The tensor functor from the category of -algebras into the category of differential modules
with -simplicial faces.
S.V. Lapin
Abstract
In the present paper the tensor functor from the category of -algebras into the category of differential modules with -simplicial faces is constructed. Further, it is showed that this functor sends homotopy equivalent -algebras into homotopy equivalent differential modules with -simplicial faces.
In [1]-[7] the homotopy technique of differential modules with -simplicial faces was developed. This homotopy technique is closely related to the homotopy technique of -differential modules that developed in [8]-[16]. On the other hand, in [4] by any -algebra the tensor differential module with -simplicial faces was constructed. By using the technique of these tensor differential modules with -simplicial faces that defined by -algebras the concepts of cyclic homology, dihedral homology and reflexive homology of -algebras were developed in [17]-[19]. The fact [4] that by each -algebra corresponds a tensor differential module with -simplicial faces give rise the very important and interesting problem of extension of this correspondence until a tensor functor from the category of -algebras into the category of differential modules with -simplicial faces.
The present paper is devoted to solving the specified above problem. The paper consists of three paragraphs. In the first paragraph, we recall the necessary information from [1]-[7] related to the notion of a differential module with -simplicial faces. In the second paragraph, we recall the necessary information from [20]-[22] related to the notion of an -algebra. Moreover, in this paragraph, we pay special attention to the problem of correctly writing signs in the structural relations of -algebras because it is very important in the further considerations. In the third paragraph, we construct a tensor functor from the category of -algebras into the category of differential modules with -simplicial faces that continues the correspondence from [4] between -algebras and tensor differential modules with -simplicial faces. Further, we show that this tensor functor sends homotopy equivalent -algebras into homotopy equivalent differential modules with -simplicial faces.
We proceed to precise definitions and statements. All modules and maps of modules considered in this paper are assumed to be -modules and -linear maps of modules, respectively, where is an arbitrary commutative ring with unity.
§ 1. Necessary information about
differential modules with -simplicial faces.
In what follows, by a bigraded module we mean any bigraded module , , , and by a differential bigraded module, or, briefly, a differential module , we mean any bigraded module endowed with a differential of bidegree .
Recall that a differential module with simplicial faces is defined as a differential module together with a family of module maps , , which are maps of differential modules and satisfy the simplicial commutation relations , . The maps are called the simplicial face operators or, more briefly, the simplicial faces of the differential module .
Now, we recall the notion of a differential module with -simplicial faces [1] (see also [3]-[7]), which is a homotopy invariant analogue of the notion of a differential module with simplicial faces.
Let be the symmetric group of permutations on a -element set. Given an arbitrary permutation and any -tuple of nonnegative integers , where , we consider the -tuple , where acts on the -tuple in the standard way, i.e., permutes its components. For the -tuple , we define a -tuple by the following formulae
[TABLE]
where each is the number of those elements of on the right of that are smaller than .

Simplest examples of differential modules with -simplicial faces are differential modules with simplicial faces. Indeed, given any differential module with simplicial faces , we can define by setting , , and , , thus obtaining the differential module with -simplicial faces .
It is worth mentioning that the notion of an differential module with -simplicial faces specified above is a part of the general notion of a differential -simplicial module introduced in [3] by using the homotopy technique of differential Lie modules over curved colored coalgebras.
Now, we recall that a map of differential modules with simplicial faces is defined as a map of differential modules that satisfies the relations , .

§ 3. The tensor functor from the category of -algebras
into the category of differential modules with -simplicial faces.
In [4] (see also [1]) it was shown that each -algebra defines the tensor differential module with -simplicial faces . Let us consider the construction of this tensor differential module with -simplicial faces.
Given any -algebra , consider the tensor differential module defined by

The following assertion establish the connection between morphisms of -algebras and morphisms of differential modules with -simplicial faces.
Theorem 3.2. Given any morphism of -algebras , the family of maps defined by – is the morphism of differential modules with -simplicial faces.
Proof. For the family of maps defined by – , we need to check that the relations holds. It is clearly that at we have because . It is easy to see that, for any collection of numbers , where , and any permutation , we have that each partition satisfies the condition or the condition . It follows the required relation . Similarly, for any collection of numbers , where , and any permutation , we have that each partition satisfies the condition or the condition . It follows the required relation . Now, we check that the maps
