Title: Some open problems in projective modules and complete intersections
Abstract: Consider a surjective $k$-algebra ($k$ field) morphism from a
polynomial ring of $n$ variables to a polynomial ring of $m$ variables
over $k.$ Is the kernel generated by $n - m$ elements? Our discussion will
primarily be around this question and its variants.
