The BV formalism for L$_\infty$-algebras

Functorial properties of the correspondence between commutative BV$_\infty$-algebras and L$_\infty$-algebras are investigated. The category of L$_\infty$-algebras with L$_\infty$-morphisms is characterized as a certain category of pure BV$_\infty$-algebras with pure BV$_\infty$-morphisms. The functor assigning to a commutative BV$_\infty$-algebra the L$_\infty$-algebra given by higher derived brackets is also shown to have a left adjoint. Cieliebak-Fukaya-Latschev's machinery of IBL$_\infty$- and BV$_\infty$-morphisms is further developed with introducing the logarithm of a map.
