We introduce a notion of homological flips and homological flops. The former includes the class of all flips between Gorenstein normal varieties; while the latter includes the class of all flops between Cohen-Macaulay normal varieties whose…
A remarkable feature of Schur functions -- the common eigenfunctions of cut-and-join operators from $W_\infty$ -- is that they factorize at the peculiar two-parametric topological locus in the space of time-variables, what is known as the…
This paper investigates the quasi-Gorenstein property of extended Rees algebras associated with the Hilbert filtrations on a Noetherian local ring. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the deformation of the quasi-Gorenstein…
We give a simplified algorithm of the functorial weak factorization of birational morphisms of nonsingular varieties over a field of characteristic zero into a composite of blow-ups and blow-downs with smooth centers.
We show that the weakly \'etale morphisms, used to define the pro-\'etale site of a scheme, are characterized by a lifting property similar to the one which characterizes formally \'etale morphisms. In order to prove this, we prove a…
In this paper, we prove the weak positivity theorem in positive characteristic when the canonical ring of the geometric generic fiber $F$ is finitely generated and the Frobenius stable canonical ring of $F$ is large enough. As its…
We develop a theory of equivariant factorization algebras on varieties with an action of a connected algebraic group $G$, extending the definitions of Francis-Gaitsgory [FG] and Beilinson-Drinfeld [BD1] to the equivariant setting. We define…
A result of Foxby states that if there exists a complex with finite depth, finite flat dimension, and finite injective dimension over a local ring $R$, then $R$ is Gorenstein. In this paper we investigate some homological dimensions…
We extend the Auslander-Buchweitz axioms and prove Cohen-Macaulay approximation results for fibred categories. Then we show that these axioms apply for the fibred category of pairs consisting of a finite type flat family of Cohen-Macaulay…
Motivated by a recent result of Yoshino, and the work of Bergh on reducible complexity, we introduce reducing versions of invariants of finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian local rings. Our main result considers modules…
Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a local ring $(R,\fm)$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We investigate the structure of the formal local cohomology modules ${\vpl}_nH^i_{\fm}(M/\fa^n M)$, $i\geq 0$. We prove several results concerning…
We define the triangulated category of relative singularities of a closed subscheme in a scheme. When the closed subscheme is a Cartier divisor, we consider matrix factorizations of the related section of a line bundle, and their analogues…
We extend the classical (connected, etale) factorization of locally connected geometric morphisms into a (terminally connected, pro-etale) factorization for all geometric morphisms between Grothendieck topoi. We discuss properties of both…
The injective right comodules appearing in the minimal injective resolution of a finite-dimensional comodule need not to be of finite dimension or even quasi-finite. The obstruction here is that factor comodules of quasi-finite comodules…
The aim of this paper is to extend Cohen structure theorem beyond local rings. Both Cohen structure theorem and Nagata's generalization of it are special cases of our results. We investigate for which rings $R$ there exists a maximal ideal…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring with canonical module that is generically Gorenstein. In this paper, I prove isomorphisms relating the minimal MCM approximations and minimal FID hulls of modules constructed from a…
The Gorenstein property in local algebra admits several characterizations via its module category. The goal of this paper is to collect and generalize such characterizations to the relative setting, i.e., to Gorenstein morphisms as defined…
In this paper, we study the two different topics related to sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules. The questions are when the sequentially Cohen-Macaulay property preserve the localization and the module-finite extension of rings.
On a suitable category of formal schemes equipped with codimension functions we construct a canonical pseudofunctor (-)^# taking values in the corresponding categories of Cousin complexes. Cousin complexes on such a formal scheme X…
We notice the connection between almost Cohen-Macaulay rings and the Cohen-Macaulay defect. We introduce a Serre-type condition for modules, that is connected to the Cohen-Macaulay defect in the same way that the condition $(S_n)$ is…
