Abstract: Rota-Baxter systems are modified by the inclusion of a curvature term. It is shown that, subject to specific properties of the curvature form, curved Rota-Baxter systems (A,R,S,omega) induce associative and (left) pre-Lie products on the algebra A. It is also shown that if both Rota-Baxter operators coincide with each other and the curvature is A-bilinear, then the (modified by R) Hochschild cohomology ring over A is a curved differential graded algebra.


The paper under review introduces and studies curved Rota-Baxter systems. A curved Rota-Baxter system is a family \((A,R,S,\omega)\), where \(A\) is a \(K\)-associative algebra over a commutative ring \(K\), \(R\) and \(S\) are operators on \(A\) and \(\omega\) is a \(K\)-bilinear map from \(A\times A\) to \(A\) such that for any \(a,b\in A\), we have \[ R(a)R(b)=R(R(a)b+aS(b))+\omega(a\otimes b),\text{ and } S(a)S(b)=S(R(a)b+aS(b))+\omega(a\otimes b). \] In the case that \(R=S\) and \(\omega(a\otimes b)=\lambda R(ab)\), it reduces to a Rota-Baxter algebra of weight \(\lambda\). The paper gives sufficient and necessary conditions on \(\omega\) for the product \(*\) given by \[ a^\ast b=R(a)b+aS(b) \] to be associative (Proposition 2.1), and the product \(\circ\) given by \[ a\circ b=R(a)b-aS(b) \] to be pre-Lie (Proposition 4.1). In addition, the author proves in Proposition 3.1 that if \(R=S\) and \(\omega\) is an \(A\)-bilinear map, the Hochschild cohomology ring over \(A\) is a curved differential graded algebra with curvature \(\omega\).
