The rings of noncommutative projective geometry

چکیده
In the past 15 years a study of “noncommutative projective geometry” has flourished. By using and generalizing techniques of commutative projective geometry, one can study certain noncommutative graded rings and obtain results for which no purely algebraic proof is known. For instance, noncommutative graded domains of quadratic growth, or “noncommutative curves,” have now been classified by geometric data and these rings must be noetherian. Rings of cubic growth, or “noncommutative surfaces,” are not yet classified, but a rich theory is currently forming. In this survey, we describe some of these results and examine the question of which rings should be included in noncommutative projective geometry.

Research Statement: Noncommutative Projective Geometry and Vanishing Theorems
1.1. Dissertation. In the past ten years a study of “noncommutative projective geometry” has flourished. By using and generalizing techniques of commutative projective geometry, one can study certain noncommutative rings and obtain results for which no purely algebraic proof is known. The most basic building block of the theory is the twisted homogeneous coordinate ring. Let X be a projective s...
متن کاملMsri Graduate Workshop: Lecture Notes for Course on Noncommutative Projective Geometry
These notes contain the material about noncommutative projective algebraic geometry that the author lectured on at the graduate workshop in June 2012 at MSRI. The notes generally contain everything covered in the lectures but may contain more than we are able to say in the lectures. Still, there are many facts we assume without proof in the lectures and for length reasons we generally do not pu...
متن کاملNoncommutative Ampleness for Multiple Divisors
The twisted homogeneous coordinate ring is one of the basic constructions of the noncommutative projective geometry of Artin, Van den Bergh, and others. Chan generalized this construction to the multi-homogeneous case, using a concept of right ampleness for a finite collection of invertible sheaves and automorphisms of a projective scheme. From this he derives that certain multi-homogeneous rin...
متن کاملLinear Equations over Noncommutative Graded Rings
We call a graded connected algebra R effectively coherent, if for every linear equation over R with homogeneous coefficients of degrees at most d, the degrees of generators of its module of solutions are bounded by some function D(d). For commutative polynomial rings, this property has been established by Hermann in 1926. We establish the same property for several classes of noncommutative alge...
متن کامل$n$-cocoherent rings, $n$-cosemihereditary rings and $n$-V-rings
Let $R$ be a ring, and let $n, d$ be non-negative integers. A right $R$-module $M$ is called $(n, d)$-projective if $Ext^{d+1}_R(M, A)=0$ for every $n$-copresented right $R$-module $A$. $R$ is called right $n$-cocoherent if every $n$-copresented right $R$-module is $(n+1)$-coprese-nted, it is called a right co-$(n,d)$-ring if every right $R$-module is $(n, d)$-projective. $R$...
