Abstract
Let X be a simply connected closed oriented manifold of rationally elliptic homotopy type. We prove that the string topology bracket on the
$S^1$
-equivariant homology
$ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}} X,{\mathbb {Q}}) $
of the free loop space of X preserves the Hodge decomposition of
$ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}} X,{\mathbb {Q}}) $
, making it a bigraded Lie algebra. We deduce this result from a general theorem on derived Poisson structures on the universal enveloping algebras of homologically nilpotent finite-dimensional DG Lie algebras. Our theorem settles a conjecture of [7].
