What is the relation between the Lie bracket on $TX$ as commutator and that coming from the ...

Let X be a complex manifold and $TX$ its tangent bundle. The Atiyah class $\alpha(E)\in \text{Ext}^1(E\otimes TX, E)$ for a vector bundle $E$ is defined to be the obstruction to the global existence o …

Let $X$ be an affine scheme and $\mathcal{E}$ a finitely generated locally free sheaf on $X$. It is obvious that $\mathcal{E}$ is a projective object in the category Qcoh$(X)$ since we can pass to rin …

Is $C^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^{m+n})$ a flat module over $C^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^{m})$?

For $m>0$ we consider the ring $C^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^{m})$ of smooth functions on $\mathbb{R}^{m}$. For $n>0$ we consider the projection $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}\to \mathbb{R}^{m}$ hence $C^{\infty}(\mathbb …

An example of an object in $D^b_{\text{coh}}(\mathbb{P}^2)$ which is not formal

We know that for a curve $X$, any object $\mathcal{E}^{\bullet}$ in the derived category $D^b_{\text{coh}}(X)$ is formal, i.e. $\mathcal{E}^{\bullet}$ is quasi-isomporphic to the direct sum of its co …

Is there any relation between the simplicial $S^1$ and the Hochschild homology of a noncommu...

Let $k$ be the base field and $A$ be a unital associative $k$-algebra. Let's review the Hochschild homology theory: we have the Hochschild chain comple $C_{\cdot}(A)$ where $$ C_n(A):=A^{\otimes n+1} …

Does the category of $G$-equivariant sheaves have enough injectives?

The question is related to this one. Let $k$ be a field and $X$ be a topological space. We consider Sh$(X)$, the category of sheaves of $k$-vector spaces on $X$. Let $G$ be a topological group which …

In a 1998 paper by B. Keller, the author consider the following problem in Section 1.4: Let $k$ be a commutative ring and $X$ a scheme over $k$. We can consider the cyclic homology as well as the Ho …

Do chain homotopic maps between dg-algebras induce "same" maps on dg-modules

Let $A$ and $B$ be two dg-algebras over a field $k$. Let $f, g: A\to B$ be two maps between dg-algebras. We call $f$ and $g$ chain homotopic if there exists a degree $-1$ map $h: A\to B$ such that $f- …

Is the derived category of perfect complexes idempotent complete?

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category. We call a morphism $\alpha: X\rightarrow X$ an idempotent if $\alpha^2=\alpha$ in $\mathcal{C}$. We call $\mathcal{C}$ is $\textit{idempotent complete}$ if any idempo …

The question is a special case of a previous question. Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold, then it is clear that $C^{\infty}(M)$ is a Frechet algebra with pointwise multiplication and a collection …

The meaning of a "subcomplex" of the Cartan-Eilenberg of a Lie algebra

Is the hom in derived category of a dg-algebra compatible with base field extension?

Let $k$ be a field and $A$ be an ordinary $k$-algebra. Let $M$ and $N$ be two left $A$-modules then we could consider the Ext group $\mathrm{Ext}^i_A(M,N)$ which is actually a $k$-vector space. Let $l …
