Multiplicities and Chern Classes in Local Algebra (Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics) Book

In recent years there have been new developments in the field of commutative algebra which led to proofs of several conjectures which had been open for many years. Many of these proofs rely on techniques from topology and algebraic geometry, making them difficult for students and even researchers specializing in algebra to read. This book describes the mathematical background necessary to prove these results and sets them in their algebraic context.Read More

  • Product Description

    The theory of local Chern characters used in commutative algebra originated in topology about thirty years ago, and from there was introduced in algebraic geometry. This book describes the theory in an algebraic setting, presenting recent research results and important algebraic applications, some of which come from the author's own work. It concentrates on the background in commutative algebra and homological algebra and describes the relations between these subjects, including extensive discussions of the homological conjectures and of the use of the Frobenius map. It will be particularly useful for graduate students and researchers.
