In this paper we will prove a super-analogue of a well-known result by Kontsevich which states that the homology of a certain complex which is generated by isomorphism classes of oriented graphs can be calculated as the Lie algebra homology…
We describe a procedure to attach a nilpotent strong homotopy Lie algebra to every simple hypergraph and prove that two hypergraphs are isomorphic if and only if the corresponding strong homotopy Lie algebras are isomorphic. As an…
We prove that strongly homotopy algebras (such as $A_\infty$, $C_\infty$, sh Lie, $B_\infty$, $G_\infty$,...) are homotopically invariant in the category of chain complexes. An important consequence is a rigorous proof that `strongly…
We prove that the action of the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group on the genus completed properad of (homotopy) Lie bialgebras commutes with the reversing directions involution of the latter. We also prove that every universal quantization…
Kontsevich has proven that the Lie homology of the Lie algebra of symplectic vector fields can be computed in terms of the homology of a graph complex. We prove that the Leibniz homology of this Lie algebra can be computed in terms of the…
The strong homotopy Lie algebra, controlling simultaneous deformations of a morphism of associative algebras and its domain and codomain is constructed. Isomorphism of the cohomology of this strong homotopy Lie algebra with the classical…
In this paper, we determine the homotopy type of the Morse complex of certain collections of simplicial complexes by studying dominating vertices or strong collapses. We show that if $K$ contains two leaves that share a common vertex, then…
It is well-known that the Lie algebra of homotopy non-trivial degree zero derivations of the properad of strongly homotopy Lie bialgebras $\mathcal{H}olieb$ can be identified with the Grothendieck-Teichmuller Lie algebra $\mathfrak{grt}$.…
We prove that every connected strongly regular graph on sufficiently many vertices is Hamiltonian. We prove this by showing that, apart from three families, connected strongly regular graphs are (highly) pseudo-random. Our results suggest a…
We prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for symmetric complex-weighted Boolean #CSP when the constraint graph of the input must be planar. The problems that are #P-hard over general graphs but tractable over planar graphs are precisely…
Lada introduced strong homotopy algebras to describe the structures on a deformation retract of an algebra in topological spaces. However, there is no satisfactory general definition of a morphism of strong homotopy (s.h.) algebras. Given a…
In [math.AT/9907138] we proved that strongly homotopy algebras are homotopy invariant concepts in the category of chain complexes. Our arguments were based on the fact that strongly homotopy algebras are algebras over minimal cofibrant…
Given a finite simplicial complex $X$ and a connected graph $T$ of diameter $1$, in \cite{anton} Dochtermann had conjectured that $\text{Hom}(T,G_{1,X})$ is homotopy equivalent to $X$. Here, $G_{1, X}$ is the reflexive graph obtained by…
We compute the homotopy derivations of the properads governing even and odd Lie bialgebras as well as involutive Lie bialgebras. The answer may be expressed in terms of the Kontsevich graph complexes. In particular, this shows that the…
A well-known result of A. Vaintrob characterizes Lie algebroids and their morphisms in terms of homological vector fields on supermanifolds. We give an interpretation of Lie bialgebroids and their morphisms in terms of odd symplectic…
This article classifies the real forms of Lie Superalgebra by Vogan diagrams, developing Borel and de Seibenthal theorem of semisimple Lie algebras for Lie superalgebras. A Vogan diagram is a Dynkin diagram of triplet…
It is shown that if T is a connected nontrivial graph and X is an arbitrary finite simplicial complex, then there is a graph G such that the complex Hom(T,G) is homotopy equivalent to X. The proof is constructive, and uses a nerve lemma.…
We prove that the BRST complex of a topological conformal field theory is a homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra, as conjectured by Lian and Zuckerman in 1992. We also suggest a refinement of the original conjecture for topological vertex operator…
Dochtermann introduced the loop space construction of a based graph $(G,v)$ whose basepoint is a looped vertex. He showed that the complex $C(\Omega(G,v))$ is homotopy equivalent to the loop space $\Omega(C(G),v)$ of $C(G)$. Here we write…
We analyze the gauge structure of a recently proposed superconformal field theory in six dimensions. We find that this structure amounts to a weak Courant-Dorfman algebra, which, in turn, can be interpreted as a strong homotopy Lie algebra.…
