Prehistory:
I got my PhD in 1996 from
MIT in the subject of deformation quantization.
My advisor at MIT was
Ezra Getzler. Also
Boris Tsygan was my informal advisor.
As a postdoc I enjoyed a
fruitful scientific atmosphere at IHES
very much.
Then I left for Strasbourg to work in the group
of Jean-Louis Loday:
I wrote a couple of
reaserch proposals:
-
proposal-98 on Batalin-Vilkovisky and Leibniz algebras in differential
geometry
-
proposal-99 on Maurer-Cartan equations and structures up-to homotopy.
