Title

Non-commutative desingularizations and cluster-tilting objects over Cohen-Macaulay rings

Abstract

Let M be a reflexive module over a Cohen-Macaulay local ring R and A = Hom(M,M). If A has finite global dimension, then it has been proposed to serve as a non-commutative analogue of desingularizations of Spec(R). In this talk, we will survey what is known about when such module M exists, and discuss the connections with birational geometry and representation theory of commutative rings. Part of the new results are joint work with Craig Huneke.
