About

About the course

Course content

The content of the course may vary, but the core will include categories of modules, the functors Hom and tensor product, free, projective, injective and flat resolutions, direct and inverse limits, projective, injective and flat dimension, homology and the functors Ext and Tor. The course will be lectured every second year, next time Fall 2011.

Learning outcome

The course gives the theoretical base for the use of
homological methods in module categories over rings with
special emphasis on the homological functors Ext and Tor.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures. The lectures will be given in English if they are attended by students from the Master's Programme in Mathematics for International students.

Course materials

Will be announced at the start of the course.
