Let $X$ be a finitely generated left module over a left artinian ring $R$, and let $p(X)=\{l_i\}$ be the infinite sequence of nonnegative integers where $l_i$ is the length of the $i$-th term of the minimal projective resolution of $X$. We…

For a commutative ring R we investigate the property that the sets of minimal primes of finitely generated ideals of R is always finite. We prove this property passes to polynomial ring extensions (in an arbitrary number of variables) over…

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…

Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian (not necessarily local) ring, $M$ an arbitrary $R$-module and $I$ an ideal of $R$ of dimension one. It is shown that the $R$-module $\Ext^i_R(R/I,M)$ is finitely generated (resp. weakly Laskerian) for…

Let $Q$ be a local ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak{n}$ and let $f,g\in \mathfrak{n}\smallsetminus\mathfrak{n}^2$ with $fg=0$. When $M$ is a finite $Q$-module with $fM=0$, we show that a minimal free resolution of $M$ over $Q$ has a…

Let $E$ be a module of projective dimension one over $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$. If $E$ is presented by a matrix $\varphi$ with linear entries and the number of generators of $E$ is bounded locally up to codimension $d-1$, the Rees ring…

For finitely generated modules $M$ and $N $ over a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$, we give various sufficient criteria for detecting freeness of $M$ or $N$ via vanishing of some finitely many Ext modules $\textrm{Ext}^i_R(M,N)$ and…

We prove the following result, which is motivated by the recent work of Kurano and Roberts on Serre's positivity conjecture. Assume that (R,m) is a local ring with finitely-generated module M such that R/ann(M) is quasi-unmixed and contains…

This article investigates the splitting problem for finitely generated projective modules $P$ over affine algebras over algebraically closed fields and their polynomial extensions. We then address an open question due to M. Roitman on monic…

It is shown that each almost maximal valuation ring R such that every indecomposable injective module is countably generated, satisfies the following condition (C): each fp-injective module is locally injective. The converse holds if R is a…

Thirty years ago, Huneke (for local rings) and Lyubeznik (in general) conjectured that for all regular rings $R$, the local cohomology modules $H^i_I(R)$ have finitely many associated prime ideals. We prove substantial new cases of their…

We apply the theory of cotorsion pairs to study closure properties of classes of modules with finite projective dimension with respect to direct limit operations and to filtrations. We also prove that if the ring is an order in an…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be super finitely presented if there is an exact sequence of $R$-modules $\cdots\rightarrow P_n\rightarrow\cdots \rightarrow P_1\rightarrow P_0\rightarrow M\rightarrow 0$ where…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We show that R is Gorenstein if and only if every finitely generated R-module can be embedded in a finitely generated R-module of finite projective dimension. This extends a result of Auslander…

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…

The core of a projective dimension one module is computed explicitly in terms of Fitting ideals. In particular, our formula recovers previous work by R. Mohan on integrally closed torsionfree modules over a two-dimensional regular local…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring, and denote by mod R the category of finitely generated R-modules. In this paper, we consider when mod R has a nontrivial extension-closed subcategory. We prove that this is the case if there are…

We consider a finite dimensional $\kk G$-module $V$ of a $p$-group $G$ over a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. We describe a generating set for the corresponding Hilbert Ideal. In case $G$ is cyclic this yields that the algebra $\kk[V]_G$…

We provide a certain direct-sum decomposition of reflexive modules over (one-dimensional) Arf local rings. We also see the equivalence of three notions, say, integrally closed ideals, trace ideals, and reflexive modules of rank one (i.e.,…

A projective scheme $X$ is called `quadratic' if $X$ is scheme-theoretically cut out by homogeneous equations of degree 2. Furthermore, we say $X$ satisfies `property $\textbf{N}_{2,p}$' if it is quadratic and the quadratic ideal has only…
