Determinantal Representations of Determinantal Varieties
A closed hypersurface in projective space has a determinantal representation if its defining polynomial is the determinant of a matrix with linear entries. The talk will be about different ways of generalizing this concept to projective varieties of higher codimension: Taking maximal minors of a non-square matrix, representing the homogeneous coordinate ring as an algebra generated by commuting matrices with linear entries in some unknowns and the notion of Livšic-type determinantal representations introduced by Shamovich and Vinnikov very recently. I will present a work in progress about how these concepts relate to each other.

Cohen-Macaulay modules and syzygies in equivariant cohomology
Let G be a compact, connected Lie group and X a compact G-manifold. Then the (real) cohomology of the classifying space BG is a polynomial algebra, and the G-equivariant cohomology of X is a finitely generated module over it. The filtration of X by the rank of the isotropy subgroups leads to relative equivariant cohomology modules which are Cohen-Macaulay. This fact turns out to be crucial in the study of syzygies (higher versions of torsion-freeness) in equivariant cohomology, which was initiated by Allday, Franz and Puppe in recent years.
In this talk I will survey these results, with an emphasis on the more algebraic aspects. Familiarity with equivariant cohomology is not a prerequisite.

Ulrich modules over cyclic quotient surface singularities
Abstract: Let R be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. An Ulrich module is defined as a maximal Cohen-Macaulay R-module which has the maximum number of generators. In this talk, I will consider such a module for the case where cyclic quotient surface singularities. Especially, I will determine which maximal Cohen-Macaulay R-module is an Ulrich module. If there is time, I will also consider related topics. This is a joint work with Ken-ichi Yoshida.
