We prove that a differential graded Lie algebra is homotopy abelian if its adjoint map into its cochain complex of derivations is trivial in cohomology. The converse is true for cofibrant algebras and false in general.

Summary: All algebraic objects in this note will be considered over a fixed field of characteristic zero. If not stated otherwise, all operads live in the category of differential graded vector spaces over . For standard terminology concerning operads, algebras over operads, etc., see either the original paper by [“The geometry of iterated loop spaces”, Lect. Notes Math. 271 (1972; Zbl 0244.55009)], or an overview [, “La renaissance des opérads”, Sémin. Bourbaki 1994/95, Exp. No....

First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation between deformations and solutions of the corresponding Maurer-Cartan equation. In Section we generalize the Maurer-Cartan equation to strongly homotopy Lie algebras and prove the homotopy invariance of the moduli space of solutions of this equation....

We look at two examples of homotopy Lie algebras (also known as algebras) in detail from two points of view. We will exhibit the algebraic point of view in which the generalized Jacobi expressions are verified by using degree arguments and combinatorics. A second approach using the nilpotency of Grassmann-odd differential operators to verify the homotopy Lie data is shown to produce the same results.
