The $N$-Koszul algebras are $N$-homogeneous algebras which satisfy an homological property. These algebras are characterised by their Koszul complex: an $N$-homogeneous algebra is $N$-Koszul if and only if its Koszul complex is acyclic.…

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…

If $M$ is the complement of a hyperplane arrangement, and $A=H^*(M,\k)$ is the cohomology ring of $M$ over a field of characteristic 0, then the ranks, $\phi_k$, of the lower central series quotients of $\pi_1(M)$ can be computed from the…

The topology of periodic spaces has attracted a lot of interest in recent years in order to study and classify crystalline structures and other large homogeneous data sets, such as the distribution of galaxies in cosmology. In practice,…

In this paper we show that if $\Lambda=\amalg_{i\geq 0}\Lambda_i$ is a Koszul algebra with $\Lambda_0$ isomorphic to a product of copies of a field, then the minimal projective resolution of $\Lambda_0$ as a right $\Lambda$-module provides…

We consider real forms of relatively minimal rational surfaces F_m. Connected components of moduli of real non-singular curves in |-2K_{F_m}| had been classified recently for m=0, 1, 4 in math.AG/0312396. Applying similar methods, here we…

Information transfer between triangle meshes is of great importance in computer graphics and geometry processing. To facilitate this process, a smooth and accurate map is typically required between the two meshes. While such maps can…
