COVID-19 Update
As a result of Covid-19, the seminar for this semester will be a mix of virtual and in-person talks. The default Zoom link for the seminar is https://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/9502605167 (sometimes we will have to use a different meeting link, if Michael K cannot host that day).

Title: The Rank of Syzygies
Abstract: I will explain a notion of rank for the relations amongst the equations of a projective variety. This notion generalizes the classical notion of rank of a quadric and is just as interesting! I will spend most of the talk developing this notion but will also explain one result which tells us that, for a randomly chosen canonical curve, you expect all the linear syzygies to have the lowest possible rank. This is a sweeping generalization of old results of Andreotti-Mayer, Harris-Arbarello and Green, which tell us that canonical curves are defined by quadrics of rank four.
Michael Brown
Title: Tate resolutions as noncommutative Fourier-Mukai transforms
Abstract: This is joint work with Daniel Erman. The classical Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand (or BGG) correspondence gives an equivalence between the derived categories of a polynomial ring and an exterior algebra. It was shown by Eisenbud-Fløystad-Schreyer in 2003 that the BGG correspondence admits a geometric refinement, which sends a sheaf on projective space to a complex of modules over an exterior algebra called a Tate resolution. The goal of this talk is to reinterpret Tate resolutions as noncommutative analogues of Fourier-Mukai transforms, and to discuss some applications.
Peter Wei
Title: Geometric Syzygy Conjecture in char p, with reveries from Ogus’ result on a versal deformation of K3 surfaces
Abstract: We aim to study syzygies of canonical curves in char p. I will briefly introduce how to translate the questions on curves to questions on K3 surfaces, where the Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundle plays a great role. I will show how to use Ogus’ result on a versal deformation of K3 surfaces, to help us resolve the case for a general K3 surface. And finally, I will sketch the proof of Geometric Syzygy Conjecture for even genus curve assuming an effective lower bound on the characteristics.
Michael Perlman
Title: Mixed Hodge structure on local cohomology with support in determinantal varieties
Abstract: Given a closed subvariety Z in a smooth complex variety, the local cohomology modules with support in Z are functorially endowed with structures as mixed Hodge modules, implying that they are equipped with Hodge and weight filtrations that subtly measure the singularities of Z. We will discuss new calculations of these filtrations in the case when Z is a generic determinantal variety. As an application, we obtain the Hodge ideals for the determinant hypersurface. Joint work with Claudiu Raicu.
