Let $s_n^\mathrm{ch}(\Gamma)$ denote the number of characteristic subgroups of index at most $n$ in a finitely generated group $\Gamma$. In response to a question of I. Rivin we show that if $\Gamma = F_r$ is the free group on $r \geq 2$…

Let $R$ be a complete regular local ring with an algebraically closed residue field and let $A$ be a Noetherian $R$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $R[X]$. It has been shown in \cite{DO2} that if $\dim R=1$, then $A$ is necessarily…

The generating series of the Bass numbers $\mu^i_R=\mathrm{rank}_k \mathrm{Ext}^i_R(k,R)$ of local rings $R$ with residue field $k$ are computed in closed rational form, in case the embedding dimension $e$ of $R$ and its depth $d$ satisfy…

Matlis showed that the injective hull of a simple module over a commutative Noetherian ring is Artinian. Many non-commutative Noetherian rings whose injective hulls of simple modules are locally Artinian have been extensively studied…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. Let $\Gamma(R)$ be a graph with vertices as elements of $R$, where two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $Ra+Rb=R$. In this paper we consider a subgraph $\Gamma_2(R)$ of…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$, and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We consider the asymptotic injective dimensions, projective dimensions, Bass numbers, and Betti numbers of localizations of $M/I^n M$ at…

Let $A$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of characteristic zero and $R=A[X_1, \ldots, X_d]$ be a polynomial ring over $A$ with the standard $\mathbb{N}^d$-grading. Let $I\subseteq R$ be an ideal which can be generated by elements of the…

The aim of this paper is to prove that every non-empty set of valuations centered at a two-dimensional regular domain has an infimum. We also generalize some results related to a non-metric tree.

In this article, we give a complete characterization of semigroup graded rings which are graded von Neumann regular. We also demonstrate our results by applying them to several classes of examples, including matrix rings and groupoid graded…

We introduce two new invariants of a Noetherian (standard graded) local ring $(R, \mathfrak m)$ that measure the number of generators of certain kinds of reductions of $\mathfrak m,$ and we study their properties. Explicitly, we consider…

Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring with residue field k and assume that it is not Gorenstein. In the minimal injective resolution of R, the injective envelope E of the residue field appears as a summand in every degree starting…

We study how the properties of being reduced, integral domain, and normal, behave under small perturbations of the defining equations of a noetherian local ring. It is not hard to show that the property of being a local integral domain…

We show how subintegral extensions of certain local Noetherian domains $S$ can be constructed with specified invariants including reduction number, Hilbert function, multiplicity and local cohomology. The construction behaves analytically…

Let G be a semisimple Lie group with associated symmetric space D, and let Gamma subset G be a cocompact arithmetic group. Let L be a lattice inside a Z Gamma-module arising from a rational finite-dimensional complex representation of G.…

In this paper, we study defining ideals of numerical semigroup rings. Let $H$ be a numerical semigroup with multiplicity $a_0$ and embedding dimension $n$. Assuming $a_0/2+1\leq n$, we prove that the defining ideal of $H$ is determinantal…

A ring $R$ is called left strictly $(<\aleph_{\alpha})$-noetherian if $\aleph_{\alpha}$ is the minimum cardinal such that every ideal of $R$ is $(<\aleph_{\alpha})$-generated. In this note, we show that for every singular (resp., regular)…

Consider a Noetherian domain $R$ and a finite group $G \subseteq Gl_n(R)$. We prove that if the ring of invariants $R[x_1, \ldots, x_n]^G$ is a Cohen-Macaulay ring, then it is generated as an $R$-algebra by elements of degree at most…

In 2007, Y. Shimoda, in connection with a long-standing question of J. Sally, asked whether a Noetherian local ring, such that all its prime ideals different from the maximal ideal are complete intersections, has Krull dimension at most…

Let R* be an ideal-adic completion of a Noetherian integral domain R and let L be a subfield of the total quotient ring of R* such that L contains R. Let A denote the intersection of L with R*. The integral domain A sometimes inherits nice…

Gersten's injectivity conjecture for a functor $F$ of ``motivic type'', predicts that given a semilocal, ``non-singular'', integral domain $R$ with a fraction field $K$, the restriction morphism induces an injection of $F(R)$ inside $F(K)$.…
