Deformations of Symplectic Foliations: algebraic aspects

Abstract

In the companion paper arXiv:2110.05298, we developed the deformation theory of symplectic foliations, focusing on geometric aspects. Here, we address some algebraic questions that arose naturally. We show that the $L_{\infty}$-algebra constructed there is independent of the choices made, and we prove that the gauge equivalence of Maurer-Cartan elements corresponds to the equivalence by isotopies of symplectic foliations.
