Duality and Tameness

Duality and de Rham cohomology for graded $D$-modules

We consider the (graded) Matlis dual $\DD(M)$ of a graded $\D$-module $M$ over the polynomial ring $R = k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ ($k$ is a field of characteristic zero), and show that it can be given a structure of $\D$-module in such a way that, whenever $\dim_kH^i_{dR}(M)$ is finite, then $H^i_{dR}(M)$ is $k$-dual to $H^{n-i}_{dR}(\DD(M))$. As a consequence, we show that if $M$ is a graded $\D$-module such that $H^n_{dR}(M)$ is a finite-dimensional $k$-space, then $\dim_k(H^n_{dR}(M))$ is the maximal integer $s$ for which there exists a surjective $\D$-linear homomorphism $M \rightarrow E^s$, wh…

A very short note on the (rational) graded Hori map

The graded Hori map has been recently introduced by Han-Mathai in the context of T-duality as a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded transform whose homogeneous components are the Hori-Fourier transforms in twisted cohomology associated with integral multiples of a basic pair of T-dual closed 3-forms. We show how in the rational homotopy theory approximation of T-duality, such a map is naturally realised as a pull-iso-push transform, where the isomorphism part corresponds to the canonical equivalence between the left and the right gerbes associated with a T-duality configuration.

BGG correspondence and Roemer's theorem on an exterior algebra

Let E = K< y_1, ..., y_n > be the exterior algebra. The ``(cohomological) distinguished pairs" of a graded E-module M describe the growth of a minimal graded injective resolution of M. Roemer gave a duality theorem between the distinguished pairs of M and those of its dual M^*. In this paper, we show that under Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand correspondence, his theorem is translated into a natural corollary of local duality for (complexes of) graded S=K[x_1, >..., x_n]-modules. Using this idea, we also give a Z^n-graded version of Roemer's theorem.

Duality in algebra and topology

In this paper we take some classical ideas from commutative algebra, mostly ideas involving duality, and apply them in algebraic topology. To accomplish this we interpret properties of ordinary commutative rings in such a way that they can be extended to the more general rings that come up in homotopy theory. Amongst the rings we work with are the differential graded ring of cochains on a space, the differential graded ring of chains on the loop space, and various ring spectra, e.g., the Spanier-Whitehead duals of finite spectra or chromatic localizations of the sphere spectrum. Maybe the most…

Resolutions of length four which are Differential Graded Algebras

Let $P$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $F$ be a self-dual acyclic complex of finitely generated free $P$-modules. Assume that $F$ has length four and $F_0$ has rank one. We prove that $F$ can be given the structure of a Differential Graded Algebra with Divided Powers; furthermore, the multiplication on $F$ exhibits Poincaré duality. This result is already known if $P$ is a local Gorenstein ring and $F$ is a minimal resolution. The purpose of the present paper is to remove the unnecessary hypotheses that $P$ is local, $P$ is Gorenstein, and $F$ is minimal.

Poincaré duality and resonance varieties

We explore the constraints imposed by Poincaré duality on the resonance varieties of a graded algebra. For a 3-dimensional Poincaré duality algebra $A$, we obtain a fairly precise geometric description of the resonance varieties $\mathcal{R}^i_k(A)$.

Gorenstein algebras and toric bundles

We study commutative algebras with Gorenstein duality, i.e. algebras $A$ equipped with a non-degenerate bilinear pairing such that $\langle ac,b\rangle=\langle a,bc\rangle$ for any $a,b,c\in A$. If an algebra $A$ is Artinian, such pairing exists if and only if $A$ is Gorenstein. We give a description of algebras with Gorenstein duality as a quotients of the ring of differential operators by the annihilator of an explicit polynomial (or more generally formal polynomial series). This provides a calculation of Macaulay's inverse systems for (not necessarily Artinian) algebras with Gorenstein dual…

Distributive Lattices, Bipartite Graphs and Alexander Duality

A certain squarefree monomial ideal $H_P$ arising from a finite partially ordered set $P$ will be studied from viewpoints of both commutative algebra and combinatorics. First, it is proved that the defining ideal of the Rees algebra of $H_P$ possesses a quadratic Gröbner basis. Thus in particular all powers of $H_P$ have linear resolutions. Second, the minimal free graded resolution of $H_P$ will be constructed explicitly and a combinatorial formula to compute the Betti numbers of $H_P$ will be presented. Third, by using the fact that the Alexander dual of the simplicial complex $Δ$ whose Stan…

Topological model for h"-vectors of simplicial manifolds

Any manifold with boundary gives rise to a Poincare duality algebra in a natural way. Given a simplicial poset $S$ whose geometric realization is a closed orientable homology manifold, and a characteristic function, we construct a manifold with boundary such that graded components of its Poincare duality algebra have dimensions $h_k"(S)$. This gives a clear topological evidence for two well-known facts about simplicial manifolds: the nonnegativity of $h"$-numbers (Novik--Swartz theorem) and the symmetry $h"_k=h"_{n-k}$ (generalized Dehn--Sommerville relations).
