Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We prove that the finiteness of the injective dimension of a finitely generated $R$-module $C$ is determined by the existence of a Cohen--Macaulay module $M$ that satisfies an inequality…
It is proved that, for a left hereditary ring, an arbitrary left module has a representation in the form of the direct sum of a stable left module and indecomposable projective left modules (if and only if an arbitrary left module has a…
Let $A$ be a tubular algebra and let $r$ be a positive irrational. Let ${\mathcal D}_r$ be the definable subcategory of $A$-modules of slope $r$. Then the width of the lattice of pp formulas for ${\mathcal D}_r$ is $\infty$. It follows that…
Let $R$ be a discrete valuation domain with field of fractions $Q$ and maximal ideal generated by $\pi$. Let $\Lambda$ be an $R$-order such that $Q\Lambda$ is a separable $Q$-algebra. Maranda showed that there exists $k\in\mathbb{N}$ such…
For an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$, we prove that any wide subcategory of $\mathsf{mod} \Lambda$ satisfying a certain finiteness condition is $\theta$-semistable for some stability condition $\theta$. More generally, we…
The blob algebra is a finite-dimensional quotient of the Hecke algebra of type $B$ which is almost always quasi-hereditary. We construct the indecomposable tilting modules for the blob algebra over a field of characteristic $0$ in the…
Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a local complete intersection $R$ of characteristic $p>0$. The property that $M$ has finite projective dimension can be characterized by the vanishing of $\ext_R^i({}^{f^n} R,M)$ for some $i>0$…
Following the well-established terminology in commutative algebra, any (not necessarily commutative) finite-dimensional local algebra $A$ with radical $J$ will be said to be short provided $J^3 = 0$. As in the commutative case, we show: if…
Let $\mathbb{Z}$ be the integer numbers, $\mathbb{k}$ an algebraically closed field, $\Lambda$ a finite dimensional $\mathbb{k}$-algebra, mod$\Lambda$ the category of finitely generated right modules, proj$\Lambda$ the full subcategory of…
We define the notion of a $\lambda$-definable category, a generalisation of the notion of definable category from the model theory of modules. Let ${\cal C}$ be a $\lambda$-accessible additive category. We characterise the additive functors…
Recently, there is growing interest in the use of relative homology algebra to develop invariants using interval covers and interval resolutions (i.e., right minimal approximations and resolutions relative to interval-decomposable modules)…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring of prime characteristic $p$ and $f:R\to R$ the Frobenius ring homomorphism. For $e\ge 1$ let $R^{(e)}$ denote the ring $R$ viewed as an $R$-module via $f^e$. Results of Peskine, Szpiro, and…
We study a finite-dimensional algebra $\Lambda$ constructed from a Postnikov diagram $D$ in a disk, obtained from the dimer algebra of Baur-King-Marsh by factoring out the ideal generated by the boundary idempotent. Thus $\Lambda$ is…
Injective, pure-injective and fp-injective modules are well known to provide for approximations in the category Mod-R for an arbitrary ring R. We prove that this fails for many other generalizations of injectivity: the $C_1$, $C_2$, $C_3$,…
We prove versions of results of Foxby and Holm about modules of finite (Gorenstein) injective dimension and finite (Gorenstein) projective dimension with respect to a semidualizing module. We also verify special cases of a question of…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We prove a variety of new formulae for modules of finite quasi-projective or finite quasi-injective dimension. These include the Derived Depth Formula, itself an extension of Auslander famous…
The main objective of this project is to determine all irreducible modules of a given modular Lie algebra. In contrast to ordinary Lie algebras, modular Lie algebras require an additional structure known as the p-mapping. The minimal…
Let $\mathscr{A}$ be an abelian category having enough projective and injective objects, and let $\mathscr{T}$ be an additive subcategory of $\mathscr{A}$ closed under direct summands. A known assertion is that in a short exact sequence in…
This paper endeavors to explore certain distinguished modules and subcategories within mod$\Lambda$. Let $\mathrm{proj}\mbox{-}\Lambda$ denote the category of all finitely generated projective $\Lambda$-modules and define…
As a special case of Bass' theory of perfect rings, one obtains the assertion that, over a finite-dimensional associative algebra over a field, all flat modules are projective. In this paper we prove the following relative version of this…
