In his foundational study of $p$-adic Hodge theory, Faltings introduced the method of almost \'etale extensions to establish fundamental comparison results of various $p$-adic cohomology theories. Scholze introduced the tilting operations…
By finding a p-adic obstruction, we construct many examples of positive characteristic complete noetherian local rings which do not admit any module-finite Cohen-Macaulay extension. These examples should be contrasted with a result of…
We study the interplay between the notions of $n$-coherent rings and finitely $n$-presented modules, and also study the relative homological algebra associated to them. We show that the $n$-coherency of a ring is equivalent to the thickness…
This article is concerned with nonzero modules of finite length and finite projective dimension over a local ring. We show the Loewy length of such a module is larger than the regularity of the ring whenever the ring is strict…
We introduce quasi-Gorenstein morphisms of commutative local dg-algebras and use a Gorenstein version of the virtually small property to characterize them, a result which is new even for homomorphisms of local rings. In a different…
The notion of a quasi-free Hilbert module over a function algebra $\mathcal{A}$ consisting of holomorphic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in complex $m$ space is introduced. It is shown that quasi-free Hilbert modules correspond to…
The homological property of the associated graded ring of an ideal is an important problem in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. In this paper we explore the almost Cohen-Macaulayness of the associated graded ring of stretched…
L. Avramov, following D. Quillen, posed a conjecture to the effect that if $R \to A$ is a homomorphism of Noetherian rings then the Andr\'e-Quillen homology on the category of A-modules satisfies: $D_{s}(A|R;-) = 0$ for $s\gg 0$ implies…
Let $(R, \mathfrak{m} )$ be a Noetherian local ring, $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$. Set $\mathfrak{a}(M):=\mathfrak{a}_0(M)\cdots \mathfrak{a}_{d-1}(M)$, where $\mathfrak{a}_i(M):={\rm Ann}_RH^i_{\mathfrak{m}}(M)$ for…
Let $M$ denote a finitely generated module over a Noetherian ring $R$. For an ideal $I \subset R$ there is a study of the endomorphisms of the local cohomology module $H^g_I(M), g = \operatorname{grade} (I,M),$ and related results. Another…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian local ring, and let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. Inspired by works of Vasconcelos and Briggs on characterization of complete intersection local rings through the homological properties of the…
Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. It is shown that if $M$ is relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to an ideal $\frak a$ of $R$, then $\text{Ann}_R(H_{\mathfrak{a}}^{\text{cd}(\mathfrak{a},…
We prove that, modulo any power of a prime $p$, the absolute integral closure of an excellent noetherian domain is Cohen-Macaulay. A graded analog is also established, yielding variants of Kodaira vanishing "up to finite covers" in mixed…
Let $A$ be a commutative Noetherian ring containing a field of characteristic zero. Let $R= A[X_1, \ldots, X_m]$ be a polynomial ring and $A_m(A) = A \langle X_1, \ldots, X_m, \partial_1, \ldots, \partial_m \rangle$ be the $m^{th}$ Weyl…
This paper contains two theorems concerning the theory of maximal Cohen--Macaulay modules. The first theorem proves that certain Ext groups between maximal Cohen--Macaulay modules $M$ and $N$ must have finite length, provided only finitely…
For a module-finite algebra over a commutative noetherian ring, we give a complete description of flat cotorsion modules in terms of prime ideals of the algebra, as a generalization of Enochs' result for a commutative noetherian ring. As a…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We characterize when its completion has an isolated singularity, thereby strengthening the Dao-Takahashi refinement of the Auslander-Huneke-Leuschke-Wiegand theorem. We investigate the ascent…
We study some closely interrelated notions of Homological Algebra: (1) We define a topology on modules over a not-necessarily commutative ring $R$ that coincides with the $R$-topology defined by Matlis when $R$ is commutative. (2) We…
In this paper we investigate a property for commutative rings with identity which is possessed by every coherent regular ring and is equivalent to Cohen-Macaulay for Noetherian rings. We study the behavior of this property in the context of…
In the present paper we investigate reflexive modules over the endomorphism algebras of reflexive trace ideals in a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring. The main theorem generalizes both of the results of S. Goto, N. Matsuoka, and T.…
