Differential graded (DG) algebras are powerful tools from rational homotopy theory. We survey some recent applications of these in the realm of homological commutative algebra.
We study the general properties of commutative differential graded algebras in the category of representations over a reductive algebraic group with an injective central cocharacter. Besides describing the derived category of differential…
These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…
In this article we survey recent results on rigid dualizing complexes over commutative algebras. We begin by recalling what are dualizing complexes. Next we define rigid complexes, and explain their functorial properties. Due to the…
This paper is a review of concepts from graded commutative algebra with specific attention given to length and multiplicity. The author's motivation for this paper comes from the study of equivariant cohomology in algebraic topology where…
This is the fourth (and last) prepublication version of a book on derived categories, that will be published by Cambridge University Press. The purpose of the book is to provide solid foundations for the theory of derived categories, and to…
To any trivalent plane graph embedded in the sphere, Casals and Murphy associate a differential graded algebra (dg-algebra), in which the underlying graded algebra is free associative over a commutative ring. Our first result is the…
This is an overview on derived nonhomogeneous Koszul duality over a field, mostly based on the author's memoir arXiv:0905.2621. The paper is intended to serve as a pedagogical introduction and a summary of the covariant duality between…
Let $G$ be a group with identity $e$. Let $R$ be a $G$-graded commutative ring and $M$ a graded $R$-module. In this paper, we introduce the concept of graded classical and graded strongly classical 2-absorbing second submodules of graded…
We study differential graded algebras whose homology is an exterior algebra over a commutative ring R on a generator of degree n, and also certain types of differential modules over these DGAs. We obtain a complete classification when R is…
In this paper, we introduce and study differential graded (DG for short) polynomial algebras. In brief, a DG polynomial algebra $\mathcal{A}$ is a connected cochain DG algebra such that its underlying graded algebra $\mathcal{A}^{\#}$ is a…
A differential module is a module equipped with a square-zero endomorphism. This structure underpins complexes of modules over rings, as well as differential graded modules over graded rings. We establish lower bounds on the class--a…
In this note, we consider a situation that is generally used as an intermediate technical step in proving the Artin-Rees lemma but otherwise is not much discussed in introductory accounts of commutative algebra. I hope to show in this note…
We define a Brauer group for differential graded algebras over differential graded graded-commutative or commutative base rings. Based on previous work we give an explicit classification of dg-fields, and compute the so-defined Brauer group…
We study Ore localisation of differential graded algebras. Further we define dg-prime rings, dg-semiprime rings, and study the dg-nil radical of dg-rings. Then, we define dg-essential submodules, dg-uniform dimension, and apply all this to…
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
In this note we develop a coalgebraic approach to the study of solutions of linear difference equations over modules and rings. Some known results about linearly recursive sequences over base fields are generalized to linearly (bi)recursive…
Differential graded categories enhance our understanding of triangulated categories appearing in algebra and geometry. In this survey, we review their foundations and report on recent work by Drinfeld, Dugger-Shipley, ..., Toen and…
The Chevalley-Eilenberg differential calculus and differential operators over N-graded commutative rings are constructed. This is a straightforward generalization of the differential calculus over commutative rings, and it is the most…
Inspired by the intrinsic formality of graded algebras, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for strongly uniqueness of DG-enhancements. This approach offers a generalization to linearity over any commutative ring. In particular,…
