Abstract
In an arbitrary complete differential graded Lie algebra, we construct a group operation on such that the differential of the product of two elements is the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff product of their differentials, i.e., . We study some properties of this new structure and some applications, especially in homotopy theory, where this operation can be used to construct a Lie model for the 4-simplex. In particular, this solves, in dimension 4, a problem proposed by Lawrence and Sullivan.
