Let $R$ be a Noetherian commutative ring of dimension $n$, $A=R[X_1,\cdots,X_m]$ be a polynomial ring over $R$ and $P$ be a projective $A[T]$-module of rank $n$. Assume that $P/TP$ and $P_f$ both contain a unimodular element for some monic…

Let (R,m) be a noetherian local ring and let $\mathcal{C}$ be the class of all R-modules M which possess a reflexive submodule U such that M/U is finitely generated. For every R-module $M\in \mathcal{C}$ the canonical embedding $\varphi:…

We prove a descent result for finite projective modules, motivated by a question in perfectoid geometry. Given a commutative ring $A$, we formulate a descent problem for descending a finite projective module over the Novikov ring with…

For a commutative Noetherian ring R of dimension d and a commutative cancellative monoid M, the elementary action on unimodular n-rows over the monoid ring R[M] is transitive for n>=max(d+2,3). The starting point is the case of polynomial…

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…

In this paper, sufficient conditions for finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring to be projective are given in terms of vanishing of Ext modules. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Auslander--Reiten…

The long-standing Auslander and Reiten Conjecture states that a finitely generated module over a finite-dimensional algebra is projective if certain Ext-groups vanish. Several authors, including Avramov, Buchweitz, Iyengar, Jorgensen,…

Let R be a unital commutative ring and let $M$ be an $R$-module that is generated by $k$ elements but not less. Let $E_n(R)$ be the subgroup of $GL_n(R)$ generated by the elementary matrices. In this paper we study the action of $E_n(R)$ by…

We study the truncation functors and show the existence of projective cover of each irreducible module in parabolic BGG category $\mathcal O$ over infinite rank Lie algebra of types $\mathfrak{a,b,c,d}$. Moreover, $\mathcal O$ is a Koszul…

We prove that for a Frobenius extension, if a module over the extension ring is Gorenstein projective, then its underlying module over the the base ring is Gorenstein projective; the converse holds if the Frobenius extension is either…

The main aim of this paper is to investigate rings over which all (finitely generated strongly) Gorenstein projective modules are projective. We consider this propriety under change of rings, and give various examples of rings with and…

The Module Cancellation Problem solicits hypotheses that, when imposed on modules $K$, $L$, and $M$ over a ring $S$, afford the implication $K\oplus L\cong K\oplus M\Longrightarrow L\cong M$. In a well-known paper on basic element theory…

We investigate projective covers of cyclically presented modules, characterizing the rings over which every cyclically presented module has a projective cover as the rings $R$ that are Von Neumann regular modulo their Jacobson radical…

Let $R$ be an affine algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ with dim$(R)=n$. Let $P$ be a projective $A=R[T_1,\cdots,T_k]$-module of rank $n$ with determinant $L$. Suppose $I$ is an ideal of $A$ of height $n$ such…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring of prime characteristic $p$ and $f:R\to R$ the Frobenius ring homomorphism. For $e\ge 1$ let $R^{(e)}$ denote the ring $R$ viewed as an $R$-module via $f^e$. Results of Peskine, Szpiro, and…

A group G acts infinitely transitively on a set Y if for every positive integer m, its action is m-transitive on Y. Given a real affine algebraic variety Y of dimension greater than or equal to two, we show that, under a mild restriction,…

We study finitely generated projective modules over noncommutative tori. We prove that for every module $E$ with constant curvature connection the corresponding element $[E]$ of the K-group is a generalized quadratic exponent and,…

An example is constructed of a local ring and a module of finite type and finite projective dimension over that ring such that the module is not rigid. This shows that the rigidity conjecture is false.

In this paper we give explicit formulas for higher order differential operators on a finitely generated projective module $E$ on an arbitrary commutative unital ring $A$. We use the differential operators constructed to give a simple…

In this article, we prove that if $R$ is a finitely generated ring over $\mathbb{Z}$ of dimension $d, d\geq2, \frac{1}{d!}\in R$, then any unimodular row over $R[X]$ of length $d+1$ can be mapped to a factorial row by elementary…
