Title

Introduction to trace ideals with applications

Abstract

The well-known trace map on matrices can be generalized to a map on any module over a commutative ring. The image of this map is a trace ideal. The modern theory of trace ideals has found far-reaching applications, for instance, in calculating centers of endomorphism rings, the classification of rings, and in approaching conjectures concerning Ext-rigidity. This talk will serve as a gentle introduction to trace ideals with some applications.
