Klappentext In the 2012-13 academic year! the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute! Berkeley! hosted programs in Commutative Algebra (Fall 2012 and Spring 2013) and Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory (Spring 2013). There have been many significant developments in these fields in recent years; what is more! the boundary between them has become increasingly blurred. This was apparent during the MSRI program! where there were a number of joint seminars on subjects of common interest: birational geometry! D-modules! invariant theory! matrix factorizations! noncommutative resolutions! singularity categories! support varieties! and tilting theory! to name a few. These volumes reflect the lively interaction between the subjects witnessed at MSRI. The Introductory Workshops and Connections for Women Workshops for the two programs included lecture series by experts in the field. The volumes include a number of survey articles based on these lectures! along with expository articles and research papers by participants of the programs. Zusammenfassung In recent years there have been many significant developments in these two fields; furthermore! the boundary between them has become increasingly blurred. Based on a series of successful lectures! this two-volume series contains survey articles and research papers by experts in the field which emphasise the connections between them. Volume 2 focuses on the most recent research. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface David Eisenbud, Srikanth B. Iyengar, Anurag K. Singh, J. Toby Stafford and Michel Van den Bergh; 1.
