Discussions on Berger's Conjecture |
Abstract |
In this talk, we will discuss a conjecture of R. Berger dating back to around 1963. He conjectured that in a reduced one dimensional local complete algebra over a perfect field k, the torsion submodule of the module of differentials should capture information about the regularity of the algebra. We will talk about some recent partial developments in this direction. These recent results were obtained in joint work with Craig Huneke and Vivek Mukundan. |
