Contact Courant algebroids and \(L_\infty\)-algebras. (English) Zbl 1466.53035

The notion of contact Courant algebroids (or \(L\)-Courant algebroids) was introduced by J. Grabowski as a contact analogue of classical Courant algebroids.
The association of a \(L\)-algebra to an arbitrary \(L\)-Courant algebroid is obtained. This association is an analogue of Roytenberg and Weinstein association for Courant algebroids.
Some important results for isotropic involutive subbundles of \(DL\) (here \(DL\) is the gauge algebroid of \(L\)) are also presented.
