These notes are based on a series of three lectures given (online) by the first named author at the workshop "Higher Structures and Operadic Calculus" at CRM Barcelona in June 2021. The aim is to give a concise introduction to rational…

We prove that the cohomology algebra of elliptic arrangements depends only on the poset of layers. In the particular case of braid elliptic arrangements, we study the cohomology as representation and we compute some Hodge numbers. Finally,…

We study the exactness of certain combinatorially defined complexes which generalize the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a geometric lattice. The main results pertain to complex reflection arrangements and their restrictions. In particular, we…

We define a basic class of algebras which we call homotopy path algebras. We find that such algebras always admit a cellular resolution and detail the intimate relationship between these algebras, stratifications of topological spaces, and…

The complement of an arrangement A of a finite number of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space has the structure of a poset of spaces indexed by the intersection poset, L(A). The space corresponding to G in L(A) is homotopy equivalent to…

Various concepts associated with quadratic algebras admit natural generalizations when the quadratic algebras are replaced by graded algebras which are finitely generated in degree 1 with homogeneous relations of degree N. Such algebras are…

The faces of the braid arrangement form a monoid. The associated monoid algebra -- the face algebra -- is well-studied, especially in relation to card shuffling and other Markov chains. In this paper, we explore the action of the symmetric…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite subgroup of $\SL_2(\C)$. We consider $\Gamma$-fixed point sets in Hilbert schemes of points on the affine plane $\C^2$. The direct sum of homology groups of components has a structure of a representation of the…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a complex simple Lie algebra and let $\Psi$ be an extremal set of positive roots. One associates with $\Psi$ an infinite dimensional Koszul algebra $\bold S_\Psi^{\lie g}$ which is a graded subalgebra of the locally…

Let X and Y be finite-type CW-complexes (X connected, Y simply connected), such that the rational cohomology ring of Y is a k-rescaling of the rational cohomology ring of X. Assume H^*(X,Q) is a Koszul algebra. Then, the homotopy Lie…

After recalling the construction of a graded Lie bracket on the space of cyclic multilinear forms on a vector space V, due to Georges Pinczon and Rosane Ushirobira, we prove this construction gives a structure of quadratic associative…

We determine the Gerstenhaber structure on the Hochschild cohomology ring of a class of self-injective special biserial algebras. Each of these algebras is presented as a quotient of the path algebra of a certain quiver. In degree one, we…

Let $V$ be a degree $d$, reduced hypersurface in $\mathbb{CP}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 1$, and fix a generic hyperplane, $H$. Denote by $\mathcal{U}$ the (affine) hypersurface complement, $\mathbb{CP}^{n+1}- V \cup H$, and let $\mathcal{U}^c$ be the…

Let $\g$ be a reductive Lie algebra and $V$ a $\g$-semisimple module. In this article, we study the category $\G$ of graded finite-dimensional representations of $\g \ltimes V$. We produce a large class of truncated subcategories, which are…

We consider quantum symmetric algebras, FRT bialgebras and, more generally, intertwining algebras for pairs of Hecke symmetries which represent quantum hom-spaces. The paper makes an attempt to investigate Koszulness and Gorensteinness of…

We compute the Poincare polynomial and the cohomology algebra with rational coefficeints of the manifold M_n of real points of the moduli space of algebraic curves of genus 0 with n labeled points. This cohomology is a quadratic algebra,…

We present a unifying framework for the key concepts and results of higher Koszul duality theory for N-homogeneous algebras: the Koszul complex, the candidate for the space of syzygies, and the higher operations on the Yoneda algebra. We…

Here we announce the construction and properties of a big commutative subalgebra of the Kirillov algebra, called big algebra, attached to a finite dimensional irreducible representation of a complex semisimple Lie group. They are…

If X is the complement of a hypersurface in P^n, then Kohno showed that the nilpotent completion of the fundamental group is isomorphic to the nilpotent completion of the holonomy Lie algebra of X. When X is the complement of a hyperplane…

We study the cohomology H*(A) = Ext_A(k,k) of a locally finite, connected, cocommutative Hopf algebra A over k = F_p. Specifically, we are interested in those algebras A for which H*(A) is generated as an algebra by H^1(A) and H^2(A). We…
