Homotopy algebras of differential (super)forms in three and four dimensions

We consider various A ∞ -algebras of differential (super)forms, which are related to gauge theories and demonstrate explicitly how certain reformulations of gauge theories lead to the transfer of the corresponding A ∞ -structures. In addition, for N = 2 3D space, we construct the homotopic counterpa...

Zusammenfassung:We consider various A ∞ -algebras of differential (super)forms, which are related to gauge theories and demonstrate explicitly how certain reformulations of gauge theories lead to the transfer of the corresponding A ∞ -structures. In addition, for N = 2 3D space, we construct the homotopic counterpart of the de Rham complex, which is related to the superfield formulation of the N = 2 Chern–Simons theory.
