Higher homotopies are nowadays playing a prominent role in mathematics as well as in certain branches of theoretical physics. We recall some of the connections between the past and the present developments. Higher homotopies were isolated…
Hom-bialgebras and Hom-Hopf algebras are generalizations of bialgebra and Hopf algebra structures, where associativity and coassociativity conditions are twisted by a homomorphism. The purpose of this paper is to define a…
$G_\infty$-structure is shown to exist on the deformation complex of a morphism of associative algebras. The main step of the construction is extension of a $B_\infty$-algebra by an associative algebra. Actions of $B_\infty$-algebras on…
We study the notion of twisting elements $da=a\cup_1a$ with respect to $\cup_1$ product when it is a part of homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra structure. This allows to bring to one context the two classical concepts, the theory of deformation…
Let $H$ be a cocommutative Hopf algebra. The notion of Lie $H$-pseudoalgebra is a multivariable generalization of Lie conformal algebras. In this paper, we study some higher structures related to Lie $H$-pseudoalgebras where we increase the…
A *Gerstenhaber-Schack (G-S) bialgebra* consists of a graded Hopf algebra $H$ together with multilinear operations $\{\omega^1_3,\omega^2_2,\omega^3_1\}\subset \{Hom^{-1}(H^{\otimes m},H^{\otimes n}): m+n=4\},$ whose sum is the degree $-1$…
Gerstenhaber and Schack ([GS]) developed a deformation theory of presheaves of algebras on small categories. We translate their cohomological description to sheaf cohomology. More precisely, we describe the deformation space of (admissible)…
We establish a structure theorem, analogous to the classical result of Milnor and Moore, for differential graded Hopf algebras: any differential Hopf algebra $H$ that is free as a coalgebra carries an underlying $B_\infty$ algebra structure…
The Multiplier Hopf Group Coalgebra was introduced by Hegazi in 2002 [7] as a generalization of Hope group caolgebra, introduced by Turaev in 2000 [5], in the non-unital case. We prove that the concepts introduced by A.Van Daele in…
If A is a bialgebra over a field k and M, N are either left-right Yetter-Drinfel'd modules or left-right Hopf modules over A, we construct deformation cohomologies H^*(M,N) as total cohomologies of certain double complexes Y(M,N) and…
A first goal of this paper is to precisely relate the homotopy theories of bialgebras and $E_2$-algebras. For this, we construct a conservative and fully faithful $\infty$-functor from pointed conilpotent homotopy bialgebras to augmented…
This paper builds a general framework in which to study cohomology theories of strongly homotopy algebras, namely $A_\infty, C_\infty$ and $L_\infty$-algebras. This framework is based on noncommutative geometry as expounded by Connes and…
A hom-associative algebra is an algebra whose associativity is twisted by an algebra homomorphism. In this paper, we introduce a strongly homotopy version of hom-associative algebras ($HA_\infty$-algebras in short) on a graded vector space.…
We prove that Ext^*_A(k,k) is a Gerstenhaber algebra, where A is a Hopf algebra. In case A=D(H) is the Drinfeld double of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H, our results implies the existence of a Gerstenhaber bracket on H^*_{GS}(H,H).…
Stasheff's $A(\infty)$-algebra $(M,\{m_i:\otimes^iM\to M, i=1,2,3,...\})$ in fact is a DG-algebra $(M,m_1,m_2)$ with not necessarily associative product $m_2$ but this nonassociativity is measured by higher homotopies $m_{i>2}$.…
The recent focus on deformations of algebras called quantum algebras can be attributed to the fact that they appear to be the basic algebraic structures underlying an amazingly diverse set of physical situations. To date many interesting…
Hopf-Hecke algebras and Barbasch-Sahi algebras were defined by the first named author (2016) in order to provide a general framework for the study of Dirac cohomology. The aim of this paper is to explore new examples of these definitions…
Building on Kadeishvili's original theorem inducing $A_\infty$-algebra structures on the homology of dg-algebras, several directions of algorithmic research in $A_\infty$-algebras have been pursued. In this paper we will survey work done on…
We show that the diagonal complex computing the Gerstenhaber-Schack cohomology of a bialgebra (that is, the cohomology theory governing bialgebra deformations) can be given the structure of an operad with multiplication if the bialgebra is…
Additive deformations of bialgebras in the sense of Wirth are deformations of the multiplication map of the bialgebra fulfilling a compatibility condition with the coalgebra structure and a continuity condition. Two problems concerning…
