A new family of algebras whose representation schemes are smooth
[Une nouvelle famille d’algèbres dont les schémas de représentations sont lisses]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 66 (2016) no. 3, pp. 1261-1277.

Dans cet article, nous fournissons une condition nécéssaire et suffisante pour la lissité du schéma qui paramétrise les représentations n-dimensionelles d’une algèbre associative, engendrée par un nombre fini d’éléments sur un corps algébriquement clos. En particulier, notre résultat implique que les points MRep A n (k) satisfaisant Ext A 2 (M,M)=0 sont réguliers. Ceci généralise aux algèbres engendrées par un nombre fini d’éléments des résultats connus sur les algèbres de dimension finie.

We give a necessary and sufficient smoothness condition for the scheme parameterizing the n-dimensional representations of a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. In particular, our result implies that the points MRep A n (k) satisfying Ext A 2 (M,M)=0 are regular. This generalizes well-known results on finite-dimensional algebras to finitely generated algebras.
