Characterization of modules of finite projective dimension over complete intersections

Let be a finitely generated module over a local complete intersection of characteristic . The property that has finite projective dimension can be characterized by the vanishing of for some and for some .

     

Brownian intersection local times: Exponential moments and law of large masses

Consider independent Brownian motions in , each running up to its first exit time from an open domain , and their intersection local time as a measure on . We give a sharp criterion for the finiteness of exponential moments,

where are nonnegative, bounded functions with compact support in . We also derive a law of large numbers for intersection local time conditioned to have large total mass.

     

Moderate and Small Deviations for the Ranges of One-Dimensional Random Walks

We establish moderate and small deviations for the ranges of integer valued random walks. Our theorems apply to the limsup and the liminf laws of the iterated logarithm.

Canonical splittings of groups and 3-manifolds

We introduce the notion of a `canonical' splitting over or for a finitely generated group . We show that when happens to be the fundamental group of an orientable Haken manifold with incompressible boundary, then the decomposition of the group naturally obtained from canonical splittings is closely related to the one given by the standard JSJ-decomposition of . This leads to a new proof of Johannson's Deformation Theorem.

     

Intersection Local Times of Independent Brownian Motions as Generalized White Noise Functionals

A 'chaos expansion' of the intersection local time functional of two independent Brownian motions in R ^d is given. The expansion is in terms of normal products of white noise (corresponding to multiple Wiener integrals). As a consequence of the local structure of the normal products, the kernel functions in the expansion are explicitly given and exhibit clearly the dimension dependent singularities of the local time functional. Their L ^p -properties are discussed. An important tool for deriving the chaos expansion is a computation of the 'S-transform' of the corresponding regularized intersection local times and a control about their singular limit.     

Hilbert Functions, Residual Intersections, and Residually S2 Ideals

Let R be a homogeneous ring over an infinite field, IR a homogeneous ideal, and I an ideal generated by s forms of degrees d ₁,...,d _s so that codim( :I)s. We give broad conditions for when the Hilbert function of R/ or of R/( :I) is determined by I and the degrees d ₁,...,d _s . These conditions are expressed in terms of residual intersections of I, culminating in the notion of residually S ₂ ideals. We prove that the residually S ₂ property is implied by the vanishing of certain Ext modules and deduce that generic projections tend to produce ideals with this property.
