Numerical semigroups with multiplicity $m$ are parameterized by integer points in a polyhedral cone $C_m$, according to Kunz. For the toric ideal of any such semigroup, the main result here constructs a free resolution whose overall…
Given a commutative Noetherian graded domain $R = \bigoplus_{i\ge 0} R_i$ of dimension $d\geq 2$ with $\dim(R_0) \geq 1$, we prove that any unimodular row of length $d+1$ in $R$ can be completed to the first row of an invertible matrix…
A classical result of Micali asserts that a Noetherian local ring is regular if and only if the Rees algebra of its maximal ideal is defined by an ideal of linear forms. In this case, this defining ideal may be realized as a determinantal…

Let $I$ be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian complete local ring $R$. In the present paper, we establish the equality $\dim R/(I+\Ann_R M)=\dim M$ for all $I$-cofinite $R$-modules $M$.
For any ideal $I$ of finite projective dimension in a commutative noetherian local ring $R$, we prove that if the conormal module $I/I^2$ has finite projective dimension over $R/I$, then $I$ must be generated by a regular sequence. This…
Let $A$ be a Noetherian domain and $R$ be a finitely generated $A$-algebra. We study several features regarding the generic freeness over $A$ of an $R$-module. For an ideal $I \subset R$, we show that the local cohomology modules ${\rm…
We consider the problem of finding the isolated common roots of a set of polynomial functions defining a zero-dimensional ideal I in a ring R of polynomials over C. We propose a general algebraic framework to find the solutions and to…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension $d$, $M$ a commutative cancellative torsion-free monoid of rank $r$ and $P$ a finitely generated projective $R[M]$-module of rank $t$. $(1)$ Assume $M$ is $\Phi$-simplicial seminormal.…
We study the homological algebra of an R = Q/I module M using A-infinity structures on Q-projective resolutions of R and M. We use these higher homotopies to construct an R-projective bar resolution of M, Q-projective resolutions for all…
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…
Let A \subseteq B be cancellative abelian semigroups, and let R be an integral domain. We show that the semigroup ring R[B] can be decomposed, as an R[A]-module, into a direct sum of R[A]-submodules of the quotient ring of R[A]. In the case…
Let $Q=k[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $k$ with the standard $N^n$-grading. Let $\phi$ be a morphism of finite free $N^n$-graded $Q$-modules. We translate to this setting several notions and constructions that appear…
Let $R = k[x_1, \dotsc , x_n]$ denote the standard graded polynomial ring over a field $k$. We study certain classes of equigenerated monomial ideals with the property that the so-called complementary ideal has no linear relations on the…
Let $R$ be a standard graded Noetherian algebra over an infinite field $K$ and $M$ a finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-graded $R$-module. Then for any graded ideal $I\subseteq R_+$ of $R$, we show that there exist integers $e_1\geq e_2$ such…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s) \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ is some…
Let R be a local ring with maximal ideal m admitting a non-zero element a\in\fm for which the ideal (0:a) is isomorphic to R/aR. We study minimal free resolutions of finitely generated R-modules M, with particular attention to the case when…
