Commutative differential graded algebra

ID: commutative-differential-graded-algebra

A commutative differential graded algebra has multiplication and a degree-one differential with and . Over , its free algebra on graded generators is polynomial on even-degree generators and exterior on odd-degree generators. Rational rational polynomial differential forms on a space supply such an algebra, modelled up to quasi-isomorphism by a Sullivan minimal model.
