Let \(k\) be an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(0\) and consider a graded \(k\)-algebra \(R\) which is connected (positively graded and with \(R_0=k\)), Noetherian and generated as a \(k\)-algebra by its elements of degree \(1\). Denote by \(R_+\) the graded ideal \(\bigoplus_{i>0} R_i\) of \(R\). If \(R\) is commutative, then Serre's theorem essentially says that the category of quasicoherent sheaves over the scheme \(\text{Proj}(R)\) is equivalent to the category \(R\)-qgr, which is the quotient category of \(R\)-gr, the category of graded \(R\)-modules, obtained by cancelling out powers of \(R_+\). In the noncommutative case a similar construction works, if one restricts to so-called ``schematic algebras'' (introduced by the author in his Ph.D. thesis), and by introducing a suitable notion of noncommutative projective scheme to the graded ring \(R\). The paper presents a short introduction to this topic, including some details about the construction of this noncommutative scheme as well as some first results about the cohomological behaviour of Auslander-Gorenstein algebras, which might serve as an indicator for the applicability of this geometric approach.
