Deformation theory and the controlling $L_{\infty}$-structure of extended Rota-Baxter algebras

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the controlling $L_{\infty}[1]$-algebra of extended Rota-Baxter algebras. As applications, we obtain the cohomology of extended Rota-Baxter algebras and homotopy extended Rota-Baxter algebras. We also study abelian extensions and formal deformations by the lower cohomology group. Lastly, we describe the intrinsic relationship among extended Rota-Baxter algebras, extended Rota-Baxter Lie algebras, and the eigenvalues of the extended Rota-Baxter operator. As the generalization of Rota-Baxter algebras with weight and modified Rota-Baxter algebras, the corresponding results also hold for those algebras.
