Homotopy algebra of open–closed strings (original) (raw)
2008, Groups, homotopy and configuration spaces (Tokyo 2005)
This paper is a survey of our previous works on open-closed homotopy algebras, together with geometrical background, especially in terms of compactifications of configuration spaces (one of Fred's specialities) of Riemann surfaces, structures on loop spaces, etc. We newly present Merkulov's geometric A ∞ -structure [49] as a special example of an OCHA. We also recall the relation of open-closed homotopy algebras to various aspects of deformation theory.
