Algebraic Operads
Учкай маалымат
After a low-level chapter on Algebra, accessible to (advanced) undergraduate students, the level increases gradually through the book. However, the authors have done their best to make it suitable for graduate students: three appendices review the basic results needed in order to understand the various chapters. Since higher algebra is becoming essential in several research areas like deformation theory, algebraic geometry, representation theory, differential geometry, algebraic combinatorics, and mathematical physics, the book can also be used as a reference work by researchers.

Jean-Louis Loday has worked in algebraic K-theory, algebraic topology, noncommutative geometry and higher algebra. He is the author of "Cyclic Homology" a worldwide reference, published as volume 301 in the Grundleheren der mathematischen Wissenschadften. He is an editor of several mathematical journals and several Proceedings. He has organized six of the annual conferences "Operads 20xx" (starting in 2004).
Bruno Vallette has worked on operads since his first years in mathematical research. He is the author of 10 research articles and a specialist of properads and of Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras.
Loday and Vallette organized several summer schools and international conferences on the subject (France, China, Norway) and published the Proceedings of these conferences.
