In recent work, we give an affirmative answer to this question when $g \\leq 4$ by completely classifying the possible Betti tables of Koszul algebras defined by height-two ideals of four quadrics. Continuing this work, the current paper proves a structure theorem for Koszul algebras defined by four quadrics. We show that all these Koszul algebras are LG-quadratic, proving that an example of Conca of a Koszul algebra that is not LG-quadratic is minimal in terms of number of defining equations. We then characterize precisely when these rings are absolutely Koszul, and establish the equivalence of the absolutely Koszul and Backelin--Roos properties up to field extensions for such rings (in characteristic zero). The combination of the above paper with the current one provides a fairly complete picture of all Koszul algebras defined by $g \\leq 4$ quadrics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-01-24T21:16:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "koszul algebra", "absolutely koszul", "iyengar ask", "characteristic zero", "lg-quadratic" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
