Resumen de Deformation quantization of gerbes

Paul Bressler, Alexander Gorokhovsky, Ryszard Nest, Boris Tsygan

• This is the first in a series of articles devoted to deformation quantization of gerbes. We introduce basic definitions, interpret deformations of a given stack as Maurer¿Cartan elements of a differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA), and classify deformations of a given gerbe in terms of Maurer¿Cartan elements of the DGLA of Hochschild cochains twisted by the cohomology class of the gerbe. We also classify all deformations of a given gerbe on a symplectic manifold, as well as provide a deformation-theoretic interpretation of the first Rozansky¿Witten class.
