Review text

Let \(X\) be a connected topological space with finite rational Betti numbers, let \((\wedge V,d)\) be its minimal Sullivan model, and let \(L\) be the related homotopy Lie algebra. Then, the authors obtain, amongst others, under some finiteness conditions, the inequality \(\mathrm{depth }L \leq\mathrm{cat}(\wedge V,d)\leq \mathrm{cat }X\). For the definition of depth of a graded Lie algebra, see [\textit{Y. Félix} et al., Rational homotopy theory II. Hackensack, NJ: World Scientific (2015; Zbl 1325.55001)].
