Higher current algebras, homotopy Manin triples, and a rectilinear adelic complex

Abstract

The notion of a Manin triple of Lie algebras admits a generalization, to dg Lie algebras, in which various properties are required to hold only up to homotopy. This paper introduces two classes of examples of such homotopy Manin triples. These examples are associated to analogs in complex dimension two of, respectively, the punctured formal 1-disc, and the complex plane with multiple punctures. The dg Lie algebras which appear include certain higher current algebras in the sense of Faonte, Hennion and Kapranov arXiv:1701.01368. We work in a ringed space we call rectilinear space, and one of the tools we introduce is a model of the derived sections of its structure sheaf, whose construction is in the spirit of the adelic complexes for schemes due to Parshin and Beilinson.
