Syzygies, moduli and topological invariants of groups

This is a proposal aimed at harvesting interconnections between algebraic geometry and geometric group theory using syzygies. The impetus of the proposal is the recent breakthrough in which, inspired by rational homotopy theory, we introduced Koszul modules as novel homological objects establishing striking connections between algebraic geometry and geometric group theory. Deep statements in geometric group theory have startling counterparts in algebraic geometry and these connection led to a recent proof of Green's Conjecture for generic algebraic curves in arbitrary characteristic, as well as to a dramatically simpler proof in characteristic zero. Based on a dynamic view of mathematics in…
