Koszul Modules and Gorenstein Algebras

I first define Koszul modules, which are a generalization to arbitrary rank of complete intersections. After a study of some of their properties, it is proved that Gorenstein algebras of codimension one or two over a local or graded CM ring are Koszul modules, thus generalizing a well known statement for rank one modules. The general techniques used to describe Koszul modules are then used to obtain a structure theorem for Gorenstein algebras in codimension one and two, over a local or graded CM ring.
