Abstract: | Rational homotopy types of simply connected topological spaces have been classified by weak equivalence classes of commutative
cochain algebras (Sullivan) and by isomorphism classes of minimal commutative A
∞-algebras (Kadeishvili).
We classify rational homotopy types of the space X by using the (noncommutative) singular cochain complex C*(X, Q), with additional structure given by the homotopies introduced by Baues, {E
1,k
} and {F
p,q}. We show that if we modify the resulting B
∞-algebra structure on this algebra by requiring that its bar construction be a Hopf algebra up to a homotopy, then weak equivalence
classes of such algebras classify rational homotopy types.
