Rational Homotopy Theory

Infinity algebras and rational homotopy theory

Abstract:

This will be a conclusion of last term's seminar on rational homotopy theory. I will try to explain what A-infinity, L-infinity, and C-infinity algebras (also known as homotopy associative, Lie and commutative algebras) are, and why they are a useful framework for the theorems of rational homotopy theory.
