Homotopy transfer and formality

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In a recent paper, the second author and Joana Cirici proved a theorem that says that given appropriate hypotheses, n-formality of a differential graded algebraic structure is equivalent to the existence of a chain-level lift of a homology-level degree twisting automorphism using a unit of multiplicative order at least n. Here we give another proof of this result of independent interest and under slightly different hypotheses. We use the homotopy transfer theorem and an explicit inductive procedure in order to kill the higher operations. As an application of our result, we prove formality with coefficients in the p-adic integers of certain dg-algebras coming from hyperplane and toric arrangements and configuration spaces.
