Midwest Commutative Algebra and Geometry Meeting: A Conference in Honor of Joseph Lipman; May 17-24, 2004; Purdue University, IN

中西部交换代数与几何会议：纪念约瑟夫·李普曼的会议交换代数在过去二十年中取得了大量的活动和成功，解决了重要的猜想，发展了新的方向，并发现了与数学其他部分的意想不到的联系，从拓扑学到组合学，从计算机代数到统计学。也许最有成果的相互作用仍然是交换代数和代数几何之间的相互作用。我们的会议将延续中西部地区在这些领域会议的悠久传统。我们将汇集许多领先的国内和国际专家在以下两个领域的核心重要性的主题：-奇点的解决-奇点理论- Rees代数和brianon - skoda定理-对偶理论和同调代数。

MIDWEST COMMUTATIVE ALGEBRA AND GEOMETRY MEETING: A CONFERENCE IN HONOR OF JOSEPH LIPMANCommutative algebra has seen a great deal of activityand success over the past two decades, with the solutionof important conjectures, the development of new directions,and the discovery of unexpected connections to other partsof mathematics, ranging from topology to combinatorics andfrom computer algebra to statistics.Perhaps the most fruitful interaction remains the onebetween commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. Ourconference will continue the long standing tradition ofMidwest meetings in these fields. We will bring togethermany of the leading national and international expertson the following topics that have been of centralimportance to both areas: - Resolution of singularities - Singularity theory - Rees algebras and Briancon-Skoda theorems - Duality theory and homological algebra.
