Abstract

One of the questions investigated in deformation theory is to determine to which algebras can a given associative algebra be deformed. In this paper we investigate a different but related question, namely: for a given associative finite-dimensional C-algebra A, find algebras N, which can be deformed to A. We develop a simple method that produces associative and flat deformations to investigate this question. As an application of this method we answer a question of Michael Wemyss about deformations of contraction algebras.
