Book Synopsis Topics in the Homological Theory of Modules Over Commutative Rings by : Melvin Hochster
Download or read book Topics in the Homological Theory of Modules Over Commutative Rings written by Melvin Hochster. This book was released on 1975-12-31. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains expository lectures by Melvin Hochster from the CBMS Regional Conference in Mathematics held at the University of Nebraska, June 1974. The lectures deal mainly with recent developments and still open questions in the homological theory of modules over commutative (usually, Noetherian) rings. A good deal of attention is given to the role ``big'' Cohen-Macaulay modules play in clearing up some of the open questions. A modest knowledge of commutative rings and familarity with (the long exact sequences for) Tor and Ext should suffice as a background for the reader.
