Following work of Brundan and Kleshchev (2000), which considered tensor products with the natural module (and its dual) for $\text{GL}(n)$, we take the next fundamental module and explore the relationship between multiplicities of…

We prove that, for simple modules $M$ and $N$ over a quantum affine algebra, their tensor product $M \otimes N$ has a simple head and a simple socle if $M \otimes M$ is simple. A similar result is proved for the convolution product of…

In this paper we show how, given a complex of graded modules and knowing some partial Castelnuovo-Mumford regularities for all the modules in the complex and for all the positive homologies, it is possible to get a bound on the regularity…

We show that subsingular vectors exist in Verma modules over W(2,2), and present a subquotient structure of these modules. We prove conditions for irreducibility of a tensor product of intermediate series module with the highest weight…

Let $R$ be a local ring with residue field $k$ and $M$, $N$ be finitely generated modules over $R$. It is well known that $Tor^R_i(M, N) = 0$ for $i \gg 0$ if $pd_R(M) < \infty$ or $pd_R(N) < \infty$. The ring $R$ is said to satisfy the…

We obtain several rigidity results regarding tensor product decompositions of factors. First, we show that any full factor with separable predual has at most countably many tensor product decompositions up to stable unitary conjugacy. We…

In this paper we introduce and study a twisted tensor product construction of nonlocal vertex algebras. Among the main results, we establish a universal property and give a characterization of a twisted tensor product. Furthermore, we give…

We give conditions for when the tensor product of two positive maps between matrix algebras is a positive map. This happens when one map belongs to a symmetric mapping cone and the other to the dual cone. Necessary and sufficient conditions…

Using the tensor identity, we obtain decomposition results for the tensor product of a generalized Verma module with a module $M$ in the category $\mathcal{O}^{\mathfrak{p}}$, based on the decomposition of the restriction of $M$ to the…

We prove a fast computable criterion that expresses non-flatness in terms of torsion: Let R be a regular algebra of finite type over a field K of characteristic zero and let F be a module finitely generated over an R-algebra of finite type.…

Let $G$ be the special linear group of degree $2$ over an algebraically closed field $K$. Let $E$ be the natural module and $S^rE$ the $r$th symmetric power. We consider here, for $r,s\geq 0$, the tensor product of $S^rE$ and the dual of…

Let (A,m_A) -> (B,m_B) be a local morphism of local noetherian rings and M a finitely generated B-module. Then it follows from Tor^A_1(M,A/m_A) = 0 that M is a flat A-module. This is usually called the "local criterion of flatness". We give…

The goal of this paper is to show that if $R$ is an unramified hypersurface, if $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated $R$ modules, and if $\operatorname{Ext}_{R}^{n}(M,N)=0$ for some $n\leq\operatorname{grade}{M}$, then…

Let p be a prime ideal in a commutative noetherian ring R and denote by k(p) the residue field of the local ring R_p. We prove that if an R-module M satisfies Ext_R^n(k(p),M) = 0 for some n >= dim R, then Ext_R^i(k(p),M) = 0 holds for all i…

Inspired by classical work on the depth formula for tensor products of finitely generated $R$-modules, we introduce two conditions which we call $(\mathbf{ldep})$ and $(\mathbf{rdep})$ and their derived variations. We show for…

Let R be any ring (with 1), \Gamma a group and R\Gamma the corresponding group ring. Let H be a subgroup of \Gamma of finite index. Let M be an R\Gamma -module, whose restriction to RH is projective. Moore's conjecture: Assume for every…

If $k$ is a field, $A$ and $B$ $k$-algebras, $M$ a faithful left $A$-module, and $N$ a faithful left $B$-module, we recall the proof that the left $A\otimes_k B$-module $M\otimes_k N$ is again faithful. If $k$ is a general commutative ring,…

There is a conjecture, that the torsionfreeness of the module of differentials in a point of an algebraic or algebroid curve should imply that the curve is non singular at that point. A report on the main results is given.
