Let $R$ be a local principal ideal ring of length two, for example, the ring $R=\Z/p^2\Z$ with $p$ prime. In this paper we develop a theory of normal forms for similarity classes in the matrix rings $M_n(R)$ by interpreting them in terms of…
We characterize the seminormality of an affine semigroup ring in terms of the dualizing complex, and the normality of a Cohen-Macaulay semigroup ring by the "shape" of the canonical module. We also characterize the seminormality of a toric…
We address the open problem of existence of singularities for the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. Using a combination of rigourous results and numerical computations, we describe a countable family of self-similar singularities. Our…
A semidualizing module is a generalization of Grothendieck's dualizing module. For a local Cohen-Macaulay ring $R$, the ring itself and its canonical module are always realized as (trivial) semidualizing modules. Reasonably, one might…
Let X be the moduli space of SL(n,C), SU(n), GL(n,C), or U(n)-valued representations of a rank r free group. We classify the algebraic singular stratification of X. This comes down to showing that the singular locus corresponds exactly to…
A commutative ring $R$ is stable provided every ideal of $R$ containing a nonzerodivisor is projective as a module over its ring of endomorphisms. The class of stable rings includes the one-dimensional local Cohen-Macaulay rings of…
Using the concept of $d$-collapsibility from combinatorial topology, we define chordal simplicial complexes and show that their Stanley-Reisner ideals are componentwise linear. Our construction is inspired by and an extension of "chordal…
We first generalize classical Auslander-Reiten duality for isolated singularities to cover singularities with a one-dimensional singular locus. We then define the notion of CT modules for non-isolated singularities and we show that these…
We establish the principle of specialization of integral dependence for submodules of finite colength of free modules, as part of the general algebraic-geometric theory of the Buchsbaum--Rim multiplicity. Then we apply the principle to the…
A finite poset $P$ is called "simplicial", if it has the smallest element $\hat{0}$, and every interval $[\hat{0}, x]$ is a boolean algebra. The face poset of a simplicial complex is a typical example. Generalizing the Stanley-Reisner ring…
We provide a large class of discrete amenable groups for which the complex group ring has several C*-completions, thus providing partial evidence towards a positive answer to a question raised by Rostislav Grigorchuk, Magdalena Musat and…
Playing off against each other the real and complex structures, we elucidate the local structure of certain representation spaces in the world of Poisson geometry. Particular cases of these spaces arise as moduli spaces of semistable…
We study the intersections of general Schubert varieties X_w with permuted big cells, and give an inductive degeneration of each such "Schubert patch" to a Stanley-Reisner scheme. Similar results had been known for Schubert patches in…
One of the main aims of this paper is to give a large class of strongly solid compact quantum groups. We do this by using quantum Markov semi-groups (QMS's) and non-commutative Riesz transforms. We introduce a property for QMS's of central…
Inspired from the work of P. Scholze on the finiteness of \(\mathbf{F}_{p}\)-cohomology groups of proper rigid-analytic varieties over \(p\)-adic fields, Zavyalov recently introduced the notion of almost coherent rings, which plays a key…
This paper gives a new approximation theory for finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian rings, which unifies two famous approximation theorems; one is due to Auslander and Bridger and the other is due to Auslander and…
This paper uses dualities between facet ideal theory and Stanley-Reisner theory to show that the facet ideal of a simplicial tree is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. The proof involves showing that the Alexander dual (or the cover dual, as we…
For a torsion-free virtually polycyclic group $\Gamma$, we give a canonical homomorphism form certain finite-dimensional cochain complex to the $\Q$-polynomial de Rham complex of the simplicial classifying space $B\Gamma$ which induces a…
The foundations of Ringel duality for split quasi-hereditary algebras over commutative Noetherian rings are strengthened. Several descriptions and properties of the smallest resolving subcategory containing all standard modules over split…
We investigate the algebra of an ample groupoid, introduced by Steinberg, over a semifield S. In particular, we obtain a complete characterization of congruence-simpleness for Steinberg algebras of second-countable ample groupoids,…
