Song of Stanley

Stanley Depth of Multigraded Modules

The Stanley’s Conjecture on Cohen-Macaulay multigraded modules is studied especially in dimension 2. In codimension 2 similar results were obtained by Herzog, Soleyman-Jahan and Yassemi. As a consequence of our results Stanley’s Conjecture holds in 5 variables.

Bounds of Stanley depth

We answer positively a question of Asia Rauf for the case of intersections of three prime ideals generated by disjoint sets of variables and we present several inequalities on Stanley depth. This is a detailed presentation of our talk at the conference on ”Fundamental structures of algebra” in honor of Prof. Serban Basarab at his 70-th anniversary. Let S = K[x1, . . . , xn] be a polynomial alge...

Toni Morrison’s Song of Solomon: A Paragon of Trauma Fiction

Morrison’s Song of Solomon could be viewed as a paragon of trauma fiction. Since no narrative of trauma can be told in a linear way, Morrison tries to depict the overwhelming power of trauma through a non-linear narrative, episodic delivery, and flashbacks. Accordingly, the readers are compelled to concoct the disjointed and fragmented memories in order to solve the riddle of the text, in which...

Stanley J. Korsmeyer

The scientific community has been saddened and diminished by the loss of Stanley J. Korsmeyer, M.D., who died of lung cancer last month at the age of 54. Over the last 25 years, Korsmeyer had been an international leader in the fields of cancer biology and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Through his studies of apoptosis, Korsmeyer helped revolutionize our concepts of carcinogenesis. Korsmeye...
