The curvature problem for formal and infinitesimal deformations

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We interpret all Maurer-Cartan elements in the formal Hochschild complex of a small dg category which is cohomologically bounded above in terms of torsion Morita deformations. This solves the "curvature problem", i.e. the phenomenon that such Maurer-Cartan elements naturally parameterize curved A_infinity deformations. In the infinitesimal setup, we show how (n+1)-th order curved deformations give rise to n-th order uncurved Morita deformations.
