Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to recall an analog of the bar construction for modular operads, called in this context the Feynman transform and introduced in Getzler and Kapranov (Compos Math 110(1):65–126, 1998), see also Markl et al. (Operads in algebra, topology and physics. In: Mathematical surveys and monographs, vol 96. American Mathematical Society, Providence, RI, 2002).
