We give a sufficient condition for uniqueness of such an $A_\\infty$-structure up to quasi-isomorphism using Hochschild cohomology. We then extend this condition to Sagave's notion of derived $A_\\infty$-algebras after introducing a notion of Hochschild cohomology that applies to this.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2010-10-08T13:44:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "18E30", "55U35" ], "keywords": [ "hochschild cohomology", "uniqueness", "differential graded algebra structure", "sagaves notion", "sufficient condition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0909.3222R" } } }
