Topic:
Defomation theory
Description:
Abstract:
I will explain an interpretation of Illusie's results on
the deformation theory of commutative rings in terms of the
cohomological classification of torsors and gerbes. Then I'll show how
this point of view can be used to solve some other deformation
problems. I'll also indicate some deformation problems that I don't
know how to approach this way.
