We introduce a strong homotopy notion of a cyclic symmetric inner product of an A-infinity algebra and prove a characterization theorem in the formalism of the infinity inner products by Tradler. We also show that it is equivalent to the…
In an earlier paper, we introduced ``bordered knot algebras'', which are graded algebras indexed by a pair of integers (m,k). In a subsequent paper, we introduced a two-parameter family of differential graded algebra, the ``pong algebras'',…
In this survey, we first present basic facts on A-infinity algebras and modules including their use in describing triangulated categories. Then we describe the Quillen model approach to A-infinity structures following K. Lefevre's thesis.…
We describe the E-infinity algebra structure on the complex of singular cochains of a topological space, in the context of sheaf theory. As a first application, for any algebraic variety we define a weight filtration compatible with its…
We present an elementary and self-contained construction of $A_\infty$-algebras, $A_\infty$-bimodules and their Hochschild homology and cohomology groups. In addition, we discuss the cup product in Hochschild cohomology and the spectral…
In this paper we develop the basic homotopy theory of G-symmetric spectra (that is, symmetric spectra with a G-action) for a finite group G, as a model for equivariant stable homotopy with respect to a G-set universe. This model lies in…
A-infinity algebras and categories are known to be the algebraic structures behind open string field theories. In this note we comment on the relevance of the homology construction of A-infinity categories to superpotentials.
We construct a new spectrum of units for a commutative symmetric ring spectrum that detects the difference between a periodic ring spectrum and its connective cover. It is augmented over the sphere spectrum. The homotopy cofiber of its…
We reconcile the multiplications on the homotopy rings of motivic ring spectra used by Voevodsky and Dugger. While the connection is elementary and similar phenomena have been observed in situations like supersymmetry, neither we nor other…
Using the framework for multiplicative parametrized homotopy theory introduced in joint work with C. Schlichtkrull, we produce a multiplicative comparison between the homotopical and operator algebraic constructions of twisted K-theory,…
In this paper, for a given finitely generated algebra (an algebraic structure with arbitrary operations and no predicates) A we study finitely generated limit algebras of A, approaching them via model theory and algebraic geometry. Along…
This master's thesis contains an introduction to $A_\infty$-algebras and homological perturbation theory. We then discuss the formality of compact K\"ahler manifolds and present a direct proof of a homotopy transfer principle of…
We uncover a somewhat surprising connection between spaces of multiplicative maps between $A_\infty$-ring spectra and topological Hochschild cohomology. As a consequence we show that such spaces become infinite loop spaces after looping…
In this paper we introduce the concept of L-algebras, which can be seen as a generalization of the structure determined by the Eilenberg-Mac lane transformation and Alexander-Whitney diagonal in chain complexes. In this sense, our main…
We consider the natural A-infinity structure on the Ext-algebra $Ext^*(G,G)$ associated with the coherent sheaf $G={\cal O}_C\oplus {\cal O}_{p_1}\oplus...\oplus {\cal O}_{p_n}$ on a smooth projective curve $C$, where $p_1,...,p_n\in C$ are…
We study associative multiplications in semi-simple associative algebras over C compatible with the usual one or, in other words, linear deformations of semi-simple associative algebras over C. It turns out that these deformations are in…
This paper provides an extensive study of the homotopy theory of types of algebras with units, like unital associative algebras or unital commutative algebras for instance. To this purpose, we endow the Koszul dual category of curved…
Given a cycle module M with a ring structure we show that the cycle complex with coefficients in M of a smooth scheme of finite type over a field has a A-infinity algebra structure. In the case of Milnor K-theory this gives a homotopy model…
In these lectures we present our minimality theorem by which in cohomology of a topological space appear multioperations which turn it ot Stasheff $A(\infty)$ algebra. This rich structure carries more information than just the structure of…
Motivated by ideas from stable homotopy theory we study the space of strongly homotopy associative multiplications on a two-cell chain complex. In the simplest case this moduli space is isomorphic to the set of orbits of a group of…
