We continue with the topic from Fall 2015.
In a short series of talks I will present a brief, subjectively skewed introduction to deformation theory,
with the attempt to outline the passage from (pre)historic to (pre)modern methods. The
plan is to discuss briefly the following topics:
· Complex spaces
· Kodaira–Spencer theory
· Grothendieck–Schlessinger approach to deformations
· Deformation theory via DGLA
· The BTT theorem
· Formal Kuranishi theory
· Some aspects of dGBVA, dervied deformation theory and EDF
We run this seminar together with Hristo Iliev
