Koszul rings are graded rings which have played an important role in algebraic topology, noncommutative algebraic geometry and in the theory of quantum groups. One aspect of the theory is to compare the module theory for a Koszul ring and its Koszul dual. There are dualities between subcategories of graded modules; the Koszul modules.

This book introduces recent developments in the study of algebras defined by quadratic relations. One of the main problems in the study of these (and similarly defined) algebras is how to control their size. A central notion in solving this problem is the notion of a Koszul algebra, which was introduced in 1970 by S. Priddy and then appeared in many areas of mathematics, such as algebraic geometry, representation theory, non commutative geometry, $K$-theory, number theory, and non commutative linear algebra.The authors give a coherent exposition of the theory of quadratic and Koszul algebras, including various definitions of Koszulness, duality theory, Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt-type theorems for Koszul algebras, and the Koszul deformation principle. In the concluding chapter of the book, they explain a surprising connection between Koszul algebras and one-dependent discrete-time stochastic processes. The book can be used by graduate students and researchers working in algebra and any of the above-mentioned areas of mathematics.

The 43 research papers demonstrate the application of recent developments in the representation theory of artin algebras and related topics. Among the algebras considered are tame, bi- serial, cellular, factorial hereditary, Hopf, Koszul, non- polynomial growth, pre-projective, Termperley-Lieb, tilted, and quasi-tilted. Other topics include tilting and co-tilting modules and generalizations as *-modules, exceptional sequences of modules and vector bundles, homological conjectives, and vector space categories. The treatment assumes knowledge of non- commutative algebra, including rings, modules, and homological algebra at a graduate or professional level. No index.

After the development of manifolds and algebraic varieties in the previous century, mathematicians and physicists have continued to advance concepts of space. This book and its companion explore various new notions of space, including both formal and conceptual points of view, as presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop held at the Institut Henri Poincaré in 2015. The chapters in this volume cover a broad range of topics in mathematics, including diffeologies, synthetic differential geometry, microlocal analysis, topos theory, infinity-groupoids, homotopy type theory, category-theoretic methods in geometry, stacks, derived geometry, and noncommutative geometry. It is addressed primarily to mathematicians and mathematical physicists, but also to historians and philosophers of these disciplines.

This refereed collection of research papers and survey articles reflects the interplay of finite-dimensional algebras with other areas (algebraic geometry, homological algebra, and the theory of quantum groups). Current trends are presented from the discussions at the AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Research Conference at the University of Washington (Seattle). The volume features several excellent expository articles which will introduce inspiration to researchers in related areas, as it includes original papers spanning a broad spectrum of representation theory.

Includes a paper that deals the connective K homology and cohomology of finite groups $G$. This title uses the methods of algebraic geometry to study the ring $ku DEGREES*(BG)$ where $ku$ denotes connective complex K-theory. It describes the variety in terms of the category of abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$ for primes $p$ dividing the group

Includes a paper that provides necessary and sufficient conditions on a couple of Banach lattices of measurable functions $(X_{0}, X_{1})$ which ensure that, for all weight functions $w_{0}$ and $w_{1}$, the couple of weighted lattices $(X_{0, w_{0}}, X_{1, w_{1}})$ is a Calderon-Mityagin cou
