In the last two decades Cohen-Macaulay rings and modules have been central topics in commutative algebra. This book meets the need for a thorough, self-contained introduction to the homological and combinatorial aspects of the theory of Cohen-Macaulay rings, Gorenstein rings, local cohomology, and canonical modules. A separate chapter is devoted to Hilbert functions (including Macaulay's theorem) and numerical invariants derived from them. The authors emphasize the study of explicit, specific rings, making the presentation as concrete as possible. So the general theory is applied to Stanley-Reisner rings, semigroup rings, determinantal rings, and rings of invariants. Their connections with combinatorics are ... Read more

Reviews for Cohen-Macaulay Rings
' … a thorough, self-contained introduction to the homological and combinatorial aspects of the theory of Cohen–Macaulay rings … very useful for graduate courses in algebra. As the only modern, broad account of the subject, it will be essential reading for specialists as well.' L'Enseignement Mathématique 'This book presents basic results in commutative algebra together with their applications in different ... Read more
