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 …

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

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…

Defines Floer homology with DG coefficients for symplectic manifolds.

Curved $L_\infty$ spaces form a category of fibrant objects.

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…

We link Ginzburg algebras to Weinstein manifolds and Legendrian knots.

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.…

Develops $L_\infty$ spaces over dg manifolds and establishes an equivalence with $L_\infty$ algebroids.

Given any pair $(L,A)$ of Lie algebroids, we construct a differential graded manifold $(L[1]\oplus L/A,Q)$, which we call Fedosov dg manifold. We prove that the cohomological vector field $Q$ constructed on $L[1]\oplus L/A$ by the Fedosov iteration method arises as a byproduct of the Poincaré--Birkhoff--Witt map establ…

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…

Develops Morse homology with DG coefficients for manifolds and spaces.

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…

New algebraic structure derived from Kähler manifolds.

Inspired by a work of Kapranov, we define the notion of Dolbeault complex of the formal neighborhood of a closed embedding of complex manifolds. This construction allows us to study coherent sheaves over the formal neighborhood via complex analytic approach, as in the case of usual complex manifolds and their Dolbeault…

In this paper, we study the Atiyah class and Todd class of the DG manifold $(F[1],d_F)$ corresponding to an integrable distribution $F \subset T_{\mathbb{K}} M = TM \otimes_{\mathbb{R}} \mathbb{K}$, where $\mathbb{K} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. We show that these two classes are canonically identical to those of the…

Generalizes Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for curved local systems.

New $L_\infty$ liftings derived from Chern-Simons classes for coherent sheaves.

Let $(\mathcal{M}, Q)$ be a dg manifold. The space of vector fields with shifted degrees $(\mathcal{X}(\mathcal{M})[-1], L_Q)$ is a Lie algebra object in the homology category $\mathrm{H}((C^{\infty}_{\mathcal{M}},Q)\mathrm{-}\mathbf{mod})$ of dg modules over $(\mathcal{M},Q)$, the Atiyah class $α_{\mathcal{M}}$ being …

Let $M^{n+1}$ be an orientable compact Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature. We prove that the Almgren-Pitts width of $M^{n+1}$ is achieved by an orientable index $1$ minimal hypersurface with multiplicity $1$ and optimal regularity. This extends to dimensions $n+1\geq 8$ the results of Ketover-Marques-Nev…

The study extends a theorem to bundles on manifolds with boundaries.

Following the previous authors works (joint with I.A.Dynnikov) we develop a theory of the discrete analogs of the differential-geometrical (DG) connections in the triangulated manifolds. We study a nonstandard discretization based on the interpretation of DG Connection as linear first order (''triangle'') difference eq…

This is the second in a series of five papers math.DG/0211294, math.DG/0302355, math.DG/0302356, math.DG/0303272 studying special Lagrangian submanifolds (SL m-folds) X in (almost) Calabi-Yau m-folds M with singularities x_1,...,x_n locally modelled on special Lagrangian cones C_1,...,C_n in C^m with isolated singulari…

Let M be a hypercomplex Hermitian manifold, (M,I) the same manifold considered as a complex Hermitian with a complex structure I induced by the quaternions. The standard linear-algebraic construction produces a canonical nowhere degenerate (2,0)-form on (M,I). It is well known that M is hyperkaehler if and only if the …

We introduce the notions of Atiyah class and Todd class of a differential graded vector bundle with respect to a differential graded Lie algebroid. We prove that the space of vector fields on a dg-manifold with homological vector field $Q$ admits a structure of L-infinity algebra with the Lie derivative $L_Q$ as unary …

We prove that to every inclusion $A\hookrightarrow L$ of Lie algebroids over the same base manifold $M$ corresponds a Kapranov dg-manifold structure on $A[1]\oplus L/A$, which is canonical up to isomorphism. As a consequence, $Γ(Λ^\bullet A^\vee\otimes L/A)$ carries a canonical $L_\infty[1]$ algebra structure whose una…

We prove that the moduli space of solutions to the PU(2) monopole equations is a smooth manifold of the expected dimension for simple, generic parameters such as (and including) the Riemannian metric on the given four-manifold. In a previous article, dg-ga/9710032, we proved transversality using an extension of the hol…

New approach to principal groupoid bundles with connections using dg-Lie groupoids.

We establish the existence of the asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel associated to the spin-c Dirac operators acting on high tensor powers of line bundles with non-degenerate mixed curvature (negative and positive eigenvalues) by extending the paper " On the asymptotic expansion of Bergman kernel " (math.DG/040…

We study the construction and classification of weakly Bochner-flat (WBF) metrics (i.e., Kahler metrics with coclosed Bochner tensor) on compact complex manifolds. A Kahler metric is WBF if and only if its `normalized' Ricci form is a hamiltonian 2-form: such 2-forms were introduced and studied in previous papers in th…

We consider the connected-sum method of constructing compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G_2 developed in math.DG/0012189. The method requires pairs of projective complex threefolds endowed with anticanonical K3 divisors, the latter `matching' via a certain non-holomorphic map. Suitable examples of threefolds …

This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of math.DG/9810146. Based on this investigation we provide proofs of the Hodge theoretic results …

Solved Gromoll-Walschap's conjecture on negative curvature manifolds.

We describe an $A_\infty$-quasi-equivalence of dg-categories between the first authors' $\mathcal{P}_{\mathcal{A}}$ ---the category of category of prefect $A^0$-modules with flat $\Z$-connection, corresponding to the de Rham dga $\mathcal{A}$ of a compact manifold $M$--- and the dg-category of \emph{infinity-local syst…

The paper studies deformations of Nijenhuis structures in Lie algebras and algebroids.

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…

Authors prove de Rham cohomology of Poisson and Jacobi manifolds is trivial.

In this expository paper, we explain a formula for the multiplicities of the index of an equivariant transversally elliptic operator on a $G$-manifold. The formula is a sum of integrals over blowups of the strata of the group action and also involves eta invariants of associated elliptic operators. Among the applicatio…
