Matrix factorizations of generic polynomials

Abstract

We prove that the Buchweitz-Greuel-Schreyer Conjecture on the minimal rank of a matrix factorization holds for a generic polynomial of given degree and strength. The proof introduces a notion of the secondary strength of a polynomial, and uses a variant of the ultraproduct technique of Erman, Sam, and Snowden.
