A periodic algebra is an algebra which has a periodic projective resolution over its enveloping algebra. Until now, there are several classes of algebras which are proved to be periodic. For example, the author of this paper proved that selfinjective algebras of finite representation type are periodic [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 214, No. 6, 990-1000 (2010; Zbl 1214.16006)]. For a state of art about this topic, the reader may refer to the survey by \textit{K. Erdmann} and \textit{A. Skowroński} [in Trends in representation theory of algebras and related topics. EMS Series of Congress Reports, 201-251 (2008; Zbl 1210.16012)]. Among the most notable examples of finite-dimensional periodic algebras are the preprojective algebras of Dynkin graphs, which all have period \(6\). This interesting fact was first proved by Ringel and Schofield through a calculation of the minimal projective bimodule resolutions of such algebras; [see for example, \textit{S. Brenner} et al., Algebr. Represent. Theory 5, No. 4, 331-367 (2002; Zbl 1056.16003)]. Later, Auslander and Reiten gave an elegant functorial argument for this periodicity, making use of the fact that these preprojective algebras can be realized as stable endomorphism rings of Cohen-Macaulay modules (in fact, as stable Auslander algebras) over \(2\)-dimensional simple hypersurface singularities; [see \textit{M. Auslander} and \textit{I. Reiten}, Representation theory of algebras. CMS Conf. Proc. 18, 39-50 (1996; Zbl 0859.16008)]. Actually, their arguments establish a slightly weaker version of this periodicity, showing only that the sixth power of the syzygy functor is the identity. Motivated by these results, Buchweitz develops the functor category arguments of Auslander and Reiten to deduce the (full) periodicity of the preprojective algebras of Dynkin graphs from the isomorphisms \(\Omega^2\simeq Id\) in the corresponding stable categories of CM-modules. More generally, his work shows how periodic algebras can arise as stable Auslander algebras of finite-type categories, and in particular as stable endomorphism rings of \(\Omega\)-periodic modules; [see \textit{R.-O. Buchweitz}, Contemp. Math. 229, 81-109 (1998; Zbl 0934.16009)]. Recently \textit{O. Iyama} [Adv. Math. 210, No. 1, 22-50 (2007; Zbl 1115.16005) and ibid. 210, No. 1, 51-82 (2007; Zbl 1115.16006)] has developed higher-dimensional analogues of much of the classical Auslander-Reiten theory, including a theory of higher Auslander algebras. Thus it is natural to look for generalizations of Auslander, Reiten and Buchweitz's work on periodicity to this setting. This paper under review aims to generalize Buchweitz's results to explain how the 2-periodicity of the syzygy functor in the category of CM-modules implies the 4-periodicity of the bimodule resolutions for the appropriate endomorphism rings. The author shows in fact that under certain mild conditions we could obtain periodic algebras more generally as endomorphism rings of periodic \(d\)-cluster-tilting objects in a triangulated category
