      In 1945 Gerhard Hochschild published "On the cohomology groups of an associative algebra" in the Annals of Mathematics and thereby created what is now called Hochschild theory. In 1963, Murray Gerstenhaber proved that the ...

    • Infeasibility certificates for linear matrix inequalities

      Farkas' lemma is a fundamental result from linear programming providing linear certi cates for infeasibility of systems of linear inequalities. In semidefinite programming, such linear certificates only exist for strongly ...

    • 2040a - Lefschetz Properties in Algebra, Geometry and Combinatorics (hybrid meeting) 

      [OWR-2020-31] (2020) - (27 Sep - 03 Oct 2020)
      The themes of the workshop are the Weak Lefschetz Property - WLP - and the Strong Lefschetz Property - SLP. The name of these properties, referring to Artinian algebras, is motivated by the Lefschetz theory for projective ...

      [OWP-2017-15] Constantinescu, Alexandru; Kahle, Thomas; Varbaro, Matteo (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2017-05-24)
      We build a new bridge between geometric group theory and commutative algebra by showing that the virtual cohomological dimension of a Coxeter group is essentially the regularity of the Stanley–Reisner ring of its nerve. ...

    • 2104 - Logarithmic Vector Fields and Freeness of Divisors and Arrangements: New perspectives and applications (online meeting) 

      [OWR-2021-5] (2021) - (24 Jan - 30 Jan 2021)
      The central topic of the workshop was the notion of logarithmic vector fields along a divisor in a smooth complex analytic or algebraic variety, i.e., the vector fields on the ambient variety tangent to the divisor. ...
