Non-homogeneous Koszul duality in representation theory

Abstract

Motivated by the representation theory of symplectic reflection algebras, deformed preprojective algebras, and graded Hecke algebras, we consider filtered algebras $U$ whose associated graded is Koszul. The Koszul dual of $U$, as defined by Positselski, is a curved dg-algebra. We establish an exact equivalence between the unbounded derived category of $U$ and an explicit quotient of the homotopy category of injective modules over the dual curved dg-algebra. This recovers a special case of a result of Positselski. In the case where $U$ has finite global dimension, the quotient is trivial and hence the unbounded derived category of $U$ is equivalent to the homotopy category of injective modules over the dual curved dg-algebra.
