The study of free resolutions is a core and beautiful area in
Commutative Algebra. The main goal of this book is to inspire the
readers and develop their intuition about syzygies and Hilbert
functions. Many examples are given in order to illustrate ideas and
key concepts.
A valuable feature of the book is the inclusion of open problems
and conjectures; these provide a glimpse of exciting, and often
challenging, research directions in the field. Three types of
problems are presented: Conjectures, Problems, and Open-Ended
Problems. The latter do not describe specific problems but point to
interesting directions for exploration.
The first part of the monograph contains basic background
material on graded free resolutions. Further coverage of topics
includes syzygies over a polynomial ring, resolutions over quotient
rings, lex ideals and Hilbert functions, compression, resolutions
of monomial ideals, and syzygies of toric ideals. With a clear and
self-contained exposition this text is intended for advanced
graduate students and postdoctorates; it will be also of interest
to senior mathematicians."
