| Description | We present a simplified description of higher antibrackets, generalizations of the conventional antibracket of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. We show that these higher antibrackets satisfy relations that are identical to those of higher string products in non-polynomial closed string field theory. Generalization to the case of Sp(2)-symmetry is also formulated. |
