Title: Minimal resolutions of differential modules (part 1)

Abstract: A differential module is a pair (M, d), where M is a module, and d is an endomorphism of M that squares to 0. This is a generalization of a familiar notion: when M is graded and d has degree -1, (M, d) is a chain complex. In this series of talks, I'll discuss a theory of minimal free resolutions of differential modules over local rings.

This is joint work with David Eisenbud, Daniel Erman, and Frank-Olaf Schreyer.
