We concern the VIGRE's conjecture; namely the complexity of a Specht module is the p-weight of the corresponding partition if and only if the partition is not p by p. In abelian defect case, we calculate the cohomological variety of the…

Using Lusztig's geometric classification, we find the reducibility points of a standard module for the affine Hecke algebra, in the case when the inducing data is generic. This recovers the known result of Muic-Shahidi for representations…

A $\mathbb{Z}^d$-graded differential $R$-module is a $\mathbb{Z}^d$-graded $R$-module $D$ equipped with an endomorphism, $\delta$, that squares to zero. For $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$, this paper establishes a lower bound on the rank of such a…

Let $R$ be a standard graded algebra over a field. We investigate how the singularities of $R$ affect its $h$-vector, which is the coefficients of the numerator of its Hilbert series. The most concrete consequences of our work asserts that…

Let $V:f=0$ be a hypersurface of degree $d \geq 3$ in the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, $n \geq 3$, having only isolated singularities. Let $M(f)$ be the associated Jacobian algebra and $H: \ell=0$ be a hyperplane in…

We prove that the depth formula holds for two finitely generated Tor-independent modules over Cohen-Macaulay local rings if one of the modules considered has finite reducing projective dimension (for example, if it has finite projective…

The Buchsbaum-Eisenbud-Horrocks Conjecture predicts that if M is a non-zero module of finite length and finite projective dimension over a local ring R of dimension d, then the i-th Betti number of M is at least d choose i. This conjecture…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring. We define the minimal $j$-multiplicity and almost minimal $j$-multiplicity of an arbitrary $R$-ideal on any finite $R$-module. For any ideal $I$ with minimal $j$-multiplicity or almost minimal…

We use the theory of resolutions for a given Hilbert function to investigate the multiplicity conjectures of Huneke and Srinivasan and Herzog and Srinivasan. To prove the conjectures for all modules with a particular Hilbert function, we…

For a simplicial complex $\Delta$, the graded Betti number $\beta_{i,j}(k[\Delta])$ of the Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta]$ over a field $k$ has a combinatorial interpretation due to Hochster. Terai and Hibi showed that if $\Delta$ is the…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$. By $\mathcal{S}_j(M)$, we denote the $j$th symmetric power of $M$ ($j$th graded component of the symmetric algebra $\mathcal{S}_R(M)$). The purpose of this paper…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Henselian Cohen-Macaulay local ring and let CM(A) be the category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay $A$-modules. We construct $T \colon CM(A)\times CM(A) \rightarrow mod(A)$, a subfunctor of $Ext^1_A(-, -)$ and use it to…

Let $C\subset \mathbb P^3$ be a curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $M(C)$ denote its Hartshorne-Rao module. We study how the geometry of $C$ influences whether $M(C)$ satisfies the Weak and Strong…

We study the linear map sending the numerator of the rational function representing the Hilbert series of a module to that of its r-th Veronese submodule. We show that the asymptotic behaviour as r tends to infinity depends on the…

We prove upper bounds for the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity of standard graded Gorenstein algebras. The main tool that we use is Boij-S\"oderberg theory to obtain a decomposition of the Betti table of a Gorenstein algebra as the sum of…

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…

We study properties of graded maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over an N-graded locally finite, Auslander Gorenstein, and Cohen-Macaulay algebra of dimension two. As a consequence, we extend a part of McKay correspondence in dimension two to…

The notion of Frobenius Betti numbers generalizes the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity theory and serves as an invariant that measures singularity. However, the explicit computation of the Frobenius Betti numbers of rings has been limited to very…

We show that if a graded submodule of a Noetherian module cannot be written as a proper intersection of graded submodules, then it cannot be written as a proper intersection of submodules at all. More generally, we show that a natural…

Given a grading by an abelian group G on a semisimple Lie algebra L over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, we classify up to isomorphism the simple objects in the category of finite-dimensional G-graded L-modules. The…
