Operadic structure on the Gerstenhaber-Schack complex for prestacks

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We introduce an operad which acts on the Gerstenhaber-Schack complex of a prestack as defined by Dinh Van and Lowen, and which in particular allows us to endow this complex with an underlying Linfty-structure. We make use of the operad operatornameQuilt which was used by Hawkins in order to solve the presheaf case. Due to the additional difficulty posed by the presence of twists, we have to use operatornameQuilt in a fundamentally different way (even for presheaves) in order to allow for an extension to prestacks. The resulting Linfty-algebra governs the deformation theory of the prestack.
