Suppose that k is a field of characteristic zero, X is an r by s matrix of indeterminates, where r \leq s, and R = k[X] is the polynomial ring over k in the entries of X. We study the local cohomology modules H^i_I(R), where I is the ideal…

We discuss recent progress on syzygies of curves, including proofs of Green's and Gonality Conjectures as well as applications of Koszul cycles to the study of the birational geometry of various moduli spaces of curves. We prove a number of…

Let V be a holomorphic bundle over a complex manifold M, and s be a holomorphic section of V. We study different types of cohomology associated to the Koszul complex induced by s. When M is complete, these cohomologies are isomorphic to…

Let R be a local complete ring. For an R-module M the canonical ring map R\to End_R(M) is in general neither injective nor surjective; we show that it is bijective for every local cohomology module M := H^h_I(R) if H^l_I(R) = 0 for every…

Motivated by the notion of geometrically linked ideals, we show that over a Gorenstein local ring $R$, if a Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module $M$ of grade $g$ is linked to an $R$-module $N$ by a Gorenstein ideal $c$, such that $Ass_R(M)\cap…

Let ${\sf k}$ be a field, $S$ be a bigraded ${\sf k}$-algebra, and $S_\Delta$ denote the diagonal subalgebra of $S$ corresponding to $\Delta = \{ (cs,es) \; | \; s \in \mathbb{Z} \}$. It is know that the $S_\Delta$ is Koszul for $c,e \gg…

The arithmetic rank of an ideal in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field is the smallest number of equations needed to define its vanishing locus set-theoretically. We determine the arithmetic rank of the generic $m$-residual…

We study the local cohomology modules for the secant variety of lines of a smooth projective variety $Y$ and for higher secant varieties of smooth projective curves. We show that the local cohomological defect in the first case is related…

We prove that if $f:R \rightarrow S$ is a local homomorphism of noetherian local rings of finite flat dimension and $M$ is a non-zero finitely generated $S$-module whose Gorenstein flat dimension over $R$ is bounded by the difference of the…

We show that if $Z$ is a local complete intersection subvariety of a smooth complex variety $X$, of pure codimension $r$, then $Z$ has $k$-rational singularities if and only if $\widetilde{\alpha}(Z)>k+r$, where $\widetilde{\alpha}(Z)$ is…

In this paper we exhibit an example of a three-dimensional regular local domain (A, n) having a height-two prime ideal P with the property that the extension PA^ of P to the n-adic completion A^ of A is not integrally closed. We use a…

In this article, we propose a question on the annihilators of positive Koszul homologies of a system of parameters of an almost complete intersection $R$. The question can be stated in terms of the acyclicity of certain (finite) residual…

A graded Artinian algebra $A$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property if there exists a linear form $\ell$ such that the multiplication map by $\ell:[A]_i\to [A]_{i+1}$ has maximum rank in every degree. The linear forms satisfying this property…

Developing a previous idea of Faltings, we characterize the complete intersections of codimension 2 in P^n, n>=3, over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic, among l.c.i. X, as those that are subcanonical and…

We consider complete intersection ideals in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero that are stable under the action of the symmetric group permuting the variables. We determine the possible representation types for these…

In this paper we prove the following generalization of a result of Hartshorne: Let $(S,\n)$ be a regular local ring of dimension $4$. Assume that $x,y,u,v$ is a regular system of parameters for $S$ and $a:=xu+yv$. Then for each finitely…

Let $(Q, \mathfrak{n})$ be a regular local ring and let $f_1, \ldots, f_c \in \mathfrak{n}^2$ be a $Q$-regular sequence. Set $(A, \mathfrak{m}) = (Q/(\mathbf{f}), \mathfrak{n}/(\mathbf{f}))$. Further assume that the initial forms $f_1^*,…

Deciding the presence of the weak Lefschetz property often is a challenging problem. In this work an in-depth study is carried out in the case of Artinian monomial ideals with four generators in three variables. We use a connection to…

Let $(R,m)$ be a local Noetherian ring, let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module and let $(F_{\bullet},\partial_{\bullet})$ be a free resolution of $M$. We find a uniform bound $h$ such that the Artin-Rees containment $I^n F_i\cap Im \,…
