Hasse diagrams for parabolic geometries

Krump, Lukáš, Souček, Vladimír (2003)

Proceedings of the 22nd Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

The invariant differential operators on a manifold with a given parabolic structure come in two classes, standard and non-standard, and can be further subdivided into regular and singular ones. The standard regular operators come in repeated patterns, the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand sequences, described by Hasse diagrams. In this paper, the authors present an alternative characterization of Hasse diagrams, which is quite efficient in the case of low gradings. Several examples are given.

Hochschild cohomology and quantization of Poisson structures

Grabowski, Janusz (1994)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

It is well-known that the question of existence of a star product on a Poisson manifold N is open and only some partial results are known [see the author, J. Geom. Phys. 9, No. 1, 45-73 (1992; Zbl 0761.16012)].In the paper under review, the author proves the existence of the star products for the Poisson structures P of the following type P = X Y with [ X , Y ] = u X + v Y , for some u , v C ( N , ) .

Homotopy algebras via resolutions of operads

Markl, Martin (2000)

Proceedings of the 19th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

Summary: All algebraic objects in this note will be considered over a fixed field k of characteristic zero. If not stated otherwise, all operads live in the category of differential graded vector spaces over k . For standard terminology concerning operads, algebras over operads, etc., see either the original paper by J. P. May [“The geometry of iterated loop spaces”, Lect. Notes Math. 271 (1972; Zbl 0244.55009)], or an overview [J.-L. Loday, “La renaissance des opérads”, Sémin. Bourbaki 1994/95,...

Homotopy diagrams of algebras

Markl, Martin (2002)

Proceedings of the 21st Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

The paper is concerned with homotopy concepts in the category of chain complexes. It is part of the author’s program to translate [J. M. Boardman and R. M. Vogt, Homotopy invariant algebraic structures on topological spaces, Lect. Notes Math. 347, Springer-Verlag (1973; Zbl 0285.55012)] from topology to algebra.In topology the notion of operad extracts the essential algebraic information contained in the following example (endomorphism operad).The endomorphism operad X of a based space X consists...

Homotopy type of Euclidean configuration spaces

Salvatore, Paolo (2001)

Proceedings of the 20th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

Let F ( n , k ) denote the configuration space of pairwise-disjoint k -tuples of points in n . In this short note the author describes a cellular structure for F ( n , k ) when n 3 . From results in [F. R. Cohen, T. J. Lada and J. P. May, The homology of iterated loop spaces, Lect. Notes Math. 533 (1976; Zbl 0334.55009)], the integral (co)homology of F ( n , k ) is well-understood. This allows an identification of the location of the cells of F ( n , k ) in a minimal cell decomposition. Somewhat more detail is provided by the main result here,...
