Differential Graded Algebra - Examples of DGAs

Examples of DGAs

  • The Koszul complex is a DGA.
  • The Tensor algebra is a DGA with differential similar to that of the Koszul complex.
  • The Singular cohomology with coefficients in a ring is a DGA; the differential is given by the Bockstein homomorphism, and the product given by the cup product.
  • Differential forms on a manifold, together with the exterior derivation and the wedge-product form a DGA.
