Let A be a commutative k-algebra, where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, and let M be an A-module. We consider the following question: Under what conditions on A and M is it possible to find a connection on M? We…
We develop a conformal duality for spacelike graphs in Riemannian and Lorentzian three-manifolds that admit a Riemannian submersion over a Riemannian surface whose fibers are the integral curves of a Killing vector field, which is timelike…
Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a prefect field of positive characteristic. Let $I$ be an unmixed ideal in $R$ and let $J$ be a generic link of $I$ in $S=R[u_{ij}]_{c \times r}$. We describe the parameter test submodule…
Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$. Suppose there exists be a non-zero $A$ module $M$ of finite length and finite projective dimension such that $\ell\ell(M)$, the Lowey length of $M$, is equal to…
The Milnor number, \mu(X,0), and the singularity genus, p_g(X,0), are fundamental invariants of isolated hypersurface singularities (more generally, of local complete intersections). The long standing Durfee conjecture (and its…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We show that any complete duality pair gives rise to a theory of relative homological algebra, analogous to Gorenstein homological algebra. Indeed Gorenstein homological algebra over a commutative Noetherian…
We deal with the complete-intersection property of maximally differential ideals. Also, we connect the Gorenstein homology of derivations to the Gorenstein property of the base rings. These equipped with some applications.
We study homological properties of a locally complete intersection ring by importing facts from homological algebra over exterior algebras. One application is showing that the thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a locally…
We use the anti-equivalence between Cohen-Macaulay complexes and coherent sheaves on formal schemes to shed light on some older results and prove new results. We bring out the relations between a coherent sheaf M satisfying an S_2 condition…
We discuss the evidence for and implications of a conjecture that the universal abelian cover of a Q-Gorenstein surface singularity with finite local homology (i.e., the singularity link is a Q-homology sphere) is a complete intersection…
We propose a concept of module liaison that extends Gorenstein liaison of ideals and provides an equivalence relation among unmixed modules over a commutative Gorenstein ring. Analyzing the resulting equivalence classes we show that several…
We prove that any arithmetically Gorenstein curve on a smooth, general hypersurface $X\subset \bbP^{4}$ of degree at least 6, is a complete intersection. This gives a characterisation of complete intersection curves on general type…
We characterize the canonical algebras such that for all dimension vectors of homogeneous modules the corresponding module varieties are complete intersections (respectively, normal). We also investigate the sets of common zeros of…
Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein local ring and let $CMS(A)$ be its stable category of maximal CM $A$-modules. Suppose $CMS(A) \cong CMS(B)$ as triangulated categories. Then we show (1) If $A$ is a complete intersection of codimension…
Let $(A,\mathfrak m)$ be a two-dimensional excellent normal Gorenstein local domain containing an algebraically closed filed. Let $I =H^0(X,\mathcal{O}_X(-Z)) \subset A$ be an $\mathfrak m$-primary integrally closed ideal represented by an…
Let $(X,0)$ be an isolated complete intersection complex singularity ($X$ can also be smooth at 0). Let $K$ be its link, $\cal X$ its canonical contact structure and $\D_X$ the complex vector bundle associated to $\cal X$. We prove that the…
A classical model for the extension of singular spacetime geometries across their singularities is presented. The regularization introduced by this model is based on the following observation. Among the geometries that satisfy Einstein's…
Let $(R,\fm)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. If $R$ has a canonical module, then there are some interesting results about duality for this situation. In this paper, we show that one can indeed obtain similar these results in the case $R$…
We construct a class of exactly solved (0,2) heterotic compactifications, similar to the (2,2) models constructed by Gepner. We identify these as special points in moduli spaces containing geometric limits described by non-linear sigma…
We define a variant of intersection space theory that applies to many compact complex and real analytic spaces $X$, including all complex projective varieties; this is a significant extension to a theory which has so far only been shown to…
