Cortona, Italy

There will be a conference on “Commutative Rings and Their Modules” at Incontro INdAM, Cortona, Italy, May 30 – June 5, 2004.
The aim is to bring together researchers in the areas of commutative ring theory and module theory. The main emphasis of the workshop is on almost perfect rings and their modules; tilting torsion theories, tilting and cotilting modules on commutative rings; integer valued polynomials; multiplicative ideal and module systems, star and semistar operations, Gabriel-Popescu localizing systems; Krull and Mori domains; chain conditions and prime spectrum; Pruefer domains and their generalizations; factorization and divisibility properties, decomposition of ideals, class groups. Young researchers approaching these areas are welcome.
