The center is the formal internal automorphism group

Abstract

We prove that the deformation functor associated to an algebra over a sufficiently nice Koszul operad can be lifted to an operadic formal moduli problem over the Koszul dual operad. We further show that this operadic formal moduli problem corresponds to the derived center of the algebra under the operadic Lurie-Pridham correspondence. As an application, we prove that the classical Gerstenhaber algebra structure on polyvector fields of a commutative algebra agrees with the derived center of the algebra as an abelian Poisson algebra.
