Title |
Group algebras and commutative rings |
Abstract |
The goal of this talk will be to describe a bridge between the modular representation theory of finite groups and modules over polynomial rings. This has given us new insights and results concerning modular representations, and has also lead to unexpected results in commutative algebra. The talk with be based on joint work with Avramov, Benson, Carlson, Buchweitz, Krause, and Claudia Miller. |
