L_infinity extensions of Galilean, Newton-Hooke and static algebras produce infinite towers of p-form fields that couple to torsionful non-Lorentzian gravities and yield WZW terms for (p-1)-branes via doubled coordinates.

abstract
Closed string field theory leads to a generalization of Lie algebra which arose naturally within mathematics in the study of deformations of algebraic structures. It also appeared in work on higher spin particles \cite{BBvD}. Representation theoretic analogs arose in the mathematical analysis of the Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky approach to constrained Hamiltonians. A major goal of this paper is to see the relevant formulas, especially in closed string field theory, as a generalization of those for a differential graded Lie algebra, hopefully describing the mathematical essentials in terms accessible to {\it physicists}.

Refines charge quantization via homotopy type A whose homotopy groups classify brane charges and homology groups classify higher-form symmetries, deriving swampland-like constraints that rule out noncompact gauge groups and non-nilpotent Lie algebras for field strengths.

$L_\infty$-algebraic extensions of non-Lorentzian kinematical Lie algebras, gravities, and brane couplings
