Abstract

We study ring-theoretic and homological properties of the quadratic dual (or Koszul dual) En ! of the Fomin–Kirillov algebras En; these algebras are connected N-graded and are defined for n ≥ 2. We establish that the algebra En ! is module finite over its center (and thus satisfies a polynomial identity), is Noetherian, and has Gelfand–Kirillov dimension n/2 for each n ≥ 2. We also observe that En ! is not prime for n ≥ 3. By a result of Roos, En is not Koszul for n ≥ 3, so neither is En ! for n ≥ 3. Nevertheless, we prove that En ! is Artin–Schelter (AS-)regular if and only if n = 2, and that En ! is both AS-Gorenstein and AS-Cohen–Macaulay if and only if n = 2, 3. We also show that the depth of En ! is ≤ 1 for each n ≥ 2, conjecture that we have equality, and show that this claim holds for n = 2, 3. Several other directions for further examination of En ! are suggested at the end of this article.
