We introduce a new class of commutative {non-noetherian} rings, called $n$-subperfect rings, generalizing the almost perfect rings that have been studied recently by Fuchs-Salce. For an integer $n \ge 0$, the ring $R$ is $n$-subperfect if…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and ${\Bbb{A}}(R)$ be the set of ideals with non-zero annihilators. The annihilating-ideal graph of $R$ is defined as the graph ${\Bbb{AG}}(R)$ with vertex set ${\Bbb{A}}(R)^*={\Bbb{A}}\setminus\{(0)\}$ such…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a complete Cohen-Macaulay local ring. Assume $A$ is not Gorenstein. We say $A$ is a Teter ring if there exists a complete Gorenstein ring $(B,\mathfrak{n})$ with $\dim B = \dim A$ and a surjective map $B…

Given a significative class $F$ of commutative rings, we study the precise conditions under which a commutative ring $R$ has an $F$-envelope. A full answer is obtained when $F$ is the class of fields, semisimple commutative rings or…

We prove that NIP valued fields of positive characteristic are henselian. Furthermore, we partially generalize the known results on dp-minimal fields to dp-finite fields. We prove a dichotomy: if K is a sufficiently saturated dp-finite…

We study just infinite algebras which remain so upon extension of scalars by arbitrary field extensions. Such rings are called stably just infinite. We show that just infinite rings over algebraically closed fields are stably just infinite…

Let A be a Noetherian ring and B be a finitely generated A-algebra. Denote by A' the integral closure of A in B. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for prime ideals to be in Ass_{A}(B/A') and Ass_{A'}(B/A') generalizing and…

A not necessarily noetherian local ring O is called regular if every finitely generated ideal I of O possesses finite projective dimension. In the article localizations O of a finitely presented, flat algebra A over a Pruefer domain R at a…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. It is shown that $R$ is Artinian if and only if every $R$-module is good, if and only if every $R$-module is representable. As a result, it follows that every nonzero submodule of any representable…

We consider the Noetherian properties of the ring of differential operators of an affine semigroup algebra. First we show that it is always right Noetherian. Next we give a condition, based on the data of the difference between the…

In this paper, we consider finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian rings whose tensor products have finite projective dimension. We construct examples of modules of infinite projective dimension (and also of infinite…

In this paper, we characterize several properties of commutative notherian local rings in terms of the left perpendicular category of the category of finitely generated modules of finite projective dimension. As an application we prove that…

For a Noetherian local domain $R$ let $R^+$ be the absolute integral closure of $R$ and let $R_{\infty}$ be the perfect closure of $R$, when $R$ has prime characteristic. In this paper we investigate the projective dimension of residue…

We show that if $R$ is a local domain which is dominated by a valuation $\nu$, then there does not always exist a regular local ring $R'$ which birationally dominates R and is dominated by $\nu$ and an extension of $\nu$ to the…

We show that the valuation ring F_q[[t]] in the local field F_q((t)) is existentially definable in the language of rings with no parameters. The method is to use the definition of the henselian topology following the work of Prestel-Ziegler…

In this note, we study the Cohen-Macaulayness of non-Noetherian rings. We show that Hochster's celebrated theorem that a finitely generated normal semigroup ring is Cohen-Macaulay does not extend to non-Noetherian rings. We also show that…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring, $M$ a finite $A$-module and $x_1,...,x_n\in \m$ such that $\lambda (M/\x M)$ is finite. Serre proved that all partial Euler characteristics of $M$ with respect to $\x$ is non-negative. This…

The aim of this paper is to extend the main result of C. Huneke and G. Lyubeznik in [Adv. Math. 210 (2007), 498--504] to the class of rings that are images of Cohen-Macaulay local rings. Namely, let $R$ be a local Noetherian domain of…

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Lindo and Pande have recently posed the question asking when every ideal of R is isomorphic to some trace ideal of R. This paper studies this question and gives several answers. In particular, a…

We prove a negative solution to the analogue of Hilbert's tenth problem for rings of one variable non-Archimedean entire functions in any characteristic. In the positive characteristic case we prove more: the ring of rational integers is…
