The study of rings and modules with homological criteria is a cornerstone of commutative algebra. Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity (not necessarily local) and $\frak a$ a proper ideal of $R$. In this paper, a relative…
Motivated by the Bass conjecture, we study finitely generated modules of finite injective dimension and the additional constraints they impose on the ambient ring. Beyond the Cohen--Macaulay property, the existence of such modules forces…
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…
Let (R,m,k) be a local ring. We establish a totally reflexive analogue of the New Intersection Theorem, provided for every totally reflexive R-module M, there is a big Cohen-Macaulay R-module B_M such that the socle of B_M\otimes_RM is…
A topological commutative ring is said to be rigid when for every set $X$, the topological dual of the $X$-fold topological product of the ring is isomorphic to the free module over $X$. Examples are fields with a ring topology, discrete…
There is a well known link from the first topic in the title to the third one. In this paper we thread that link through the second topic. The central result is a criterion for the tensor nilpotence of morphisms of perfect complexes over…
We introduce the notion of totally reflexive extension of rings. It unifies Gorenstein orders and Frobenius extensions. We prove that for a totally reflexive extension, a module over the extension ring is totally reflexive if and only if…
We investigate various homotopy invariant formulations of commutative algebra in the context of rational homotopy theory. The main subject is the complete intersection condition, where we show that a growth condition implies a structure…
We study the so-called closed and splitting subsemimodules and submodules of a given semimodule or module, respectively. We describe lattices of subsemimodules and of closed subsemimodules and posets of splitting subsemimodules and…
In this paper several characterizations of semi-compact modules are given. Among other results, we study rings whose semi-compact modules are injective. We introduce the property $\Sigma$-semi-compact for modules and we characterize the…
Basic facts and definitions of conformal moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are recalled. Some computational methods are reviewed. For the case of quadrilaterals with polygonal sides, some recent results are given. Some numerical…
The core of an module is the intersection of all its reductions. The main result asserts that the core of a finitely generated, torsion-free, integrally closed module over a two dimensional regular local ring is the product of the module…
Let $R$ be any ring. We prove that all direct products of flat right $R$-modules have finite flat dimension if and only if each finitely generated left ideal of $R$ has finite projective dimension relative to the class of all $\mathcal…
To every local complete intersection ring one may associate a so-called generic hypersurface. In this paper we introduce rank varieties for modules and complexes over the generic hypersurface. The definition uses extension of scalars,…
We explore the implications of the finiteness of homological dimensions for Ext modules, focusing on projective dimension, injective dimension, and their Gorenstein counterpart. In this direction, we establish several finiteness criteria…
We present an alternate proof of a result of F\'eray and Reiner characterizing posets whose $P$-partition rings are complete intersections. This shortened proof relates the complete intersection property to a simple structural property of a…
We study homological properties of a locally complete intersection ring by importing facts from homological algebra over exterior algebras. One application is showing that the thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a locally…
A general principle suggests that "anything flat is a directed colimit of countably presentable flats". In this paper, we consider resolutions and coresolutions of modules over a countably coherent ring $R$ (e.g., any coherent ring or any…
This is essentially an erratum, with some example to indicate inconsistencies. Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$. The Complete Intersection conjecture states that, for any ideal $I$ in $A$,…
We prove that each complete flat cone metric on a surface, perhaps with boundary and punctures, can be triangulated with finitely many types of triangles. We derive Gauss-Bonnet formula for this kind of cone metrics. In addition, we prove…
