W $$ \mathcal{W} $$ algebras are L∞ algebras
Abstract It is shown that the closure of the infinitesimal symmetry transformations underlying classical W $$ \mathcal{W} $$ algebras give rise to L∞ algebras with in general field dependent gauge parameters. Therefore, the class of well understood W $$ \mathcal{W} $$ algebras provides highly nontri...
