  4. 2. Prop profiles of compatible Poisson and Nijenhuis structures

    Author : Henrik Strohmayer; Sergei Merkulov; Gilles Halbout; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Koszul duality; resolutions; props; operads; compatible structures; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : A prop profile of a differential geometric structure is a minimal resolution of an algebraic prop such that representations of this resolution are in one-to-one correspondence with structures of the given type. We begin this thesis with a detailed account of the algebraic tools necessary to construct prop profiles; we treat operads and props, and resolutions of these through Koszul duality. READ MORE

  5. 3. Wheeled Operads in Algebra, Geometry, and Quantization

  6. 4. Universal algebraic structures on polyvector fields

    Author : Johan Alm; Sergei Merkulov; Anton Alekseev; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : The theory of operads is a conceptual framework that has become a kind of universal language, relating branches of topology and algebra. This thesis uses the operadic framework to study the derived algebraic properties of polyvector fields on manifolds.The thesis is divided into eight chapters. READ MORE

  7. 5. Compactified Configuration Space of Points on a Line and Homotopies of A_ infty Morphisms

    Author : Theo Backman; Sergei Merkulov; Alexander Berglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we construct a configuration space model for a particular 2-colored dg operad encoding the structure of two A_infty algebras with two A_infty morphism and a homotopy between the morphisms. We determine the cohomology of this operad to be the well-known 2-colored operad encoding the structure of a two associative algebras and an associative algebra morphism between them. READ MORE
