I discuss how the ring structure of such an algebra is encoded in its resolution. Among other things I show how this method can be applied to analyze the moduli space of canonical surfaces with p_g=5, q=0, K^2=11, thus recovering a result previously obtained by D. Rossberg with different techniques.40 pagesAlgebraic GeometryCommutative Algebra14J29text
