Koszul Algebras and Their Ideals

We study associative graded algebras that have a “complete flag” of cyclic modules with linear free resolutions, i.e., algebras over which there exist cyclic Koszul modules with any possible number of relations (from zero to the number of generators of the algebra). Commutative algebras with this property were studied in several papers by Conca and others. Here we present a noncommutative version of their construction.We introduce and study the notion of Koszul filtration in a noncommutative algebra and examine its connections with Koszul algebras and algebras with quadratic Grobner bases. We consider several examples, including monomial algebras, initially Koszul algebras, generic algebras, and algebras with one quadratic relation. It is shown that every algebra with a Koszul filtration has a rational Hilbert series.__________Translated from Funktsional’nyi Analiz i Ego Prilozheniya, Vol. 39, No. 2, pp. 47–60, 2005Original Russian Text Copyright © by D.

Stable Projective Homotopy Theory of Modules,Tails, and Koszul Duality

A contravariant functor is constructed from the stable projective homotopy theory of finitely generated graded modules over a finite-dimensional algebra to the derived category of its Yoneda algebra modulo finite complexes of modules of finite length. If the algebra is Koszul with a noetherian Yoneda algebra, then the constructed functor is a duality between triangulated categories. If the algebra is self-injective, then stable homotopy theory specializes trivially to stable module theory. In particular, for an exterior algebra the constructed duality specializes to (a contravariant analog of) the Bernstein–Gelfand–Gelfand correspondence.     

A monomial cycle basis on Koszul homology modules

We give a class of p-Borel principal ideals of a polynomial algebra over a field K for which the graded Betti numbers do not depend on the characteristic of K and the Koszul homology modules have a monomial cyclic basis.     

On the Category of Koszul Modules of Complexity One of an Exterior Algebra

In this paper, we prove that there is a natural equivalence between the category F1（x） of Koszul modules of complexity 1 with filtration of given cyclic modules as the factor modules of an exterior algebra A = ∧V of an m-dimensional vector space, and the category of the finite-dimensional locally nilpotent modules of the polynomial algebra of m - 1 variables.

Koszul differential graded modules

The concept of Koszulity for differential graded (DG, for short) modules is introduced. It is shown that any bounded below DG module with bounded Ext-group to the trivial module over a Koszul DG algebra has a Koszul DG submodule (up to a shift and truncation), moreover such a DG module can be approximated by Koszul DG modules (Theorem 3.6). Let A be a Koszul DG algebra, and Dc(A) be the full triangulated subcategory of the derived category of DG A-modules generated by the object AA. If the trivial DG module...     

Mixed algebras and quivers related to cell complexes

In this paper we study finite dimensional algebras arising from categories of perverse sheaves on finite regular cell complexes (cellular perverse algebras). We prove that such algebras are quasi-hereditary and have finite global dimension. We discuss some restrictions, under which cellular perverse algebras are Koszul. We also study the relationship between Koszul duality functors in the derived categories of categories of graded and non-graded modules over an algebra and its quadratic dual.     

Algebraic Shifting and Exterior and Symmetric Algebra Methods

We define and study Cartan–Betti numbers of a graded ideal J in the exterior algebra over an infinite field which include the usual graded Betti numbers of J as a special case. Following ideas of Conca regarding Koszul–Betti numbers over the symmetric algebra, we show that Cartan–Betti numbers increase by passing to the generic initial ideal and the squarefree lexsegement ideal, respectively. Moreover, we characterize the cases where the inequalities become equalities. As combinatorial applications of the first part of this note and some further symmetric algebra methods we establish results about algebraic shifting of simplicial complexes and use them to compare different shifting operations. In particular, we show that each shifting operation does not decrease the number of facets, and that the exterior shifting is the best among the exterior shifting operations in the sense that it increases the number of facets the least.     

Koszulity and Koszul modules of dual extension algebras

Let A and B be algebras, and let T be the dual extension algebra of A and B. We provide a different method to prove that T is Koszul if and only if both A and B are Koszul. Furthermore, we prove that an algebra is Koszul if and only if one of its iterated dual extension algebras is Koszul, if and only if all its iterated dual extension algebras are Koszul. Finally, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a dual extension algebra to have the property that all linearly presented modules are Koszul modules, which provides an effective way to construct algebras with such a property.     

Co-Point Modules Over Frobenius Koszul Algebras

Let A be a Frobenius Koszul algebra such that its Koszul dual A ^! is a quantum polynomial algebra. Co-point modules over A were defined as dual notion of point modules over A ^! with respect to the Koszul duality. In this article, we will see that various important functors between module categories over A used in representation theory of finite dimensional algebras send co-point modules to co-point modules. As a consequence, we will show that if (E, σ) is a geometric pair associated to A ^!, then the map σ:E → E is an automorphism of the point scheme E of A ^!, so that there is a bijection between isomorphism classes of left point modules over A ^! and those of right point modules over A ^!.     

Graded and Koszul Categories

Koszul algebras have arisen in many contexts; algebraic geometry, combinatorics, Lie algebras, non-commutative geometry and topology. The aim of this paper and several sequel papers is to show that for any finite dimensional algebra there is always a naturally associated Koszul theory. To obtain this, the notions of Koszul algebras, linear modules and Koszul duality are extended to additive (graded) categories over a field. The main focus of this paper is to provide these generalizations and the necessary preliminaries.     

Blocks and modules for Whittaker pairs

Inspired by recent activities on Whittaker modules over various (Lie) algebras, we describe a general framework for the study of Lie algebra modules locally finite over a subalgebra. As a special case, we obtain a very general set-up for the study of Whittaker modules, which includes, in particular, Lie algebras with triangular decomposition and simple Lie algebras of Cartan type. We describe some basic properties of Whittaker modules, including a block decomposition of the category of Whittaker modules and certain properties of simple Whittaker modules under some rather mild assumptions. We establish a connection between our general set-up and the general set-up of Harish-Chandra subalgebras in the sense of Drozd, Futorny and Ovsienko. For Lie algebras with triangular decomposition, we construct a family of simple Whittaker modules (roughly depending on the choice of a pair of weights in the dual of the Cartan subalgebra), describe their annihilators, and formulate several classification conjectures. In particular, we construct some new simple Whittaker modules for the Virasoro algebra. Finally, we construct a series of simple Whittaker modules for the Lie algebra of derivations of the polynomial algebra, and consider several finite-dimensional examples, where we study the category of Whittaker modules over solvable Lie algebras and their relation to Koszul algebras.     

Koszul duality for extension algebras of standard modules

We define and investigate a class of Koszul quasi-hereditary algebras for which there is a natural equivalence between the bounded derived category of graded modules and the bounded derived category of graded modules over (a proper version of) the extension algebra of standard modules. Examples of such algebras include, in particular, the multiplicity free blocks of the BGG category O, and some quasi-hereditary algebras with Cartan decomposition in the sense of König.     

The Koszul dual of a weakly Koszul module

We study the so-called weakly Koszul modules and characterise their Koszul duals. We show that the (adjusted) associated graded module of a weakly Koszul module exactly determines the homology modules of the Koszul dual. We give an example of a quasi-Koszul module which is not weakly Koszul.     

On the Regularity and Koszulness of Modules Over Local Rings

Koszul modules over Noetherian local rings R were introduced by Herzog and Iyengar and they possess good homological properties, for instance their Poincaré series is rational. It is an interesting problem to characterize classes of Koszul modules. Following the idea traced by Avramov, Iyengar, and Sega, we take advantage of the existence of special filtration on R for proving that large classes of R-modules over Koszul rings are Koszul modules. By using this tool we reprove and extend some results obtained by Fitzgerald.     

Koszul-like algebras and modules

In this paper, the notion of Koszul-like algebra is introduced; this notion generalizes the notion of Koszul algebra and includes some Artin-Schelter regular algebras of global dimension 5 as special examples. Basic properties of Koszul-like modules are discussed. In particular, some necessary and sufficient conditions for KL(A) = L(A) are provided, where KL(A) and L(A) denote the categories of Koszul-like modules and modules with linear presentations (see [1]–[3], etc.) respectively, and A is a Koszul-like algebra. We construct new Koszul-like algebras from the known ones by the “one-point extension.” Some criteria for a graded algebra to be Koszul-like are provided. Finally, we construct many classical Koszul objects from the given Koszul-like objects.     

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.
