Hilbert functions were introduced for graded modules by David Hilbert in his study of invariant subrings.  Pierre Samuel introduced the Hilbert-Samuel coefficients of any m-primary ideal of a Noetherian local ring. The Hilbert coefficients have been found to be very useful in the study of singularities of algebraic varieties. Grothendieck and Serre found a deep connection between local cohomology and Hilbert functions. This helped understanding the computation of the postulation number in terms of largest non-vanishing degree of graded local cohomology modules of blowup algebras. A related notion is that of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of graded modules which helps in the study of Hilbert functions. Wolmer Vasconcelos introduced the Sally modules of ideals which have been effectively used to find properties of Hilbert polynomials and and blowup algebras. This workshop will introduce the fundamental techniques of local cohomology modules, Sally modules and Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity with applications to Hilbert functions of blowup algebras, bounds on Hilbert coefficients, behaviour of Hilbert functions under perturbations and connections with Sheaf cohomology and local cohomology.

Syllabi for the Courses of lectures

  • Shreedevi Masuti: The Sally module was introduced by W. V. Vasconcelos.  The Sally module is an important tool to interplay between Hilbert coefficients and the properties of the associated graded ring. In these series of lectures we will discuss the properties of the Sally module and its relation to the normal Hilbert coefficients and blow-up algebras.
  • Tony Puthenpurakal: Definition of local cohomology, Cech cohomology, vanishing theorems, non-vanishing theorems, Grothendieck duality for modules over local and graded rings, Grothendieck-Serre formula for Hilbert-Samuel functions
  • Vivek Mukundan: Itoh’s work on the normal Hilbert polynomial and his solution of Itoh’s conjecture for the normal Hilbert polynomial of maximal ideal in a Gorenstein local ring. Vanishing of the second local cohomology module of the extended Rees algebra and its applications to normal Hilbert polynomials.
  • Suprajo Das:Sheaf cohomology of projective varieties and its connections with local cohomology of graded modules. Riemann-Roch theorem for curves and its applications to Hilbert-Samuel coefficients and epsilon multiplicity.
  • Jugal Verma: Superficial sequences for good filtrations of ideals and their applications to the study of Hilbert coefficients, Theorems of Nagata, Huneke -Ooishi, Valabrega-Valla, Huckaba-Marley and Rossi-Valla.
  • V. Srinivas and V. Trivedi: Bounds on Hilbert coefficients, Hilbert functions under small perturbations.
  • N. V. Trung: Extended degree and its application to bounds on  Hilbert functions and regularity.
  • H. Ananthnarayan: Applications of Grothendieck-Serre formula  and Blancafort-Johnston-Verma formula for Hilbert-Samuel functions of filtrations of ideals to postulation and reduction number of a good filtration of ideals, Sally’s formulas for Hilbert-coefficients.
