The shifted cotangent polyvector-field conjecture

About 10 years old · traced to

Let XX be an Artin stack and let nn be an integer. The shifted cotangent stack T∗[n]X\boldsymbol{T}^*[n]X has a canonical nn-shifted symplectic structure, and its functions identify with the graded commutative algebra

Γ(X,S(TX[−n])).\Gamma\big(X,S(\mathbb{T}_X[-n])\big).

Polyvector-field conjecture. The resulting Pn+1gr\mathbb{P}_{n+1}^{gr}-algebra structure on Γ(X,S(TX[−n]))\Gamma\big(X,S(\mathbb{T}_X[-n])\big) is equivalent to the Pn+1gr\mathbb{P}_{n+1}^{gr}-algebra Pol(X,n)\mathbf{Pol}(X,n) of nn-shifted polyvector fields from Pantev–Toën–Vaquié–Vezzosi.

This conjecture identifies the Poisson algebra induced by the shifted symplectic structure on a shifted cotangent stack with the intrinsic algebra of shifted polyvector fields. Its resolution is not supplied in the source.
