We give conjectures on the "asymptotic" behaviour of the Hilbert series of (quotients by) generic ideals in the exterior algebra, as the number of variables tend to infinity. Our conjectures are supported by extensive computer calculations.

Let $R$ be a noetherian ring and $M$ a finite $R$-module. With a linear form $\chi$ on $M$ one associates the Koszul complex $K(\chi)$. If $M$ is a free module, then the homology of $K(\chi)$ is well-understood, and in particular it is…

The first sections contain a survey of the application of the Knuth-Robinson-Schensted corerspondence to the computation of Groebner bases of determinantal ideals. We also set up a conceptual framework for this application in terms of…

We associate to each $r$-multigraded, locally finitely generated ideal in the "large polynomial ring" on countably many indeterminates a power series in $r$ variables; this power series is the limit in the adic topology of the numerators of…

For a reduced monomial ideal B in R=k[X_1,...,X_n], we write H^i_B(R) as the union of {Ext^i(R/B^[d],R)}_d, where {B^[d]}_d are the "Frobenius powers of B". We describe H^i_B(R)_p, for every p in Z^n, in the spirit of the Stanley-Reisner…

We investigate the minimal number of generators $\mu$ and the depth of divisorial ideals over normal semigroup rings. Such ideals are defined by the inhomogeneous systems of linear inequalities associated with the support hyperplanes of the…

We prove a duality theorem for graded algebras over a field that implies several known duality results : graded local duality, versions of Serre duality for local cohomology and of Suzuki duality for generalized local cohomology, and…

In this paper we give an algorithm to recognize triangulable locally nilpotent derivations in dimension three. In case the given derivation is triangulable, our method produces a coordinate system in which it exhibits a triangular form.

In this paper we give an algorithmic characterization of rank two locally nilpotent derivations in dimension three. Together with an algorithm for computing the plinth ideal, this gives a method for computing the rank of a locally nilpotent…

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal of a polynomial ring $R$. In this paper we determine a number $B$ such that $\Ass (I^n/I^{n+1}) = \Ass (I^{B}/I^{B+1})$ for all $n\geq B$.

Let S be a standard N^r-graded algebra over a local ring A, and let M be a finitely generated Z^r-graded S-module. We characterize the Cohen-Macaulayness of M in terms of the vanishing of certain sheaf cohomology modules. As a consequence,…

We give a new proof of the classical result due to Rodney Y. Sharp and Peter Vamos on the dimension of tensor product of a finite number of field extensions of a given field.

Let R be a commutative, noetherian, local ring. Topological Q-vector spaces modelled on full subcategories of the derived category of R are constructed in order to study intersection multiplicities.

We show that the category of projective modules over a graded commutative ring admits a triangulation with respect to module suspension if and only if the ring is a finite product of graded fields and exterior algebras on one generator over…

One of the main open questions in liaison theory is whether every homogeneous Cohen-Macaulay ideal in a polynomial ring is glicci, i.e. if it is in the G-liaison class of a complete intersection. We give an affirmative answer to this…

Let G be an affine algebraic group acting on an affine variety X. We present an algorithm for computing generators of the invariant ring K[X]^G in the case where G is reductive. Furthermore, we address the case where G is connected and…

After attaching explicitly to the M\"obius strip an invertible module over the ring of real polynomial functions on the real circle, we expound as directly as possible the many faces and the main algebraic properties of invertible modules.…

Let $\mathfrak a$ denote an ideal of a local ring $(R, \mathfrak m).$ Let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. There is a systematic study of the formal cohomology modules $\varprojlim \HH^i(M/\mathfrak a^nM), i \in \mathbb Z.$ We…

Let K be any field and G be a finite group. Noether's problem asks whether the fixed field is rational (=purely transcendental) over K. We will prove that if G is a non-abelian p-group of order p^n containing a cyclic subgroup of index p…

Let K be any field and G be a finite group. We will prove that, if K is any field, p an odd prime number, and G is a non-abelian group of exponent p with |G|=p^3 or p^4 satisfying [K(\zeta_p):K] <= 2, then K(G) is rational over K. We will…
