Differential Graded Cohomology and Lie algebras of Holomorphic Vector Fields

preprint2000arXivOpen access

Abstract

The Dolbeault resolution of the sheaf of holomorphic vector fields LieLie on a complex manifold MM relates LieLie to a sheaf of differential graded Lie algebras, known as the Frölicher-Nijenhuis algebra gg. We establish - following B. L. Feigin - an isomorphism between the differential graded cohomology of the space of global sections of gg and the hypercohomology of the sheaf of continuous cochain complexes of LieLie. We calculate this cohomology up to the singular cohomology of some mapping space. We use and generalize results of N. Kawazumi on complex Gelfand-Fuks cohomology. Applications are - again following B. L. Feigin - in conformal field theory, and in the theory of deformations of complex structures. In an erratum to this paper, we admit that the sheaf of continuous cochains of a sheaf of vector fields with values in the ground fields does not make much sense. The most important cochains (like evaluations in a point or integrations over the manifold) do not come from sheaf homomorphisms. The main result of the above article (theorem 7) remains true.
