In this paper we introduce techniques to gauge the torsion of the tensor product $A\otimes_RB$ of two finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring $R$. The outlook is very different from the study of the rigidity of Tor carried out in…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We study tensor products involving a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ through the natural action of its endomorphism ring. In particular, we study torsion properties of self tensor products…

Tensor products usually have nonzero torsion. This is a central theme of Auslander's paper "Modules over unramified regular local rings"; the theme continues in the work of Huneke and Wiegand. The main focus in this note is on tensor powers…

Let $(R,\fm)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Suppose that $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated modules over $R$ such that $M$ has finite projective dimension and such that $\Tor^R_i(M,N)=0$ for all $i>0$. The main result of this note…

We give an application of the New Intersection Theorem and prove the following: let $R$ be a local complete intersection ring of codimension $c$ and let $M$ and $N$ be nonzero finitely generated $R$-modules. Assume $n$ is a nonnegative…

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Denote by mod R the category of finitely generated R-modules. In the present paper, we first provide various sufficient (and necessary) conditions for a full subcategory of mod R to be a Serre…

Over a one-dimensional Gorenstein local domain $R$, let $E$ be the endomorphism ring of the maximal of $R$, viewed as a subring of the integral closure $\overline R$. If there exist finitely generated $R$-modules $M$ and $N$, neither of…

In this paper, we study Serre's condition $(S_n)$ for tensor products of modules over a commutative noetherian local ring. The paper aims to show the following. Let $M$ and $N$ be finitely generated module over a commutative noetherian…

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Denote by mod R the category of finitely generated R-modules. In this paper, we study n-torsionfree modules in the sense of Auslander and Bridger, by comparing them with n-syzygy modules, and modules…

The aim of this paper is to unify classification theories of torsion classes of finite dimensional algebras and commutative Noetherian rings. For a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ and a module-finite $R$-algebra $\Lambda$, we study the set…

For any finitely generated module $M$ with non-zero rank over a commutative one dimensional Noetherian local domain, the numerical invariant $h(M)$ was introduced and studied in the author's previous work "Partial Trace Ideals and Berger's…

Huneke and Wiegand conjectured that, if $M$ is a finitely generated, non-free, torsion-free module with rank over a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring $R$, then the tensor product of $M$ with its algebraic dual has torsion. This…

The depth of tensor product of modules over a Gorenstein local ring is studied. For finitely generated modules M and N over a Gorenstein local ring R, under some assumptions on the vanishing of finite number of Tate and relative homology…

A conjecture of Huneke and Wiegand claims that, over one-dimensional commutative Noetherian local domains, the tensor product of a finitely generated, non-free, torsion-free module with its algebraic dual always has torsion. Building on a…

We investigate homological and depth-theoretic properties of finitely generated modules of finite projective dimension over Noetherian local rings. A central theme is the study of criteria for freeness and reflexivity derived from the…

In this paper, motivated by a work of Luk and Yau, and Huneke and Wiegand, we study various aspects of the cohomological rigidity property of tensor product of modules over commutative Noetherian rings. We determine conditions under which…

For finitely generated modules M and N over a complete intersection R, the vanishing of Tor_i^R(M,N) for all i> 0 gives a tight relationship among depth properties of M, N and their tensor product. Here we concentrate on the converse and…

Among the finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring R, the semidualizing modules have been singled out due to their particularly nice duality properties. When R is a normal domain, we exhibit a natural inclusion of the set of…

This paper studies the tensor product of flat cotorsion modules. Let~$R$~and $S$ be~$k$-algebras. We prove that both~$R$-module\ $M$ and~$S$-module\ $N$ are flat cotorsion modules if and only if~$M\otimes_{k} N$ is a flat…

In this paper, we consider finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian rings whose tensor products have finite projective dimension. We construct examples of modules of infinite projective dimension (and also of infinite…
