The Kashiwara–Vergne (KV) conjecture states the existence of solutions of a pair of equations related with the Campbell–Baker–Hausdorff series. It was solved by Meinrenken and the first author over ℝ, and in a formal version, by two of the authors over a field of characteristic 0. In this paper, we give a simple and explicit formula for a map from the set of Drinfeld associators to the set of solutions of the formal KV equations. Both sets are torsors under the actions of prounipotent groups…

The Kashiwara-Vergne (KV) conjecture is a property of the Campbell-Hausdorff series put forward in 1978. It has been settled in the positive by E. Meinrenken and the first author in 2006. In this

We prove an estimate on denominators of rational Drinfeld associators. To obtain this result, we prove the corresponding estimate for the p-adic associators stable under the action of suitable

The Turaev cobracket, a loop operation introduced by V. Turaev, which measures self-intersection of a loop on a surface, is a modification of a path operation introduced earlier by Turaev himself, as

Let $G$ be a finite-dimensional Poisson algebraic, Lie or formal group. We show that the center of the quantization of $G$ provided by an Etingof-Kazhdan functor is isomorphic as an algebra to the
Galois Action on Knots II: Proalgebraic String Links and Knots
We discuss an action of the Grothendieck-Teichm\"{u}ller proalgebraic group on the linear span of proalgebraic tangles, oriented tangles completed by a filtration of Vassiliev. The action yields a
M. Kontsevich's graph complexes and universal structures on graded symplectic manifolds I
In the formulation of his celebrated Formality conjecture, M. Kontsevich introduced a universal version of the deformation theory for the Schouten algebra of polyvector fields on affine manifolds.
Algebraic relations, Taylor coefficients of hyperlogarithms and images by Frobenius - III : Reindexation of the pro-unipotent fundamental groupoid of $\mathbb{P}^{1} - Z$
We widen our geometric framework that enables to study the properties of multiple harmonic sums, and to understand them in terms of motives and periods. We define what we call a reindexation of the
