Conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. On the other hand, it is an adequate tool for the study of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras satisfying the locality property. The main examples of such Lie algebras are those ``based'' on the punctured complex plane, like the Virasoro algebra and loop algebras. In the present paper we develop a cohomology theory of conformal algebras with coefficients in an arbitrary module. It possesses standard properties of cohomology theories; for example, it describes extensions and deformations. We offer explicit computations for most of the important examples.

  1. Double Poisson (vertex) algebra cohomology

    math.RT 2025-09 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    The authors define a completed double Poisson cohomology valid for all double Poisson brackets, and introduce three cohomology theories for double Poisson vertex algebras, with representation functor compatibility.
