    OVERVIEW

    Lectures are in Italian unless students requires otherwise

    AIMS AND CONTENT

    LEARNING OUTCOMES

    Introduction to commutative algebra: noetherian rings, primary decomposition and Krull dimension.

    TEACHING METHODS

    Lessons will be in presence. Most of the available hours will be devoted to the development of the theoretical part of the course; exercise sheets will be made available during the semester, and will be discussed collectively in the remaining hours. 

    SYLLABUS/CONTENT

    Rings, Ideal, modules and algebras. Rings and modules of fractions. Tensor products of modules, tensor algebra, symmetric algebra and exteriro algebra. Chain conditions, Noetherian and Artinian rings. Primary decomposition, associated primes. Dimension theory. Krullhauptidealssatz and its variations. System of parameters and dimension of local rings. Integral dependence, Noether normalization and dimension of finitely generated K-algebras. Graded algebras, Hilbert function and rationality of the Hilbert series.
