Categorifies Chern-Weil theory for infinite local systems.

In this paper, we relate Lie algebroids to Costello's version of derived geometry. For instance, we show that each Lie algebroid $L$-and the natural generalization to dg Lie algebroids-provides an (essentially unique) $L_\infty$ space. More precisely, we construct a faithful functor from the category of Lie algebroids …

Constructs dg categories from surfaces using Khovanov homology.

We link Ginzburg algebras to Weinstein manifolds and Legendrian knots.

Given a smooth projective toric variety $X_Σ$ of complex dimension $n$, Fang-Liu-Treumann-Zaslow \cite{FLTZ} showed that there is a quasi-embedding of the differential graded (dg) derived category of coherent sheaves $Coh(X_Σ)$ into the dg derived category of constructible sheaves on a torus $Sh(T^n, Λ_Σ)$. Recently, K…

We construct a categorification of the maximal commutative subalgebra of the type $A$ Hecke algebra. Specifically, we propose a monoidal functor from the (symmetric) monoidal category of coherent sheaves on the flag Hilbert scheme to the (non-symmetric) monoidal category of Soergel bimodules. The adjoint of this functo…

We define the Hopf superalgebra U_T sl(1,1), which is a variant of the quantum supergroup U_q sl(1,1), and its tensor product representations V_1^{\otimes n} for n>0. We construct families of DG algebras A, B and R_n, and consider the DG categories DGP(A), DGP(B) and DGP(R_n), which are full DG subcategories of the cat…

This paper upgrades instanton TQFT to infinity-categories for better simplification.

Develops Morse homology with DG coefficients for manifolds and spaces.

We prove a categorified version of the Poincaré lemma. The natural setting for our result is that of $\infty$-local systems. More precisely, we show that any smooth homotopy between maps $f$ and $g$ induces an $\mathsf{A}_\infty$-natural transformation between the corresponding pullback functors. This transformation is…

The paper develops spectral networks in symplectic topology and their relation to Lagrangian fillings.

The paper studies formal geometry of dg manifolds and proves isomorphism of their calculi.

We study dg-manifolds which are R[2]-bundles over R[1]-bundles over manifolds, we calculate its symmetries, its derived symmetries and we introduce the concept of T-dual dg-manifolds. Within this framework we construct the T-duality map as a degree -1 map between the cohomologies of the T-dual dg-manifolds and we show …

Paper computes Atiyah class for DG manifolds of amplitude +1.

We survey what is known about singularities of special Lagrangian submanifolds (SL m-folds) in (almost) Calabi-Yau manifolds. The bulk of the paper summarizes the author's five papers math.DG/0211294, math.DG/0211295, math.DG/0302355, math.DG/0302356, math.DG/0303272 on SL m-folds X with isolated conical singularities.…

For every Lie pair $(L,A)$ of algebroids we construct a dg-manifold structure on the $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifold $\mathcal M=L[1]\oplus L/A$ such that the inclusion $ι: A[1] \to \mathcal M$ and the projection $p:\mathcal M\to L[1]$ are morphisms of dg-manifolds. The vertical tangent bundle $T^p\mathcal M$ then inherit…

New dg-algebras link graph colorings to sheaves.

In this article we show that some of the recent results of Marino, Moore, and Peradze (math.DG/9812042, hep-th/9812055) -- in particular their conjecture that all closed, smooth four-manifolds with b_2^+ > 1 (and Seiberg-Witten simple type) are of `superconformal simple type' -- can be understood using a simple mathema…

We find a minimal differential graded (dg) operad whose generic representations in $R^n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with formal germs of those endomorphisms of the tangent bundle to $R^n$ which satisfy the Nijenhuis integrability condition. This operad is of a surprisingly simple origin -- it is the cobar constru…

Study Hochschild cohomology of dg manifolds linked to integrable distributions.

Defines Floer homology with DG coefficients for symplectic manifolds.

Manifold calculus of functors, due to M. Weiss, studies contravariant functors from the poset of open subsets of a smooth manifold to topological spaces. We introduce "multivariable" manifold calculus of functors which is a generalization of this theory to functors whose domain is a product of categories of open sets. …

Study on polynomiality and outer nature of functors from Jacobi diagrams to group homomorphisms.

A modular functor is constructed from non-semisimple 3d TFTs.

We study the dg-Lie algebra f_n generated by the coefficients of the universal translation invariant flat dg-connection on the n-dimensional affine space. We describe its "semiabelianization" (in particular, the universal quotient which is a crossed module of Lie algebras) in terms of closed differential forms of arbit…

Paper constructs infinitely many tangent functors on diffeological spaces.

This paper proves equivalence between derived manifolds and differential graded manifolds.

The category of small covariant functors from simplicial sets to simplicial sets supports the projective model structure. In this paper we construct various localizations of the projective model structure and also give a variant for functors from simplicial sets to spectra. We apply these model categories in the study …

Undecidability proved for DG algebras problems.

A theory of dg schemes is developed so that it becomes a homotopy site, and the corresponding infinity category of stacks is equivalent to the infinity category of stacks, as constructed by Toen and Vezzosi, on the site of dg algebras whose cohomologies have finitely many generators in each degree. Stacks represented b…

The study explores how different Grothendieck topologies and functors between categories preserve locality.

We study the functor of points and the local functor of points (here called the Weil--Berezin functor) for smooth and holomorphic supermanifolds, providing characterization theorems and fully discussing the representability issues. In the end we examine applications to differential calculus including the transitivity t…

In terms of category theory, the Gromov homotopy principle for a set valued functor $F$ asserts that the functor $F$ can be induced from a homotopy functor. Similarly, we say that the bordism principle for an abelian group valued functor $F$ holds if the functor $F$ can be induced from a (co)homology functor. We examin…
