semifreeResolution(...,StartDegree=>...) -- Option to specify the degree at which semifreeResolution starts killing cycles

Controls the first hom-degree at which semifreeResolution attempts to kill homology. Hom-degrees strictly below StartDegree are populated only by the initial free cover and the adjoinment of presentation relations at hom-degree 1. The default value is 1.

Functions with optional argument named StartDegree:

• acyclicClosure(...,StartDegree=>...) -- Option to specify the degree to start computing the acyclic closure.
• getGenerators(...,StartDegree=>...) -- First homological degree in which to search for new algebra generators
• killCycles(...,StartDegree=>...) -- First homological degree from which killCycles begins searching for cycles
• minimalModel(...,StartDegree=>...) -- see minimalModel -- Build the minimal DG algebra resolution of a quotient ring
• minimalSemifreeResolution(...,StartDegree=>...) -- Option to specify the degree at which minimalSemifreeResolution starts killing cycles
• semifreeResolution(...,StartDegree=>...) -- Option to specify the degree at which semifreeResolution starts killing cycles
