We give a quantum field theory interpretation of Kontsevich's deformation quantization formula for Poisson manifolds. We show that it is given by the perturbative expansion of the path integral of a simple topological bosonic open string theory. Its Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization yields a superconformal field theory. The associativity of the star product, and more generally the formality conjecture can then be understood by field theory methods. As an application, we compute the center of the deformed algebra in terms of the center of the Poisson algebra.

A-type Sigma Models from Differential Poisson Geometry
Symplectic reduction of the differential Poisson sigma model yields a restricted class of classical A-type models whose quartic curvature coupling is induced by torsion of a flat connection, with the Kodaira–Thurston ...

Fluid dynamics as intersection problem
Fluid dynamics is formulated as an intersection problem on a symplectic manifold associated with spacetime, yielding a geometric derivation of covariant hydrodynamics and extensions to multicomponent and anomalous fluids.

M. Kontsevich's graph complexes and universal structures on graded symplectic manifolds
For every d at least 2, the full Kontsevich graph complex maps injectively into the Chevalley-Eilenberg complex of the n=d-1 Schouten algebra, so its zeroth cohomology acts via L-infinity automorphisms on graded sympl...
