We study the relative Frobenius map associated with a map of derived commutative rings over a field of positive characteristic. As part of this, we examine a relative analog of perfectness and construct a relative inverse limit perfection…

We give a sufficient condition for the class of Gorenstein injective modules be precovering: if $R$ is right noetherian and if the class of Gorenstein injective modules, $\mathcal{GI}$, is closed under filtrations, then $\mathcal{GI}$ is…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. If the nilpotent radical $Nil(R)$ of $R$ is a divided prime ideal, then $R$ is called a $\phi$-ring. In this paper, we first distinguish the classes of nonnil-coherent rings and $\phi$-coherent rings…

Let $M$ be a module. A {\em $\delta$-cover} of $M$ is an epimorphism from a module $F$ onto $M$ with a $\delta$-small kernel. A $\delta$-cover is said to be a {\em flat $\delta$-cover} in case $F$ is a flat module. In the present paper, we…

Noetherian rings have played a fundamental role in commutative algebra, algebraic number theory, and algebraic geometry. Along with their dual, Artinian rings, they have many generalizations, including the notions of isonoetherian and…

A ring $R$ is said to be centrally essential if for every its non-zero element $a$, there exist non-zero central elements $x$ and $y$ with $ax = y$. A ring $R$ is said to be completely centrally essential if all its factor rings are…

A finitely generated module C over a commutative noetherian ring R is semidualizing if Hom_R(C,C) \cong R and Ext^i_R(C,C) = 0 for all i \geq 1. For certain local Cohen-Macaulay rings (R,m), we verify the equality of Hilbert-Samuel…

Let R be a ring and let G be a group. We prove a rather curious necessary and sufficient condition for the commutative group ring RG to be weakly nil-neat only in terms of R,G and their sections. This somewhat expands three recent results,…

In this paper, we introduce and study the class $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML of $S$-Mittag-Leffler modules with respect to all flat modules. We show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML is closed under submodules. As…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and S a multiplicative subset of R. The aim of this paper is to study the class of commutative rings in which every S-flat module is flat (resp., projective). An R-module M is said to be S-flat if…

For a commutative noetherian ring A, we compare the support of a complex of A-modules with the support of its cohomology. This leads to a classification of all full subcategories of A-modules which are thick (that is, closed under taking…

In this paper we study endomorphism rings of finite global dimension over not necessarily normal commutative rings. These objects have recently attracted attention as noncommutative (crepant) resolutions, or NC(C)Rs, of singularities. We…

For a commutative semiring S, by an S-algebra we mean a commutative semiring A equipped with a homomorphism from S to A. We show that the subvariety of S-algebras determined by the identities 1+2x=1 and x^2=x is closed under non-empty…

We show that the commutator subgroup G' of a classical knot group G need not have subgroups of every finite index, but it will if G' has a surjective homomorphism to the integers and we give an exact criterion for that to happen. We also…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Assume that $R$ has a pair $\{x,y\}$ of exact zerodivisors such that $\dim R/(x,y)\ge2$ and all totally reflexive $R/(x)$-modules are free. We show that the first and second Brauer--Thrall…

We study the following question: Given two semidualizing complexes B and C over a commutative noetherian ring R, does the vanishing of Ext^n_R(B,C) for n>>0 imply that B is C-reflexive? This question is a natural generalization of one…

In this paper, we are mainly interested in the two questions "which are the commutative rings on which every finitely presented modules is [Formula: see text]-periodic (respectively, [Formula: see text]-periodic)?". It is proved that these…

Given any commutative Noetherian ring $R$ and an element $x$ in $R$, we consider the full subcategory $\C(x)$ of its singularity category consisting of objects for which the morphism that is given by the multiplication by $x$ is zero. Our…

Let S be a commutative ring with topologically noetherian spectrum and let R be the absolutely flat approximation of S. We prove that subsets of the spectrum of R parametrise the localising subcategories of D(R). Moreover, we prove the…

A well-known result of K\"{o}the and Cohen-Kaplansky states that a commutative ring $R$ has the property that every $R$-module is a direct sum of cyclic modules if and only if $R$ is an Artinian principal ideal ring. This motivated us to…
