Poincare Duality Algebras, Macaulay's Dual Systems, and Steenrod Operations Poincare Duality Algebras, Macaulay's Dual Systems, and Steenrod Operations Dagmar M Meyer PoincarE duality algebras originated in the work of topologists on the cohomology of closed manifolds, and Macaulay's dual systems in the study of irreducible ideals in polynomial algebras. These two… OL15170876W
