Abstract

This work focuses on problems regarding derived categories arising in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra. There are six chapters regarding generation in the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves over a Noetherian scheme. The targeted topics involve explicitly identifying generators, proving existence results thereof, and producing estimates on Rouquier dimension.
