A linear system of plane curves satisfying multiplicity conditions at points in general position is called special if the dimension is larger than the expected dimension. A (-1) curve is an irreducible curve with self intersection -1 and…
Conventional wisdom holds that any region of 3-space contains infinitely many points, and the Planck length scale determines the uncertainty in every measurement of distance between two separate points. Against such a backdrop, this…
The arithmetic degree, the smallest extended degree, and the homological degree are invariants that have been proposed as alternatives of the degree of a module if this module is not Cohen-Macaulay. We compare these degree functions and…
We introduce the notion of modular $q$-holonomic modules whose fundamental matrices define a cocycle with improved analyticity properties and show that the generalised $q$-hypergeometric equation, as well as three key $q$-holonomic modules…
We define a module that is an extension of the diagonal harmonics and whose graded Frobenius characteristic is conjectured to be the symmetric function expression which appears in `the Delta conjecture' of Haglund, Remmel and Wilson…
This is the addendum to the paper "On the Multiplicity Problem and the Isomorphism Problem for the Four Subspace Algebra" Communications in Algebra, 40:6 (2012), 2005-2036 (DOI: 10.1080/00927872.2011.570830). We give here the full proof of…
We consider simple modules over the McConnell--Pettit algebras. We show that both induction and contraction yield simple modules for the extremes of the global dimension.
This survey discusses hyperbolicity properties of moduli stacks and generalisations of the Shafarevich Hyperbolicity Conjecture to higher dimensions. It concentrates on methods and results that relate moduli theory with recent progress in…
In this short note we prove a lemma about the dimension of certain algebraic sets of matrices. This result is needed in our paper arXiv:1201.1672. The result presented here has also applications in other situations and so it should appear…
An extension $B\subset A$ of finite dimensional algebras is bounded if the $B$-$B$-bimodule $A/B$ is $B$-tensor nilpotent, its projective dimension is finite and $\mathrm{Tor}_i^B(A/B, (A/B)^{\otimes_B j})=0$ for all $i, j\geq 1$. We show…
Given a complex algebraic variety X, we define a natural number called the motivic dimension which measures the amount of transcendental (co)homology of X. It is zero precisely when all the (co)homolgy is spanned by algebraic cycles. Most…
We prove an extension of the theorem of Drinfeld, Grinberg and Kazhdan to arcs with arbitrary residue field. As an application we show that the embedding codimension is generically constant on each irreducible subset of the arc space which…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture states that in every finite, nontrivial set family closed under taking unions there is an element contained in at least half of all the sets of the family. We investigate two new directions with respect to…
In this paper, we study homological dimensions of algebras linked by recollements of derived module categories, and establish a series of new upper bounds and relationships among their finitistic or global dimensions. This is closely…
We show that if H is a hereditary finite dimensional algebra, M is a finitely generated H-module and B is a semisimple subalgebra of the endomorphism algebra of M, then the representation dimension of the corresponding triangular matrix…
We recognise Harada's generalized categories of diagrams as a particular case of modules over a monad defined on a finite direct product of additive categories. We work in the dual (albeit formally equivalent) situation, that is, with…
In its most basic form, Dubreil's Theorem states that for an ideal $I$ defining a codimension $2$, arithmetically Cohen--Macaulay subscheme of projective $n$-space, the number of generators of $I$ is bounded above by the minimal degree of a…
The work proves that, for three-dimensional upper triangular groups over a field of odd characteristic with an abelian unipotent subgroup, the ring of invariants is polynomial if and only if the unipotent subgroup is generated by…
We give explicit criteria that imply the resurgence of a self-radical ideal in a regular ring is strictly smaller than its codimension, which in turn implies that the stable version of Harbourne's conjecture holds for such ideals. This…
We investigate the Lyubeznik numbers, and the injective dimension of local cohomology modules, of finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-algebras. We prove that the mixed characteristic Lyubeznik numbers and the standard ones agree locally for…
