This function currently just finds the elements whose boundary give the product of every pair of cycles that are chosen as generators. Eventually, all higher Massey operations will also be computed. The maximum degree of a generating cycle is specified in the option GenDegreeLimit, if needed.
Golod rings are defined by being those rings whose Koszul complex KR has a trivial Massey operation. Also, the existence of a trivial Massey operation on a DG algebra A forces the multiplication on H(A) to be trivial. An example of a ring R such that H(KR) has trivial multiplication, yet KR does not admit a trivial Massey operation is unknown. Such an example cannot be monomially defined, by a result of Jollenbeck and Berglund.
This is an example of a Golod ring. It is Golod since it is the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a flag complex whose 1-skeleton is chordal [Jollenbeck-Berglund].

Below is an example of a Teter ring (Artinian Gorenstein ring modulo its socle), and the computation in Avramov and Levin’s paper shows that H(A) does not have trivial multiplication, hence no trivial Massey operation can exist.
