Let S be the polynomial ring on the space of non-square generic matrices or the space of odd-sized skew-symmetric matrices, and let I be the determinantal ideal of maximal minors or Pf the ideal of sub-maximal Pfaffians, respectively. Using desingularizations and representation theory of the general linear group we expand upon work of Raicu–Weyman–Witt [Adv. Math. 250 (2014), pp. 596–610] to determine the S-module structures of Ext^j_S(S/I^t, S) and Ext^j_S(S/Pf^t, S), from which we get the degrees of generators of these Ext modules. As a consequence, via graded local duality we answer a question of Wenliang Zhang [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 225 (2021), Paper No. 106789] on the socle degrees of local cohomology modules of the form H^j_\mathfrak {m}(S/I^t). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Consider the affine space consisting of pairs of matrices (A,B) of fixed size, and its closed subvariety given by the rank conditions rank A ≤ a, rank B ≤ b, and rank (A ⋅ B) ≤ c, for three non-negative integers a,b,c. These varieties are precisely the orbit closures of representations for the equioriented A3 quiver. In this paper we construct the (equivariant) minimal free resolutions of the defining ideals of such varieties. We show how this problem is equivalent to determining the cohomology groups of the tensor product of two Schur functors of tautological bundles on a 2-step flag variety. We provide several techniques for the determination of these groups, which is of independent interest. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
