Schreyer Resolutions over the Exterior Algebra

Abstract

Schreyer's algorithm is usually the fastest way to determine a (typically non-minimal) free resolution of a finitely presented module over a polynomial ring. We adapt a refined version of Schreyer's algorithm to compute free resolutions over the exterior algebra, relying on relative Groebner bases. We illustrate the use of our algorithm for the computation of cohomology of coherent sheaves over projective space, which by the BGG correspondence can be computed via free resolutions over the exterior algebra. Schreyer's method relies on a tree traversal and thus has the potential for parallel computations. We report on ongoing work on a massively parallel implementation, observing that Gnawali's parallel approach over polynomial rings can be carried over to our setting.

The art of counterpoint: a Mazzola-type model of three-voice first-species counterpoint

In this paper, we extend Mazzola's model of two-voice counterpoint to three-voice first-species counterpoint. The construction combines a fiber product over a shared lower voice with a harmonic mask and a two-stage maximization defining admitted successors. For the Fuxian dichotomy, we compute the successor relation and investigate connections with the Riemann dichotomy and neo-Riemannian transformations. Among pairs of same-mode triads, the model admits the most transporter realizations exactly at the pairs that generate Mazzola's Riemann monoid, but it does not single out the dominant-tonic pair, and it admits only 12 of the 192 parsimonious neo-Riemannian realizations, largely because it excludes transitions that keep a pair of voices stationary.

A parity obstruction to completeness of object cotorsion pairs

Fu, Guil Asensio, Herzog and Torrecillas asked whether a complete ideal cotorsion pair of object ideals in an exact category induces a complete cotorsion pair of objects. We give a negative answer in a Hom-finite, weakly idempotent complete Frobenius exact category. Our example consists of bounded complexes of finite-dimensional vector spaces with even total cohomology dimension. Two classes defined by cohomological support generate a complete ideal cotorsion pair, whereas the corresponding object cotorsion pair is neither special precovering nor special preenveloping. The obstruction is that cohomological truncations need not remain in the category, although their doubles do. Conceptually, this obstruction reflects the failure of the standard $t$-structure on the ambient derived category to restrict to the stable category of our example.

Just-Infinite Loops and Loop Algebras

Let $F$ be a field and let $L$ be a loop. We call $L$ just-infinite if it is infinite and every nontrivial normal subloop has finite index, and we call the possibly nonassociative loop algebra $F[L]$ just-infinite if it is infinite-dimensional and every nonzero two-sided ideal has finite codimension. We first prove that just-infiniteness of $F[L]$ always implies just-infiniteness of $L$. Next, using the Chein construction, we show for every infinite group $G$ that $M(G,2)$ is just-infinite if and only if $G$ is just-infinite, and that $F[M(G,2)]$ is just-infinite if and only if $F[G]$ is just-infinite. We extend the algebraic equivalence to the generalized Moufang doubles $M(G,*,g_0)$ whenever $G$ is infinite and nonabelian. Finally, we construct a single locally finite, residually finite, nonassociative Moufang loop $L$ for which $F[L]$ is residually finite-dimensional, locally finite-dimensional, and just-infinite over every field, and we explain why infinite nonassociative RA loops cannot be just-infinite.
