    added to Poisson bracket Lie n-algebra the two definitions we have and the statement of their equivalence.

    (I am about to edit at conserved current and need to point to these ingredients from there)

    Added the statement of the extension theorem:


    Given a pre n-plectic manifold (X,ω n+1)(X,\omega_{n+1}), then the Poisson bracket Lie nn-algebra 𝔓𝔬𝔦𝔰(X,ω)\mathfrak{Pois}(X,\omega) from above is an extension of the Lie algebra of Hamiltonian vector fields Vect Ham(X)Vect_{Ham}(X), def. \ref{HamiltonianFormsAndVectorFields} by the cocycle infinity-groupoid H(X,B n1)\mathbf{H}(X,\flat \mathbf{B}^{n-1} \mathbb{R}) for ordinary cohomology with real number coefficients in that there is a homotopy fiber sequence in the homotopy theory of L-infinity algebras of the form

    H(X,B d1) 𝔓𝔬𝔦𝔰(X,ω) Vect Ham(X,ω) ω[] BH(X,B d1), \array{ \mathbf{H}(X,\flat \mathbf{B}^{d-1}\mathbb{R}) &\longrightarrow& \mathfrak{Pois}(X,\omega) \\ && \downarrow \\ && Vect_{Ham}(X,\omega) &\stackrel{\omega[\bullet]}{\longrightarrow}& \mathbf{B} \mathbf{H}(X,\flat \mathbf{B}^{d-1}\mathbb{R}) } \,,

    where the cocycle ω[]\omega[\bullet], when realized on the model of def. \ref{PoissonBracketLienAlgebra}, is degreewise given by by contraction with ω\omega.

    This is FRS13b, theorem 3.3.1.

    As a corollary this means that the 0-truncation τ 0𝔓𝔬𝔦𝔰(X,ω)\tau_0 \mathfrak{Pois}(X,\omega) is a Lie algebra extension by de Rham cohomology, fitting into a short exact sequence of Lie algebras

    0H dR d1(X)τ 0𝔓𝔬𝔦𝔰(X,ω)Vect Ham(X)0. 0 \to H^{d-1}_{dR}(X) \longrightarrow \tau_0 \mathfrak{Pois}(X,\omega) \longrightarrow Vect_{Ham}(X) \to 0 \,.
