Title: Homotopy Algebras and Field Theories
Abstract: This is a pedagogical introduction to homotopy algebras and their applications in physical theories. In particular, I will review recent progress in understanding classical and quantum field theories on manifolds with and without boundaries in terms of homotopy algebras. Examples of these constructions will include Chern-Simons and Yang-Mills theories, and also incompressible Navier-Stokes flows.
