Title

Homological criteria for minimal multiplicity

Abstract

There are well-known lower bounds on the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity of a Noetherian local ring, depending on what type of ring is under consideration (e.g., complete intersection, Gorenstein, Cohen-Macaulay). Rings for which these lower bounds are achieved are known to have nice properties, including homological ones. In this talk we shall show that many of these desirable homological properties characterize rings with minimal multiplicity.
