Morphisms of $A_\infty$-algebras and modules

Abstract

$A_\infty$-algebra is a chain complex equipped with a coherent multiplicative structure, i.e. a multiplication which is commutative up to (higher) chain homotopy. Similarly $A_\infty$-module over such algebra is equipped with its coherent action. These notions are used to represent cohomological information contained in topological multiplicative structures. One of the key tools of the theory are minimal models, which are useful in cohomological computations. In this thesis author presents certain sufficient conditions for a morphism of $A_\infty$-modules to induce a morphism of their minimal models.
