Statements
The authors consider deformations of algebroids stacks. First, they recall the relevant facts about category theory and cosimplicial spaces. Then, the relation between deformations and differential graded Lie algebras is explained. The authors introduce a differential graded Lie algebra naturally associated to a given algebroid stack and classify the deformations of the algebroid stack by Maurer-Cartan elements. In the case where the algebroid is a twisted form of functions (that means a gerbe is associated with it), a quasiisomorphism between the differential graded algebra controlling the deformations and the differential graded algebra of Hochschild cochains. This isomorphism is twisted by the characteristic class of the corresponding gerbe.
