R. Heitmann's proof of the Direct Summand Conjecture has opened a new approach to the study of homological conjectures in mixed characteristic. Inspired by his work and by the methods of almost ring theory, we discuss a normalized length…
We relate the cohomology of the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a discriminantal arrangement to the local system cohomology of the complement. The Orlik-Solomon algebra of such an arrangement (viewed as a complex) is shown to be a linear…
We prove that for generalised partitions of unity ${\phi_i \mid i \in I}$ and coverings $\mathfrak{U}:={\phi_i^{-1} (R \setminus {0}) \mid i \in I}$ of a topological space $X$ the cohomology of abstract $\mathfrak{U}$-local cochains…
This article investigates the relationship between Betti numbers of finitely generated modules over a Noetherian local ring $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ and the structure of formal local cohomology modules. We establish a connection between the…
Let T be a commutative Noetherian local ring of dimension at least two and R=T[x_1,...,x_n] a polynomial ring in n variables over T. Consider R as a graded ring with deg T = 0 and deg x_i = 1 for all i. Let I=R_+ and f a homogeneous…
Let X be a locally symmetric space associated to a reductive algebraic group G defined over Q. L-modules are a combinatorial analogue of constructible sheaves on the reductive Borel-Serre compactification of X; they were introduced in…
We use symplectic cohomology to study the non-uniqueness of symplectic structures on the smooth manifolds underlying affine varieties. Starting with a Lefschetz fibration on such a variety and a finite set of primes, the main new tool is a…
We study the ring of differential operators D(X) on the basic affine space X=G/U of a complex semisimple group G with maximal unipotent subgroup U. One of the main results shows that the cohomology group H^*(X,O_X) decomposes as a finite…
Given a morphism $f: X \rightarrow S$ of complex algebraic varieties and a constructible sheaf $\mathcal{G}$ on $X$, we compute the local monodromy of $Rf_*(\mathcal{G})$ and $Rf_!(\mathcal{G})$ in terms of the local monodromy of…
We give a combinatorial description of local cohomology modules of a graded module over a semigroup ring, with support at the graded maximal ideal. This combinatorial framework yields Hochster-type formulas for the Hilbert series of such…
Let $R$ be a noetherian commutative ring and $f_1,\dots,f_c$ be a regular sequence in $R$. We introduce a framework to study $Supp(H^j_I(R/(f_1,\dots,f_c)))$ by linking the Koszul cohomology of $H^j_I(R)$ on the sequence $f_1,\dots,f_c$ and…
We investigate Hopf algebroids in the category of $L$-complete modules over a commutative Noetherian regular complete local ring. The main examples are provided by the Hopf algebroids associated to Lubin-Tate spectra in the K(n)-local…
Using Saito's theory of mixed Hodge modules, we study a generalization of Hellus-Schenzel's "cohomologically complete intersection" property. This property is equivalent to perversity of the shifted constant sheaf. We relate the generalized…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. For a compact Lie group $G$ and an elementary abelian $p$-group $A$ of $G$, one may define the Weyl group $W_A$ of $A$ in a similar fashion as defining the Weyl group of a maximal torus, such that $W_A$ acts on…
For positive integers m >= n >= p, we compute the GL_m x GL_n-equivariant description of the local cohomology modules of the polynomial ring S of functions on the space of m x n matrices, with support in the ideal of p x p minors. Our…
For a projective variety V in P^n over a field of characteristic zero, with homogeneous ideal I in A = k[x0,x1,...,xn], we consider the local cohomology modules H^i_I(A). These have a structure of holonomic D-module over A, and we…
We discuss for an affine variety $Y$ embedded in affine space $X$ two sets of integers attached to $Y\subseteq X$ via local and de Rham cohomology spectral sequences. We give topological interpretations, study them in small dimension, and…

We study the 0-th local cohomology module of the jacobian ring of a singular reduced complex projective hypersurface X, by relating it to the sheaf of logarithmic vector field along X. We investigate the analogies between the local…
