Chain-level equivariant string topology: algebra versus analysis
Abstract
We prove that on 2-connected closed oriented manifolds, the analytic and algebraic constructions of an IBL∞ structure associated to a closed oriented manifold coincide. The corresponding structure is invariant under orientation preserving homotopy equivalences and induces on homology the involutive Lie bialgebra structure of Chas and Sullivan.
