This paper is a survey on the homotopy theory of $E_n$-operads written for the new handbook of homotopy theory.
The framed little 2-discs operad is homotopy equivalent to a cyclic operad. We show that the derived modular envelope of this cyclic operad (i.e., the modular operad freely generated in a homotopy invariant sense) is homotopy equivalent to…
Let $\mathsf P$ be an operad acted upon by a group $G$, and let $\mathsf Q=\mathsf P\rtimes G$ be the corresponding framed operad. We relate the homotopy automorphism groups of $\mathsf P$ and $\mathsf Q$. We apply the result to compute the…
We express the rational homotopy type of the mapping spaces $\mathrm{Map}^h(\mathsf D_m,\mathsf D_n^{\mathbb Q})$ of the little discs operads in terms of graph complexes. Using known facts about the graph homology this allows us to compute…
We define the concept of a bi-operad. We develop the homotopy theory of "Bital-Sets" and of infinite-bi-operads. We develop a geometry of generalized schemes based on the spectra of distributive monochromatic bi-operads.
We express the hairy graph complexes computing the rational homotopy groups of long embeddings (modulo immersion) of R^m in R^n as "decorated" graph complexes associated to certain representations of the outer automorphism groups of free…
We give an explicit formula for a quasi-isomorphism between the operads Hycomm (the homology of the moduli space of stable genus 0 curves) and BV/$\Delta$ (the homotopy quotient of Batalin-Vilkovisky operad by the BV-operator). In other…
In this work we present an explicit operad morphism that is also a homotopy equivalence between the operad given by the real Fulton MacPherson compactification of configuration spaces and the little $n$-disks operad. In particular, the…
The framed little 2-discs operad is homotopy equivalent to the Kimura-Stasheff-Voronov cyclic operad of moduli spaces of genus zero stable curves with tangent rays at the marked points and nodes. We show that this cyclic operad is formal,…
This thesis is concerned with the application of operadic methods, particularly modular operads, to questions arising in the study of moduli spaces of surfaces as well as applications to the study of homotopy algebras and new constructions…
In this expository paper we give an elementary, hands-on computation of the homology of the little disks operad, showing that the homology of a $d-fold loop space is a Poisson algebra. One aim is to familiarize a greater audience with…
The framed n-discs operad fD_n is studied as semidirect product of SO(n) and the little n-discs operad. Our equivariant recognition principle says that a grouplike space acted on by fD_n is equivalent to the n-fold loop space on a…
In this paper, we generalize the Dunn-Brinkmeier~additivity theorem, which establishes a weak equivalence $\mathcal{C}_n \otimes \mathcal{C}_m \simeq \mathcal{C}_{n+m}$ for the little cubes operad $\mathcal{C}_n$. We introduce equivariant…
First we argue that many BV and homotopy BV structures, including both familiar and new examples, arise from a common underlying construction. The input of this construction is a cyclic operad along with a cyclically invariant Maurer-Cartan…
A multipath in a directed graph is a disjoint union of paths. The multipath complex of a directed graph ${\tt G}$ is the simplicial complex whose faces are the multipaths of ${\tt G}$. We compute the Euler characteristic, and associated…
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…
In this article, we apply the recently developed theory of transfer systems to study the relationship between $G$-equivariant linear isometries and infinite little discs operads, for a finite group $G$. This framework allows us to reduce…
Using standard calculus, explicit formulas for the one-dimensional continuous and discrete homotopy operators are derived. It is shown that these formulas are equivalent to those in terms of Euler operators obtained from the variational…
This paper studies formal deformations and homotopy theory of Rota-Baxter algebras of any weight. We define an $L_\infty$-algebra, which controls simultaneous deformations of associative products and Rota-Baxter operators. As a consequence,…
We construct explicit minimal models for the (hyper)operads governing modular, cyclic and ordinary operads, and wheeled properads, respectively. Algebras for these models are homotopy versions of the corresponding structures.
