Deformation-theoretic conjectures for geometric n-stacks
Deformation-theoretic conjectures for geometric n-stacks
Let be a geometric -stack, and let . Let denote the -category of deformations of parametrized by . Let be the tangent spectrum of , let be its -fold delooping, and let denote sections over . Deformation-theoretic conjecture. (1) The -groupoid has a structure of a spectrum; that is, it is the -fold looping of an -groupoid. (2) If is a smooth geometric -stack, there is a natural equivalence of -categories
For a smooth scheme, this reduces to . (3) In general, there is a cotangent complex that is a spectrum over , and
These statements aim to provide the expected deformation theory for geometric stacks, extending the classical cotangent complex for schemes and the cotangent complex of Laumon–Moret-Bailly for . The source gives no evidence of resolution.
