A differential criterion for complete intersections.
Sullivan associated a uniquely determined to any simply connected simplicial complex . This algebra (called minimal model) contains the total (and exactly) rational homotopy information of the space . In case is the total space of a principal -bundle, ( is a compact connected Lie-group) we associate a -equivariant model , which is a collection of “-homotopic” ’s with -action. will, in general, be different from the Sullivan’s minimal model of the space . contains the total rational...
Let A be a commutative algebra without zero divisors over a field k. If A is finitely generated over k, then there exist well known characterizations of all k-subalgebras of A which are rings of constants with respect to k-derivations of A. We show that these characterizations are not valid in the case when the algebra A is not finitely generated over k.
