Derived \(A_\infty\)-algebras in an operadic context (Q1941812): Difference between revisions

From the abstract: Derived \(A_\infty\)-algebras were developed recently by \textit{S. Sagave} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 639, 73--105 (2010; Zbl 1209.18011)]. Their advantage over classical \(A_\infty\)-algebras is that no projectivity assumptions are needed to study minimal models of differential graded algebras. We explain how derived \(A_\infty\)-algebras can be viewed as algebras over an operad. More specifically, we describe how this operad arises as a resolution of the operad \(dAs\) encoding bidgas, i.e., bicomplexes with an associative multiplication. This generalises the established result describing the operad \(A_\infty\) as a resolution of the operad \(As\) encoding associative algebras. We further show that Sagave's definition of morphisms agrees with the infinity-morphisms of \(dA_\infty\)-algebras arising from operadic machinery. We also study the operadic homology of derived \(A_\infty\)-algebras.
