Commutative algebra is a branch of mathematics which provides systematic tools to study problems in many areas of mathematics that include algebraic geometry, singularity theory, topology, number theory and recently combinatorics. In the last decade, Commutative Algebra has witnessed a number of spectacular developments which include the resolution of long-standing conjectures. The proposed workshop aims to train and familiarize participants with some of these developments that have occurred in these areas. In particular, the workshop focuses on study of the singularities of rational curves, various multiplicities that are associated with an ideal, study of homological methods in commutative algebra, a brief introduction to invariant theory, and Waring problem for forms.
