Maurer--Cartan methods in deformation theory: the twisting procedure, with Vladimir Dotesnko and Sergey Shadrin, 181 pages, London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series, Cambridge University Press (2023).  

This monograph provides an overview on the Maurer-Cartan methods in algebra, geometry, topology, and mathematical physics. It offers a conceptual, exhaustive and gentle treatment of the twisting procedure, which functorially creates new differential graded Lie algebras, associative algebras or operads (as well as their homotopy versions) from a Maurer-Cartan element.

Algebraic Operads, with
Jean-Louis Loday, 654 pages, Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften, Volume 346, Springer-Verlag (2012).
    
This book contains three main parts on Koszul duality theory,
algebraic operads and homotopical algebra respectively.

In order to support public research, I now submit my articles only to (free) academic journals.

My research works are 100% funded by public institutions; we edit and refer freely the research articles for publication, which often appear in electronic format.
So there is no reason for the Government to pay high fees to private edition compagnies so that the mathematical community  can have an acces to its own work.
