In this paper we take some classical ideas from commutative algebra, mostly ideas involving duality, and apply them in algebraic topology. To accomplish this we interpret properties of ordinary commutative rings in such a way that they can…

Given a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring we compare several sets of invariants (micro-invariants, Apery invariants and invariants of the tangent cone) and give explicit formulas relating them. We show that, in fact, they coincide…

We investigate actions of cyclic groups on polynomial rings with two variables, and the minimal free resolution of the corresponding invariant ring. In particular, we fully classify several cases, including the case the defining ideal has…

Local log-regular rings are a certain class of Cohen-Macaulay local rings that are treated in logarithmic geometry. Our paper aims to provide purely commutative ring theoretic proof of some ring-theoretic properties of local log-regular…

The classical Riordan groups associated to a given commutative ring are groups of infinite matrices (called Riordan arrays) associated to pairs of formal power series in one variable. The Fundamental Theorem of Riordan Arrays relates matrix…

The meaning of quantum group transformation properties is discussed in some detail by comparing the (co)actions of the quantum group with those of the corresponding Lie group, both of which have the same algebraic (matrix) form of the…

We establish two conditions equivalent to coamenability for type I locally compact quantum groups. The first condition is concerned with the spectra of certain convolution operators on the space…

A duality is discussed for Lie group bundles vs. certain tensor categories with non-simple identity, in the setting of Nistor-Troitsky gauge-equivariant K-theory. As an application, we study C*-algebra bundles with fibre a fixed-point…

In this paper we study invariant rings arising in the study of finite dimensional algebraic structures. The rings we encounter are graded rings of the form $K[U]^{\Gamma}$ where $\Gamma$ is a product of general linear groups over a field…

Let $\Uq$ be a quantum group. Regarding a (noncommutative) space with $\Uq$-symmetry as a $\Uq$-module algebra $A$, we may think of equivariant vector bundles on $A$ as projective $A$-modules with compatible $\Uq$-action. We construct an…

Let K be a compact Lie group and W a finite-dimensional real K-module. Let X be a K-stable real algebraic subset of W. Let I(X) denote the ideal of X in R[W] and let I_K(X) be the ideal generated by I(X)^K. We find necessary conditions and…

We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…

This article concerns linear parts of minimal resolutions of finitely generated modules over commutative local, or graded rings. The focus is on the linearity defect of a module, which marks the point after which the linear part of its…

The aim of this note is to study the class of one dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local rings, $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ say, possessing a canonical ideal $K$ which is a reduction of $\mathfrak{m}$. We call $R$ to have canonical reduction $K$. We show…

We develop a new technique for studying monomial ideals in the standard polynomial rings $A[X_1,\ldots,X_d]$ where $A$ is a commutative ring with identity. The main idea is to consider induced ideals in the semigroup ring…

In this paper, we establish the global analogues of some dualities and equivalences in local algebra by developing the theory of relative Cohen-Macaulay modules. Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring (not necessarily local) with identity…

We describe the equivariant cohomology ring of rationally smooth projective embeddings of reductive groups. These embeddings are the projectivizations of reductive monoids. Our main result describes their equivariant cohomology in terms of…

In this paper, we study the Cohen-Macaulayness of non-affine normal semigroups in $\mathbb{Z}^n$. We do this by establishing the following four statements each of independent interest: 1) a Lazard type result on $I$-supported elements of…

Vogan and Barbasch-Vogan attach two similar invariants to representations of a reductive Lie group, one by an algebraic process, the other analytic. They conjectured that the two invariants determine each other in a definite manner. Here we…

We describe Mui invariants in terms of Milnor operations and give a simple proof for Mui's theorem on rings of invariants of polynomial tensor exterior algebras with respect to the action of finite general linear groups. Moreover, we…
