Abstract

We summarise the chain of comparisons showing Hinich's derived Maurer-Cartan functor gives an equivalence between differential graded Lie algebras and derived Schlessinger functors on Artinian differential graded-commutative algebras. We include some motivating deformation problems and analogues for more general Koszul dual pairs of operads.
