Jacobi complexes on the Ran space
  We study local theory of moduli schemes using the framework of the Ran space. With the help of the study of sheaves and complexes over the Ran space by Beilinson and Drinfeld in their theory of chiral algebras, we revisit Ran's works on the Jacobi complexes (the Chevalley complexes for sheaves of Lie algebras on the Ran space), the universal deformation rings of moduli problems, the higher Kodaira-Spencer maps, and construction of Hitchin-type flat connections. We give rigorous treatments in the algebraic setting, which seems to be new.
