Title

:

"Koszul property of diagonal subalgebras of bigraded algebras."
Abstract

:

Koszul algebras are the algebras over which the resolution of the residue class field is given entirely by linear matrices. In this talk, we shall first review the classical invariant Castelnouvo-Mumford regularity of a finitely generated graded module $M$ over a commutative ring $R$ and define Koszul algebras in terms of regularity. I will give some examples to understand Castelnouvo-Mumford regularity and Koszul algebras. We shall also discuss several other characterizations of Koszul algebras. Then I will present some results on Koszul property of diagonal subalgebras of bigraded algebras; in particular, Koszul property of diagonal subalgebras of Rees algebras for a complete intersection ideal generated by homogeneous forms of equal degrees.
