Abstract

We construct a solution of the master equation by means of standard tools from homological perturbation theory under just the hypothesis that the ground field be of characteristic zero, thereby avoiding the formality assumption of the relevant dg Lie algebra. To this end, we endow the homology H(g) of any differential graded Lie algebra g over a field of characteristic zero with an sh-Lie structure such that g and H(g) are sh-equivalent. We discuss our solution of the master equation in the context of deformation theory. Given the extra structure appropriate to the extended moduli space of complex structures on a Calabi-Yau manifold, the known solutions result as a special case.
