The generators of a colon ideal with an application to the weak Lefschetz property for monomial almost complete intersections in three variables

Matthew Davidson Booth, Adela Vraciu

Much progress has been made in classifying when the weak Lefschetz property holds for where and $I=(x^{d_{1}},y^{d_{2}},z^{d_{3}…

Reflexive dg categories in algebra and topology

Matt Booth, Isambard Goodbody, Sebastian Opper

Reflexive dg categories were introduced by Kuznetsov and Shinder to abstract the duality between bounded and perfect derived categories. In particular this duality relates their Ho…

How to invert well-pointed endofunctors

Matt Booth

In this short note we observe that Kelly's transfinite construction of free algebras yields a way to invert well-pointed endofunctors. In enriched settings, this recovers construct…

On the weak Lefschetz property for ideals generated by powers of general linear forms

Matthew D. Booth, Pankaj Singh, Adela Vraciu

We provide a description of initial ideals for almost complete intersections generated by powers of general linear forms and prove that WLP in a fixed degree holds when the num…

Nonsmooth Calabi-Yau structures for algebras and coalgebras

Matt Booth, Joseph Chuang, Andrey Lazarev

We show that generalised Calabi-Yau dg (co)algebras are Koszul dual to generalised symmetric dg (co)algebras, without needing to assume any smoothness or properness hypotheses. Sim…
