We study differential graded algebras whose homology is an exterior algebra over a commutative ring R on a generator of degree n, and also certain types of differential modules over these DGAs. We obtain a complete classification when R is…

We construct a microlocalization of the rational Cherednik algebras $H$ of type $S_n$. This is achieved by a quantization of the Hilbert scheme $\Hilb^n\C^2$ of $n$ points in $\C^2$. We then prove the equivalence of the category of…

For each positive integer n, Khovanov and Rozansky constructed an invariant of links in the form of a doubly-graded cohomology theory whose Euler characteristic is the sl(n) link polynomial. We use Lagrangian Floer cohomology on some…

We construct a zig-zag from the once delooped space of pseudoisotopies of a closed $2n$-disc to the once looped algebraic $K$-theory space of the integers and show that the maps involved are $p$-locally $(2n-4)$-connected for $n>3$ and…

In an important paper, Zagier proved that certain half-integral weight modular forms are generating functions for traces of polynomials in the $j$-function. It turns out that Zagier's work makes it possible to algorithmically compute…

Let $\text{GL}(n) = \text{GL}(n, {\mathbb C})$ denote the complex general linear group and let $G \subset \text{GL}(n)$ be one of the classical complex subgroups $\text{O}(n)$, $\text{SO}(n)$, and $\text{Sp}(2k)$ (in the case $n = 2k$). We…

Let H be a finite dimensional non-semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. If H has no nontrivial skew-primitive elements, we find some bounds for the dimension of H_1, the second term in the…

Lower bounds on Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity are known for several types of commutative noetherian local rings, and rings with multiplicities which achieve these lower bounds are said to have minimal multiplicity. The first part of this…

Let A be a DGA over a field and X a module over H_*(A). Fix an $A_\infty$-structure on H_*(A) making it quasi-isomorphic to A. We construct an equivalence of categories between A_{n+1}-module structures on X and length n Postnikov systems…

Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be a compact oriented surface of genus $g$ with $n$ open disks removed. The algebra $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ was introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche and is a combinatorial quantization of the moduli…

We consider the problem of classifying (possibly noncommutative) R-algebras of low rank over an arbitrary base ring R. We first classify algebras by their degree, and we relate the class of algebras of degree 2 to algebras with a standard…

This thesis is a study of various ways of measuring the size and complexity of finitely generated modules over a Noetherian local ring. The classical example is the multiplicity or degree. Here we investigate several variants of the degree…

In our preceding paper we have introduced the notion of an $s$-homogeneous triple. In this paper we use this technique to study connected $s$-homogeneous algebras with two relations. For such algebras, we describe all possible pairs…

The Jordan algebra of the symmetric matrices of order two over a field $K$ has two natural gradings by $\mathbb{Z}_2$, the cyclic group of order 2. We describe the graded polynomial identities for these two gradings when the base field is…

For an arbitrary infinite field k of characteristic p > 0, we describe the structure of a block of the algebraic monoid M_n(k) (all n x n matrices over k), or, equivalently, a block of the Schur algebra S(n,p), whose simple modules are…

In his work on singularities, expanders and topology of maps, Gromov showed, using isoperimetric inequalities in graded algebras, that every real valued map on the $n$-torus admits a fibre whose homological size is bounded below by some…

We determine and classify all finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero whose Hopf coradicals are isomorphic to dual Radford algebras of dimension $4p$ for a prime $p>5$. In particular, we…

We show that Nichols algebras of most simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the projective special linear group over a finite field, corresponding to semisimple orbits, have infinite dimension. We introduce a new criterium to determine when a…

Let $X=\mathbb{A}^{n}$ be complex affine space, and let $T^{*}X$ be its cotangent bundle. For any exact Lagrangian $L\subset T^{*}X$, we define a new invariant, A, living in $ \text{Div}_{\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}}(L)$. We call this invariant…

This article is concerned with graded modules M with linear resolutions over a standard graded algebra R. It is proved that if such an M has Hilbert series $H_M(s)$ of the form $ps^d+qs^{d+1}$, then the algebra R is Koszul; if, in addition,…
