This paper studies infinite acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules over a commutative noetherian local ring $(R,m)$ with $m^3=0$. Conclusive results are obtained on the growth of the ranks of the modules in acyclic complexes,…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian local ring. In this paper, we study the self-duality and eventual periodicity of minimal free resolutions of finitely generated $R$-modules in terms of their syzygy modules and Ext modules. As an…
This work concerns finite free complexes over commutative noetherian rings, in particular over group algebras of elementary abelian groups. The main contribution is the construction of complexes such that the total rank of their underlying…
We introduce a strategy to study irreducible representations of automorphism groups of finite modules over local rings. We prove that these automorphism groups fit in a hierarchy that facilitates a stratification of their irreducible…
A left and right noetherian semiperfect ring R is known to be indecomposable if and only if its factor by the second power of Jacobson radical is. This characterisation is used to study simple R-modules in terms of their Ext groups. It is…
It is proved that a module $M$ over a Noetherian ring $R$ of positive characteristic $p$ has finite flat dimension if there exists an integer $t\ge 0$ such that $\operatorname{Tor}_i^R(M, {}^{f^{e}}\!R)=0$ for $t\le i\le t+\dim R$ and…
In this paper we study rigid modules over commutative Noetherian local rings, establish new freeness criteria for certain periodic rigid modules, and extend several results from the literature. Along the way, we prove general Ext vanishing…
Let $(R,\m)$ and $(S,\n)$ be commutative Noetherian local rings, and let $\phi:R\to S$ be a flat local homomorphism such that $\m S = \n$ and the induced map on residue fields $R/\m \to S/\n$ is an isomorphism. Given a finitely generated…
In this paper we study homological dimensions of finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian local rings, called reducing homological dimensions. We obtain new characterizations of Gorenstein and complete intersection local rings…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and $M,N$ be finitely generated $R$-modules. We prove a number of results of the form: if $\mbox{Hom}_R(M,N)$ has some nice properties and $\mbox{Ext}^{1 \leq i \leq n}_R(M,N)=0$ for some $n$,…
We study rings which have Noetherian cohomology under the action of a ring of cohomology operators. The main result is a criterion for a complex of modules over such a ring to have finite injective dimension. This criterion generalizes, by…
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…
For a commutative Noetherian local ring we define and study the class of modules having reducible complexity, a class containing all modules of finite complete intersection dimension. Various properties of this class of modules are given,…
Let $M$ denote a finitely generated module over a Noetherian ring $R$. For an ideal $I \subset R$ there is a study of the endomorphisms of the local cohomology module $H^g_I(M), g = \operatorname{grade} (I,M),$ and related results. Another…
For four elements of a Noetherian ring we construct complexes of free modules of length three (resp. five) by an explicit description of the homomorphisms of the free modules. We provide exactness criteria for them. As an application we use…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We study tensor products involving a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ through the natural action of its endomorphism ring. In particular, we study torsion properties of self tensor products…
Let $A$ be a Noetherian domain and $R$ be a finitely generated $A$-algebra. We study several features regarding the generic freeness over $A$ of an $R$-module. For an ideal $I \subset R$, we show that the local cohomology modules ${\rm…
Let A be a noetherian commutative ring, and let I be an ideal in A. We study questions of flatness and I-adic completeness for infinitely generated A-modules. This is done using the notions of decaying function and I-adically free A-module.
In this article, we construct integrally closed modules of rank two over a two-dimensional regular local ring. The modules are explicitly constructed from a given complete monomial ideal with respect to a regular system of parameters. Then…
This paper is concerned with the relationships between two concepts, vanishing of cohomology groups and the structure of free resolutions. In particular, we study the connection between vanishing theorems for the local cohomology of…
