Homotopy Path Algebras (2205.03730v5)

Abstract: We define a basic class of algebras which we call homotopy path algebras. We find that such algebras always admit a cellular resolution and detail the intimate relationship between these algebras, stratifications of topological spaces, and entrance/exit paths. As examples, we prove versions of homological mirror symmetry due to Bondal-Ruan for toric varieties and due to Berglund-H\"ubsch-Krawitz for hypersurfaces with maximal symmetry. We also demonstrate that a form of shellability implies Koszulity and the existence of a minimal cellular resolution. In particular, when the algebra determined by the image of the toric Frobenius morphism is directable, then it is Koszul and admits a minimal cellular resolution.
