Algebraic K-Theory, Commutative Algebra, and Algebraic Geometry: Proceedings of the U.S.--Italy Joint Seminar Held June 18-24, 1989 at Santa Margherit

By R. Keith Dennis and Claudio Pedrini

In the mid-1960's, several Italian mathematicians began to study the connections between classical arguments in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, and the contemporaneous development of algebraic K -theory in the US. These connections were exemplified by the work of Andreotti-Bombieri, Salmon, and Traverso on seminormality, and by Bass-Murthy on the Picard groups of polynomial rings. Interactions proceeded far beyond this initial point to encompass Chow groups of singular varieties, complete intersections, and applications of K -theory to arithmetic and real geometry.
