Choix des signes pour la formalité de M. Kontsevich

D. Arnal, D. Manchon and M. Masmoudi

Vol. 203 (2002), No. 1, 23–66
Abstract

The existence of star products on any Poisson manifold M is a consequence of Kontsevich’s formality theorem, the proof of which is based on an explicit formula giving a formality quasi-isomorphism in the flat case M = d. We propose here a coherent choice of orientations and signs in order to carry on Kontsevich’s proof in the d case, i.e., prove that Kontsevich’s formality quasi-isomorphism verifies indeed the formality equation with all the signs precised.
