We review in detail the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism for Lagrangian field theories and its mathematical foundations with an emphasis on higher algebraic structures and classical field theories. In particular, we show how a field theory…

We describe $L_\infty$-algebras governing homotopy relative Rota-Baxter Lie algebras and triangular $L_\infty$-bialgebras, and establish a map between them. Our formulas are based on a functorial approach to Voronov's higher derived…

Consider a monoidal category which is at the same time abelian with enough projectives and such that projectives are flat on the right. We show that there is a $B_{\infty}$-algebra which is $A_{\infty}$-quasi-isomorphic to the derived…

This is a companion paper of a long work appeared in [1] discussing the super-Chern-Simons theory on supermanifolds. Here, it is emphasized that the BV formalism is naturally formulated using integral forms for any supersymmetric and…

An A_\infty-bialgebra is a DGM H equipped with structurally compatible operations {\omega^{j,i} : H^{\otimes i} --> H^{\otimes j}} such that (H,\omega^{1,i}) is an A_\infty-algebra and (H,\omega^{j,1}) is an A_\infty-coalgebra. Structural…

Given a simple, simply laced, complex Lie algebra $\bfg$ corresponding to the Lie group $G$, let $\bfnp$ be the subalgebra generated by the positive roots. In this paper we construct a BV-algebra $\fA[\bfg]$ whose underlying graded…

We construct L$_{\infty}$ algebras for general `initial data' given by a vector space equipped with an antisymmetric bracket not necessarily satisfying the Jacobi identity. We prove that any such bracket can be extended to a 2-term…

Let $M$ be a 1-connected closed manifold and $LM$ be the space of free loops on $M$. In \cite{C-S} M. Chas and D. Sullivan defined a structure of BV-algebra on the singular homology of $LM$, $H_\ast(LM; \bk)$. When the field of coefficients…

In this review we give a detailed introduction to the theory of (curved) $L_\infty$-algebras and $L_\infty$-morphisms. In particular, we recall the notion of (curved) Maurer-Cartan elements, their equivalence classes and the twisting…

Bakalov, Kac and Voronov introduced Leibniz conformal algebras (and their cohomology) as a non-commutative analogue of Lie conformal algebras. Leibniz conformal algebras are closely related to field algebras which are non-skew-symmetric…

A L\'evy process on a *-bialgebra is given by its generator, a conditionally positive hermitian linear functional vanishing at the unit element. A *-algebra homomorphism k from a *-bialgebra C to a *-bialgebra B with the property that k…

By homotopy linear algebra we mean the study of linear functors between slices of the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-groupoids, subject to certain finiteness conditions. After some standard definitions and results, we assemble said slices…

We show that an $L_\infty$-algebra can be extended to a graded Hopf algebra with a codifferential. Then we twist this extended $L_\infty$-algebra with a Drinfel'd twist, simultaneously twisting its modules. Taking the $L_\infty$-algebra as…

We study a certain class of bulk-boundary systems in the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formalism. We construct factorization algebras of observables for such bulk-boundary systems, and show that these factorization algebras have a natural Poisson…

It is well known that a $Q$-manifold gives rise to an $L_\infty$-algebra structure on the tangent space at a fixed point of the homological vector field. From the field theory perspective this implies that the expansion of a classical…

In this paper, we relate Lie algebroids to Costello's version of derived geometry. For instance, we show that each Lie algebroid $L$-and the natural generalization to dg Lie algebroids-provides an (essentially unique) $L_\infty$ space. More…

For a new class of algebras, called $EMV$-algebras, every idempotent element $a$ determines an $MV$-algebra which is important for the structure of the $EMV$-algebra. Therefore, instead of standard homomorphisms of $EMV$-algebras, we…

The search for algebraic foundations of colour-kinematics duality and the double-copy construction has brought into focus a generalization of Batalin--Vilkovisky algebras, referred to here as coexact BV-algebras and as…

In previous works by the authors, a bifunctor was associated to any operadic twisting morphism, taking a coalgebra over a cooperad and an algebra over an operad, and giving back the space of (graded) linear maps between them endowed with a…

Explicit constructions for the minimal models of general and unimodular L-infinity algebra structures are given using the BV-formalism of mathematical physics and the perturbative expansions of integrals. In particular, the general formulas…
