Abstract: For a function WinmathbbC[X] on a smooth algebraic variety X with Morse-Bott critical locus YsubsetX, Kapustin, Rozansky and Saulina suggest that the associated matrix factorisation category mathrmMF(X;W) should be equivalent to the differential graded category of 2-periodic coherent complexes on Y (with a topological twist from the normal bundle of Y). I confirm their conjecture in the special case when the first neighbourhood of Y in X is split, and establish the corrected general statement. The answer involves the full Gerstenhaber structure on Hochschild cochains. This note was inspired by the failure of the conjecture, observed by Pomerleano and Preygel, when X is a general one-parameter deformation of a K3 surface Y.
