Let $(S,\mathfrak{m},k)$ and $(T,\mathfrak{n},k)$ be local rings, and let $R$ denote their fiber product over their common residue field $k$. Inspired by work of Naseh and Sather-Wagstaff, we explore consequences of vanishing of ${\rm…

A commutative Noetherian ring $R$ is said to be Tor-persistent if, for any finitely generated $R$-module $M$, the vanishing of $\operatorname{Tor}_i^R(M,M)$ for $i\gg 0$ implies $M$ has finite projective dimension. An open question of…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring which contains a regular sequence $ \underline{x} = x_1,\ldots,x_d \in \mathfrak{m} \smallsetminus \mathfrak{m}^2 $ such that $ \mathfrak{m}^3 \subseteq (\underline{x}) $. Let $…

The primary goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of irreducible monomorphisms to and irreducible epimorphisms from finitely generated free modules over a noetherian local ring. Then we show that over such a ring,…

For a finitely generated, non-free module $M$ over a CM local ring $(R,\fm,k)$, it is proved that for $n\gg 0$ the length of $\tor 1RM{R/\fm^{n+1}}$ is given by a polynomial of degree $\dim R-1$. The vanishing of $\tor iRM{N/\fm^{n+1}N}$ is…

Conditions on the Koszul complex of a noetherian local ring $R$ guarantee that $\mathrm{Tor}^{R}_{i}(M,N)$ is non-zero for infinitely many $i$, when $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated $R$-modules of infinite projective dimension. These…

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…

The long-standing Auslander and Reiten Conjecture states that a finitely generated module over a finite-dimensional algebra is projective if certain Ext-groups vanish. Several authors, including Avramov, Buchweitz, Iyengar, Jorgensen,…

Consider a non-trivial fiber product $R=S\times_kT$ of local rings $S$, $T$ with common residue field $k$. Given two finitely generate $R$-modules $M$ and $N$, we show that if $\operatorname{Tor}^R_i(M,N)=0=\operatorname{Tor}^R_{i+1}(M,N)$…

Let I be a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring P over a field. By Macaulay's Theorem, there exists a lexicographic ideal L=Lex(I) with the same Hilbert function as I. Peeva has proved that the Betti numbers of P/I can be obtained from…

We describe new classes of noetherian local rings $R$ whose finitely generated modules $M$ have the property that $Tor_i^R(M,M)=0$ for $i\gg 0$ implies that $M$ has finite projective dimension, or $Ext^i_R(M,M)=0$ for $i\gg 0$ implies that…

Let $ R $ be a $ d $-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay (CM) local ring of minimal multiplicity. Set $ S := R/({\bf f}) $, where $ {\bf f} := f_1,\ldots,f_c $ is an $ R $-regular sequence. Suppose $ M $ and $ N $ are maximal CM $ S $-modules. It is…

We obtain a partial classification of the finite groups $G$ for which the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ has projective cancellation, i.e. for which $P \oplus \mathbb{Z} G \cong Q \oplus \mathbb{Z} G$ implies $P \cong Q$ for projective…

In this paper we show that for a torsion-free abelian group $G$, $\operatorname{rank}_\mathbb{Z}G<\infty$ if and only if there exists a Noetherian $G$-graded ring $R$ such that the set $\{R_g \neq 0\}$ generates the group $G$. For every $G$…

Given finitely generated modules $M$ and $N$ over a local ring $R$, the tensor product $M\otimes_RN$ typically has nonzero torsion. Indeed, the assumption that the tensor product is torsion-free influences the structure and vanishing of the…

Let R be a commutative ring, M an R-module, and N a finitely presented R-module such that the intersection of Max(R) and Supp(N) is finite-dimensional and Noetherian. Suppose also that N is homothetic; in other words, suppose that the…

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 $S^{\cdot}$ be a noetherian graded algebra over a commutative $k$-algebra $A$, where $k$ is a commutative ring, and assume it is a module over a Lie algebroid ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$. If $S^\cdot$ is semi-simple over ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$…

Let $Q$ be a Noetherian ring with finite Krull dimension and let $\mathbf{f}= f_1,... f_c$ be a regular sequence in $Q$. Set $A = Q/(\mathbf{f})$. Let $I$ be an ideal in $A$, and let $M$ be a finitely generated $A$-module with $\projdim_Q…

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…
