| Evolution of a Conjecture of Nagata |
| Abstract: In connection to his 1959 counterexample to finite generation of rings of invariants, Nagata conjectured that a polynomial in two variables of degree d having multiplicity at least m at r > 9 general points must satisfy d^2 > m^2r. I will discuss some recent results, and some refinements of this conjecture related to resolutions of fat point ideals. |
