Abstract

We construct the super Koszul complex of a free supercommutative AA-module VV of rank pqp|q and prove that its homology is concentrated in a single degree and it yields an exact resolution of AA. We then study the dual of the super Koszul complex and show that its homology is concentrated in a single degree as well and isomorphic to Πp+qA\Pi^{p+q} A, with Π\Pi the parity changing functor. Finally, we show that, given an automorphism of VV, the induced transformation on the only non-trivial homology class of the dual of the super Koszul complex is given by the multiplication by the Berezinian of the automorphism, thus relating this homology group with the Berezinian module of VV.
