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}.

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

Covariant phase space and $L_\infty$ algebras
A covariant phase space symplectic form is constructed for any L∞ Lagrangian field theory using a 'sigmoid' operator, and is verified in scalar, Yang-Mills, general relativity, and p-adic string examples.

Generalised Symmetries and Swampland-Type Constraints from Charge Quantisation via Rational Homotopy Theory
Refining charge quantization via a homotopy type A yields swampland-like constraints ruling out noncompact gauge groups and non-nilpotent one-form Lie algebras, and requires A to be contractible for quantum gravity theories.

Gauged Extended Field Theory and Generalised Cartan Geometry
A systematic Cartan-geometric construction of linearised torsion and curvature hierarchies for generalised geometries with global duality group G and local gauge group H, realised via brane current algebras.
