)$. A deformation of $d$ is a new operator …
