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…

The ring of dual integers is the bounded polynomial ring $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]=\mathbb Z[T]/(T^2)$ with integer coefficients. We describe the (finitely generated) Gorenstein-projective $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]$-modules as the torsionless…

Let M be a closed surface other than the sphere or projective plane. Goldberg defined a natural homomorphism from the n-stranded pure braid group of M to the n-fold product of the fundamental group of M and showed that the kernel of the…

We show that every finitely generated cohomologically trivial module over $RG$, where $G$ is a finite $p$-group and $R$ is a $p$-adic ring, splits as the direct sum of a finite cohomologically trivial $RG$-module and a free $RG$-module.…

Johnson's characterization of amenable groups states that a discrete group $\Gamma$ is amenable if and only if $H_b^{n \geq 1}(\Gamma; V) = 0$ for all dual normed $\mathbb{R}[\Gamma]$-modules V. In this paper, we extend the previous result…

We establish structure results for Frobenius kernels of automorphism group schemes for surfaces of general type in positive characteristics. It turns out that there are surprisingly few possibilities. This relies on properties of the famous…

It was proved by Beligiannis and Krause that over certain Artin algebras, there are Gorenstein flat modules which are not direct limits of finitely generated Gorenstein projective modules. That is, these algebras have no Gorenstein analogue…

For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ is an Abelian group with respect to addition.…

Let $G$ be a simple, simply connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>0$. Recent work of Kildetoft and Nakano and of Sobaje has shown close connections between two long-standing conjectures of…

In previous work we introduced the notion of binomial cup-one algebras, which are differential graded algebras endowed with Steenrod $\cup_1$-products and compatible binomial operations. In this paper we show that binomial cup-one algebras…

Compact connected abelian groups, or protori, have intrinsic structural characteristics that present for the entire category. In the case of finite-dimensional torus-free protori, The Resolution Theorem for Compact Abelian Groups sets the…

We study the cancellation property of projective modules of rank $2$ with a trivial determinant over Noetherian rings of dimension $\leq 4$. If $R$ is a smooth affine algebra of dimension $4$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ such that…

This paper is devoted to the more elementary aspects of the contramodule story, and can be viewed as an extended introduction to the more technically complicated arXiv:1503.05523. Reduced cotorsion abelian groups form an abelian category,…

We prove some conditions for higher dimensional algebraic fibering of pro-$p$ group extensions and we establish corollaries about incoherence of pro-$p$ groups. In particular, if $G = K \rtimes \Gamma$ is a pro-$p$ group, $\Gamma$ a…

We define homological area-radius pairs with surface diagrams. Using these, we adapt a proof of Gersten and Short \cite{gersten2002} to obtain a homological isoperimetric inequality for subgroups of type $FP_2$ which appear as kernels of…

We apply previous results on the representations of solvable linear algebraic groups to construct a new class of free divisors whose complements are $K(\pi, 1)$'s. These free divisors arise as the exceptional orbit varieties for a special…

We investigate the class of root systems R obtained by extending an irreducible root system by a torsion-free group G. In this context there is a Weyl group W and a group U with the presentation by conjugation. We show under additional…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, and let $S$ be a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we investigate the notion of $S$-cotorsion modules. An $R$-module $C$ is called $S$-cotorsion if $\text{Ext}^{1}_{R}(F,C) = 0$ for every $S$-flat…

Let $(X ,x_0)$ be a pointed smooth proper variety defined over an algebraically closed field. The Albanese morphism for $(X ,x_0)$ produces a homomorphism from the abelianization of the $F$-divided fundamental group scheme of $X$ to the…

This paper investigates the structure of $K_2$-groups for certain quotient rings of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$. Let $G$ be a finite abelian $p$-group with $p$-rank $r$, let $\Gamma$ be the maximal $\mathbb{Z}$-order of…
