Speaker James D. Lewis is Professor at University of Alberta. His current research interests are in regulators of (higher) algebraic cycles into Hodge cohomology theories (such as Beilinson's absolute Hodge cohomology). With his colleague Matt Kerr, together initially with Stefan Mueller-Stach, they provided over the course of 10 years an explicit description of the Beilinson-Bloch regulators i...
AbstractDg manifolds are a useful geometric notion which unifies many important structures such ashomotopy Lie algebras, foliations and complex manifolds. In this talk, we describe a Duflo.Kontsevich type theorem for dg manifolds. The Duflo theorem of Lie theory and the Kontsevichtheorem regarding the Hoschschild cohomology of complex manifolds can both be derived asspecial cases of this Duflo-...
