Let $Lambda_mathbbZ[x]$ be an exterior algebra on one generator with $|x|=n$, let $Gamma_mathbbZ[x]$ be a divided polynomial algebra with $|x_k|= kn$, and suppose that $Lambda_mathbbZ[x]$ is a module over $Gamma_mathbbZ[x]$.



The multiplication on $Gamma_mathbbZ[x]$ is given by
$$
x_kx_l = k+l choose k x_k+l.
$$




Question: Calculate a projective resolution for $Lambda_mathbbZ[x]$ as a module over $Gamma_mathbbZ[x]$.




Attempt



I'm attempting to answer this without any overly technical machinery (bar construction/Kozul complex etc). I will denote $mathbbZ_x_k$ a copy of the integers generated by $x_k$.



enter image description here



Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I am only interested in the case up to $mathbbZ_x_4$ as it is all I need for the calculation purposes.



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

          We can continue computing a minimal free resolution as you have done. If I haven't made a mistake, the answer, up through degree $4n$, is $Gamma_mathbbZ[x] cdot alpha_0, beta_2, gamma_3, delta_4, epsilon_3, zeta_4, eta_4, theta_4$ where the degree of each basis element is $n$ times the subscript. The differentials are:
          beginalign*
          d(alpha_0) &= 1 \
          d(beta_2) &= x_2 alpha_0 \
          d(gamma_3) &= x_3 alpha_0 \
          d(delta_4) &= x_4 alpha_0 \
          d(epsilon_3) &= 3gamma_3 - x_1 beta_2 \
          d(zeta_4) &= 6delta_4 - x_2 beta_2 \
          d(eta_4) &= 4delta_4 - x_1 gamma_3 \
          d(theta_4) &= x_1 epsilon_3 + 2zeta_4 - 3eta_4.

            The notation just means a free $Gamma_mathbbZ[x]$ module with generators $alpha_0, beta_2, ldots, theta_4$ of the appropriate degrees. Unfortunately, my knowledge of MathJax is not good enough to TeX up a diagram. If it helps, $alpha_0$ has homological degree $0$, $beta_2, gamma_3, delta_4$ has degree $1$, $epsilon_3, zeta_4, eta_4$ has degree $2$, and $theta_4$ has degree $3$.
