Homotopy Lie algebra

In mathematics, in particular abstract algebra and topology, a homotopy Lie algebra (or -algebra) is a generalisation of the concept of a differential graded Lie algebra. To be a little more specific, the Jacobi identity only holds up to homotopy. Therefore, a differential graded Lie algebra can be seen as a homotopy Lie algebra where the Jacobi identity holds on the nose. These homotopy algebras are useful in classifying deformation problems over characteristic 0 in deformation theory because are classified by quasi-isomorphism classes of -algebras. This was later extended to all characteristics by Jonathan Pridham. Homotopy Lie algebras have applications within mathematics and mathematical physics; they are linked, for instance, to the Batalin–Vilkovisky formalism much like differential graded Lie algebras are.

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras: Lesson 34 -Introduction to Homotopy

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras: Introduction to Homotopy In order to proceed with Gilmore's study of Lie groups and Lie algebras we now need a concept from algebraic topology. That concept is the notion of homotopy and the Fundamental Group of a topological space. In this lecture we provide

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video we add some more definition to our toolbox before we go any further in our study into group theory and abstract algebra. The definition at hand is the homomorphism. A homomorphism is a function that maps the elements for one group to another whilst maintaining their structu

Computing homology groups | Algebraic Topology | NJ Wildberger

The definition of the homology groups H_n(X) of a space X, say a simplicial complex, is quite abstract: we consider the complex of abelian groups generated by vertices, edges, 2-dim faces etc, then define boundary maps between them, then take the quotient of kernels mod boundaries at each

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra examples

Yesterday we took a look at the definition of a homomorphism. In today's lecture I want to show you a couple of example of homomorphisms. One example gives us a group, but I take the time to prove that it is a group just to remind ourselves of the properties of a group. In this video th

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. We discuss the relation between Lie groups and Lie algebras, and give several examples showing how they behave differently. Lie algebras turn out to correspond more closely to the simply connected Lie groups. We then explain
