Pragmatic 2017 (First announcement) Catania, Italy June 19th - July 7th, 2017 (arrival date June 18th; departure date July 8th) Organizers:
Topic: Powers of ideals and ideals of
powers These
topics will be approached from three points of view---algebra,
combinatorics, and geometry---and the interactions between these
perspectives will be developed. Participants will be invited to explore
the evolution of the set of associated primes of higher and higher
powers of an ideal. For ideals associated to a combinatorial object
like a graph or hypergraph, one wishes to explain this evolution in
terms of the original combinatorial objects. Similar questions concern
understanding the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of powers of
combinatorially defined ideals in terms of the associated combinatorial
data. From a more geometric point of view, one can consider how the relations between symbolic and regular powers can be interpreted in geometrical terms. Other topics to be studied include aspects of Waring type problems and symbolic powers of an ideal, for example, Waldschmidt constants, resurgences, and the persistence of associated primes. A significant feature of this school of research is that participants will be divided into small groups (say groups of 2 to 3) to work on open problems on topics related to the main lectures. The lecturers will mentor each group, with the larger goal of providing each group with the basis for a project leading to a publication of the results in a professional journal.
