Abstract
We prove a version of Koszul duality and the induced derived equivalence for Adams connected A-algebras that generalizes the classical Beilinson-Ginzburg-Soergel Koszul duality. As an immediate consequence, we give a version of the Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand correspondence for Adams connected A-algebras.

We give various applications. For example, a connected graded algebra A is Artin-Schelter regular if and only if its Ext-algebra ExtA(k,k) is Frobenius. This generalizes a result of Smith in the Koszul case. If A is Koszul and if both A and its Koszul dual A! are noetherian satisfying a polynomial identity, then A is Gorenstein if and only if A! is. The last statement implies that a certain Calabi-Yau property is preserved under Koszul duality.
