Popis: Quantum $L_\infty$ algebras are a generalization of $L_\infty$ algebras with a scalar product and with operations corresponding to higher genus graphs. We construct a minimal model of a given quantum $L_\infty$ algebra via the homological perturbation lemma and show that it's given by a Feynman diagram expansion, computing the effective action in the finite-dimensional Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. We also construct a homotopy between the original and this effective quantum $L_\infty$ algebra.
Comment: v2: 27 pages, fixed typos and the section 4.4; v3: published version - shortened and removed the appendix on relationship between quantum master actions and brackets
