We will first review an algebra of special differential forms on sympectic manifolds, constructed by Tsai, Tseng and Yau. Then we introduce a twist on this algebra, which leads to a flatness condition. This twist is motivated by considering the connections on fiber bundles, and we can generalize it to A-infinity algebras, together with a generalized flatness condition.
