Preface
In the 2012–13academic year, the Mathematical SciencesResearch Institute,
in Berkeley, hosted programs in Commutative Algebra (Fall 2012 and Spring
2013) and Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory
(Spring2013). Theprogramshad 174participantsvisitingforperiodsranging
between one and nine months, and many others for shorter periods and for
week-longworkshops.
There have been many significant developments in these fields in recent
years;whatismore,theonceratherstrictboundarybetweenthemhasbecome
increasinglyblurred. ThiswasapparentduringtheMSRIprogram, wherethere
were a number of joint seminars on subjects of common interest: birational
geometry, D-modules, invariant theory, matrix factorizations, non-commutative
resolution of singularities, singularity categories, support varieties, and tilting
theory, to name a few. This volume is intended to reflect, and stimulate, the
livelyinteractionbetweenthetwosubjectsthatwewitnessedatMSRI.
