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…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring with total quotient ring $K$. An $R$-module $M$ is called simple divisible, if $M$ is divisible $\neq 0$, but every proper submodule $0 \neq U \subsetneqq M$ is not divisible.…

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…

Baer's Criterion of injectivity implies that injectivity of a module is a factorization property w.r.t. a single monomorphism. Using the notion of a cotorsion pair, we study generalizations and dualizations of factorization properties in…

In a previous paper, the third author proved that finite-degree polynomial functors over infinite fields are topologically Noetherian. In this paper, we prove that the same holds for polynomial functors from free $R$-modules to finitely…

Let A be a Noetherian commutative ring. Assume that projective modules of rank r over polynomial extensions of A are extended from A. Then projective modules of rank r over discrete Hodge A-algebras are also extended from A. This result…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring of dimension $d$ and $A$ be a graded $R$-subalgebra of $R[X,1/X]$. Let $P$ be a projective module over $A$ of rank $r \geq \max\{d+1,2\}$ and $\v=(a,p)$ be a unimodular element of $A \oplus P$. We find an…

We provide a class of commutative Noetherian domains $R$ of dimension $d$ such that every finitely generated projective $R$-module $P$ of rank $d$ splits off a free summand of rank one. On this class, we also show that $P$ is cancellative.…

Let $(R,\mm,K)$ be a regular local ring containing a field $k$ such that either char $k=0$ or char $k=p$ and tr-deg $K/\BF_p\geq 1$. Let $g_1,\ldots,g_t$ be regular parameters of $R$ which are linearly independent modulo $\mm^2$. Let…

Let $\Lambda$ be a left and right noetherian ring. First, for $m,n\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$, we give equivalent conditions for a given $\Lambda$-module to be $n$-torsionfree and have $m$-torsionfree transpose. Using them, we investigate…

Let R be a ring of dimension d and A be one of R[Y] or R[Y,Y^{-1}]. If P is a projective A-module of rank \geq d+1 satisfying some condition, then we show that E(A\oplus P) acts transitively on Um(A\oplus P). When P is free, this result is…

Similar to the idea of relative projectivity, we introduce the notion of relative subprojectivity, which is an alternative way to measure the projectivity of a module. Given modules $M$ and $N$, $M$ is said to be {\em $N$-subprojective} if…

In this article, the projectivity of finitely generated flat modules of a commutative ring are studied from a topological point of view. Then various interesting results are obtained. For instance, it is shown that if a ring has either a…

We show that a formal power series ring $A[[X]]$ over a noetherian ring $A$ is not a projective module unless $A$ is artinian. However, if $(A,{\mathfrak m})$ is local, then $A[[X]]$ behaves like a projective module in the sense that…

In this paper, we characterize several properties of commutative notherian local rings in terms of the left perpendicular category of the category of finitely generated modules of finite projective dimension. As an application we prove that…

A module over a ring $R$ is pure projective provided it is isomorphic to a direct summand of a direct sum of finitely presented modules. We develop tools for the classification of pure projective modules over commutative noetherian rings.…

We study the cancellation property of projective modules of rank $2$ with a trivial determinant over Noetherian rings of dimension $\leq 4$. If $R$ is a smooth affine algebra of dimension $4$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ such that…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian domain, and let M and N be finitely generated R-modules. We give new criteria for determining when M tensor N has torsion. We also give constructive formulas for producing a module in the isomorphism class…

Let $R$ be a ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be an absolutely $w$-pure module if and only if $\Ext^1_R(F,M)$ is a GV-torsion module for any finitely presented module $F$. In this paper, we introduce and study the concept of…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the class of rings for which every indecomposable right module is pure-projective or pure-injective. When $R$ is a Noetherian local commutative ring of maximal ideal $P$, it is proven that $R\in\mathcal{P}$ if and only…
