Strongly homotopy Lie algebras
The present paper can be thought of as a continuation of the paper "Introduction to sh Lie algebras for physicists" by T. Lada and J. Stasheff (International Journal of Theoretical Physics Vol. 32,…

- 25 February 1997
Abstract:A general construction of an sh Lie algebra (L∞-algebra) from a homological resolution of a Lie algebra is given. It is applied to the space of local functionals equipped with a Poisson…
sh-Lie Algebras Induced by Gauge Transformations
- R. Fulp, T. Lada, J. Stasheff
- Mathematics
- 13 December 2000
Abstract: Traditionally symmetries of field theories are encoded via Lie group actions, or more generally, as Lie algebra actions. A significant generalization is required when “gauge parameters” act…
Homotopy derivations
We define a strong homotopy derivation of (cohomological) degree k of a strong homotopy algebra over an operad $$\mathcal {P}$$P. This involves resolving the operad obtained from $$\mathcal {P}$$P by…
Noether's variational theorem II and the BV formalism
- R. Fulp, T. Lada, J. Stasheff
- Mathematics
- 7 April 2002
We review the basics of the Lagrangian approach to field theory and recast Noether's Second Theorem formulated in her language of dependencies using a slight modernization of terminology and…
COMMUTATORS OF A∞ STRUCTURES

- Mathematics
- 2002
This note will be for the most part of an expository nature; many of the results here have appeared elsewhere. We would like however, to highlight the connection between Jim Stasheff’s early work on…
