In analogy to the skeletons of a simplicial complex and their Stanley--Reisner ideals we introduce the skeletons of an arbitrary monomial ideal $I\subset S=K[x_1,...,x_n]$. This allows us to compute the depth of $S/I$ in terms of its…

The dark matter may consist not of one elementary particle but of different species, each of them contributing a fraction of the observed dark matter density. A major theoretical difficulty with this scenario --dubbed multi-component dark…

Let $M$ and $N$ be modules over an artin algebra such that $M$ degenerates to $N$. We show that any submodule of $M$ degenerates to a submodule of $N$. This suggests that a composition series of $M$ will in some sense degenerate to a…

We present short and elementary proofs of two theorems of Huckaba and Marley, while generalizing them at the same time to the case of a module. The theorems concern a characterization of the depth of the associated graded ring of a…

Decompositions on manifolds appear in various geometric structures. Necessary and sufficient conditions for quotient spaces of decompositions to be manifolds are widely characterized. We characterize necessary and sufficient conditions to…

Given arbitrary monomial ideals $I$ and $J$ in polynomial rings $A$ and $B$ over a field $K$, we investigate the Stanley depth of powers of the sum $I+J$, and their quotient rings, in $A\otimes_K B$ in terms of those of $I$ and $J$. Our…

This paper presents a new decoding for polynomial residue codes, called the minimum degree-weighted distance decoding. The newly proposed decoding is based on the degree-weighted distance and different from the traditional minimum Hamming…

In this thesis we compute the Hilbert-Kunz functions of two-dimensional rings of type ADE by using representations of their indecomposable, maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules in terms of matrix factorizations, and as first syzygy modules of…

We prove that if $I$ is a monomial ideal with linear quotients in a ring of polynomials $S$ in $n$ indeterminates and $\operatorname{depth}(S/I)=n-2$, then $\operatorname{sdepth}(S/I)=n-2$ and, if $I$ is squarefree,…

We give a decomposition as a direct sum of indecomposable modules of several types of Specht modules in characteristic $2$. These include the Specht modules labelled by hooks, whose decomposability was considered by Murphy. Since the main…

For $n,m\in \mathbb{N}$, let $H_{n,m}$ be the dual of the Radford algebra of dimension $n^{2}m$. We present new finite-dimensional Nichols algebras arising from the study of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $H_{n,m}$. Along the way, we…

For all n > 0 there is a homomorphism from the smooth concordance group of knots in dimension 2n + 1 to an algebraically defined group called the rational algebraic concordance group. This algebraic concordance group splits as a direct sum…

Let $\lambda$ be a general length function for modules over a Noetherian ring R. We use $\lambda$ to introduce Hilbert series and polynomials for R[X]-modules, measuring the growth rate of~$\lambda$. We show that the leading term $\mu$ of…

Commutative rings in which every prime ideal is the intersection of maximal ideals are called Hilbert (or Jacobson) rings. We propose to define classical Hilbert modules by the property that {\it classical prime} submodules are the…

Let $\mathbf m=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ be the maximal graded ideal of $S:=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We present a new method for computing the Hilbert depth of powers of $\mathbf m$.

We compute the Stanley depth for a particular, but important case, of the quotient of complete intersection monomial ideals. Also, in the general case, we give sharp bounds for the Stanley depth of a quotient of complete intersection…

Given a standard graded polynomial ring $R=k[x_1,...,x_n]$ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero and a graded $k$-subalgebra $A=k[f_1,...,f_m]\subset R$, one relates the module $\Omega_{A/k}$ of K\"ahler $k$-differentials of $A$ to the…

In this presentation we shall deal with some aspects of the theory of Hilbert functions of modules over local rings, and we intend to guide the reader along one of the possible routes through the last three decades of progress in this area…

Repetitiveness in projective and injective resolutions and its influence on homological dimensions are studied. Some variations on the theme of repetitiveness are introduced, and it is shown that the corresponding invariants lead to very…

The Helmholtz decomposition splits a sufficiently smooth vector field into a gradient field and a divergence-free rotation field. Existing decomposition methods impose constraints on the behavior of vector fields at infinity and require…
