Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. In this paper, we study specialization-closed subsets of Spec R. More precisely, we first characterize the specialization-closed subsets in terms of various closure properties of subcategories of…

We study the converse of a theorem of Butler and Auslander-Reiten. We show that a Cohen-Macaulay local ring with an isolated singularity has only finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable summands of syzygies of Cohen-Macaulay…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity (not necessarily local) and $\frak a$ a proper ideal of $R$. We study the invariance of some classes of $\frak a$-relative Cohen-Macaulay modules under pure ring homomorphisms and ring…

Let R be a commutative ring, M an R-module, and N a finitely presented R-module such that the intersection of Max(R) and Supp(N) is finite-dimensional and Noetherian. Suppose also that N is homothetic; in other words, suppose that the…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring, let $\mathfrak a$ be an ideal of $A$. In this paper, we extend Hartshorne's characterization of cofinite complexes to more general classes of rings. We also determine conditions under which…

Let A be a commutative noetherian ring. Let H(A) be the quotient of the Grothendieck group of finitely generated A-modules by the subgroup generated by pseudo-zero modules. Suppose that the real vector space H(A)_R = H(A) \otimes_Z R has…

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a noetherian (not necessarily local) ring $R$ and $M$ an $R$-module with $\mathrm{Supp}_RM\subseteq\mathrm{V}(\mathfrak{a})$. We show that if $\mathrm{dim}_RM\leq2$, then $M$ is $\mathfrak{a}$-cofinite if…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring. The $n$-semidualizing modules of $R$ are generalizations of its semidualizing modules. We will prove some basic properties of $n$-semidualizing modules. Our main result and example shows that the…

Let $R$ be a domain of Krull dimension one, we study when the class $\mathcal{F}$ of modules over $R$ that are arbitrary direct sums of finitely generated torsion-free modules is closed under direct summands. If $R$ is local, we show that…

In this paper we study rigid modules over commutative Noetherian local rings, establish new freeness criteria for certain periodic rigid modules, and extend several results from the literature. Along the way, we prove general Ext vanishing…

With the goal of computing the Grothendieck group of certain multigraded infinite polynomial rings and the $K$-series of infinite matrix Schubert spaces, we introduce a new type of $\Gamma$-graded $k$-algebra (which we call a PDCF algebra)…

In this paper we review and study $R$-modules $M$ for which $S = End_R(M)$ is commutative. For this, we define the concept of center of modules which is a natural generalization of the center of rings. The properties of center of modules,…

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a commutative noetherian ring $R$, $\mathcal{S}$ a Serre subcategory of $R$-modules satisfying the condition $C_\mathfrak{a}$ and $\mathcal{N}$ the subcategory of finitely generated $R$-modules. In this…

Consider the obvious functor from the unbounded derived category of all finitely generated modules over a left noetherian ring $R$ to the unbounded derived category of all modules. We answer the natural question whether this functor defines…

Let k be a perfect field and A a finite dimensional k-algebra of finite global dimension (e.g. the path algebra of a finite quiver without oriented cycles). Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that the value…

Let (R,m) be a commutative Noetherian local ring. It is known that R is Cohen-Macaulay if there exists either a nonzero finitely generated R-module of finite injective dimension or a nonzero Cohen-Macaulay R-module of finite projective…

We initiate a unified, axiomatic study of noncommutative algebras R whose prime spectra are, in a natural way, finite unions of commutative noetherian spectra. Our results illustrate how these commutative spectra can be functorially ``sewn…

A left and right noetherian semiperfect ring R is known to be indecomposable if and only if its factor by the second power of Jacobson radical is. This characterisation is used to study simple R-modules in terms of their Ext groups. It is…

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…
