Many rings and algebras arising in quantum mechanics, algebraic analysis, and non-commutative algebraic geometry can be interpreted as skew PBW (Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt) extensions. In the present paper we study two aspects of these…

We present basic properties of Gr\"obner bases of submodules of a free module of finite rank over a polynomial ring $R$ with coefficients in a graded truncated discrete valuations ring $A$. As an application, we give a criterion for a…

We investigate the behavior of finitely generated projective modules over a down-up algebra. Specifically, we show that every noetherian down-up algebra $A(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)$ has a non-free, stably free right ideal. Further, we compute…

In recent years, persistence modules have been viewed as graded modules with gradation over a preordered set serving as the indexing set. We provide sufficient criteria for a projective module over a PID to be free when the indexing set is…

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 real smooth affine domain of dimension $3$ such that $R$ has either no real maximal ideals or the intersection of all real maximal ideals in $R$ has height at least $1$. Then we prove that all stably free $R$-modules of rank…

In this brief note we show that for a field extension $K/F$, $S=K[\![\mathbf{x}]\!]$ is a free $R=F[\![\mathbf{x}]\!]$-module precisely when $K/F$ is finite. We then raise the question \emph{what is the projective dimension of $S$?}

We investigate the question of when free structures of infinite rank (in a variety) possess model-theoretic properties like categoricity in higher power, saturation, or universality. Concentrating on left $R$-modules we show, among other…

Let $A$ be a ring of dimension $d$ containing an infinite field $k$, $T_1,\ldots,T_r$ be variables over $A$ and $P$ be a projective $A[T_1,\ldots,T_r]$-module of rank $n$. Assume one of the following conditions hold. (1) $2n\geq d+3$ and…

For a skew polynomial ring $R=A[X;\theta,\delta]$ where $A$ is a commutative Frobenius ring, $\theta$ an endomorphism of $A$ and $\delta$ a $\theta$-derivation of $A$, we consider cyclic left module codes $\mathcal{C}=Rg/Rf\subset R/Rf$…

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…

In this short note we present an elementary matrix-constructive proof of Quillen-Suslin theorem for Ore extensions: If $K$ is a division ring and $A:=K[x;\sigma,\delta]$ is an Ore extension, with $\sigma$ bijective, then every finitely…

We show that there exists a stably free module over a polynomial ring which is not extended from the ground ring. This provides a counterexample to the Hermite ring conjecture.

An important result in real algebraic geometry is the projection theorem: every projection of a semialgebraic set is again semialgebraic. This theorem and some of its conclusions lie at the basis of many other results, for example the…

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 be an affine algebra of dimension n \geq 3 over an algebraically closed field k. Suppose char k =0 or char k =p \geq n. Let g,f_1,...,f_r be a R-regular sequence and A=R[f_1/g,...,f_r/g]. Let P be a projective A-module of rank n-1…

For sigma-PWB extensions, we extend to modules the theory of Gr\"obner bases of left ideals presented in [5]. As an application, if A is a bijective quasi-commutative sigma-PWB extension, we compute the module of syzygies of a submodule of…

For a commutative ring R and a faithfully flat R-algebra S we prove, under mild extra assumptions, that an R-module M is Gorenstein flat if and only if the left S-module S\otimes M is Gorenstein flat, and that an R-module N is Gorenstein…

Let A be a connected left artinian ring with radical square zero and with n simple modules. If A is not self-injective, then we show that any module M with Ext^i(M,A) = 0 for 1 \le i \le n + 1 is projective. We also determine the structure…

In this work, we extend modular techniques for computing Gr\"obner bases involving rational coefficients to (two-sided) ideals in free algebras. We show that the infinite nature of Gr\"obner bases in this setting renders the classical…
