Let %‘A be the category of finite dimensional right modules for a quasi-hereditary algebra A. In the context of various types of Kazhdan-Lusztig theories, we study both the homological dual A! = Extt, (A/ rad(A), A/ rad(A)) and the graded algebra grA = @rad(A)j/rad(A)j+‘. For example, we investigate a condition introduced in [6], and here called (SKL’), which guarantees that A!’ E gr A. A stren...
