Abstract

In this paper, we attach an LL_\infty-algebra to any coisotropic submanifold in a Jacobi manifold. Our construction generalizes and unifies analogous constructions by Oh-Park (symplectic case), Cattaneo-Felder (Poisson case), L\^e-Oh (locally conformal symplectic case). As a new special case, we attach an LL_\infty-algebra to any coisotropic submanifold in a contact manifold. The LL_\infty-algebra of a coisotropic submanifold SS governs the (formal) deformation problem of SS.
