Given a significative class $F$ of commutative rings, we study the precise conditions under which a commutative ring $R$ has an $F$-envelope. A full answer is obtained when $F$ is the class of fields, semisimple commutative rings or…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. In this note, we study the property: If $ I \subsetneqq J$ are ideals in $R$, then $ I^n \subsetneqq J^n$ for all $ n\geq 1$. We define the notion of a big ideal (Definition 1.2). It is noted…
The supremum of reduction numbers of ideals having principal reductions is expressed in terms of the integral degree, a new invariant of the ring, which is finite provided the ring has finite integral closure. As a consequence, one obtains…
Let $R$ be a domain of Krull dimension one, we study when the class $\mathcal{F}$ of modules over $R$ that are arbitrary direct sums of finitely generated torsion-free modules is closed under direct summands. If $R$ is local, we show that…
The existence of a maximal ideal in a general nontrivial commutative ring is tied together with the axiom of choice. Following Berardi, Valentini and thus Krivine but using the relative interpretation of negation (that is, as "implies 0 =…
Let R be a commutative ring. A not necessarily commutative R-algebra A is called futile if it has only finitely many R-subalgebras. In this article we relate the notion of futility to familiar properties of rings and modules. We do this by…
An additive category in which each object has a Krull-Remak-Schmidt decomposition -- that is, a finite direct sum decomposition consisting of objects with local endomorphism rings -- is known as a Krull-Schmidt category. A Hom-finite…
By analysing the structure of the associated graded ring with respect to certain filtrations, we deduce a number of good properties of iterated local skew power series rings over appropriate base rings. In particular, we calculate the Krull…
The injective spectrum is a topological space associated to a ring $R$, which agrees with the Zariski spectrum when $R$ is commutative noetherian. We consider injective spectra of right noetherian rings (and locally noetherian Grothendieck…
The prime ideal sum graph of a commutative unital ring $R$, denoted by $PIS(R)$, is an undirect and simple graph whose vertices are non-trivial ideals of $R$ and there exists and edge between to distinct vertices if and only if their sum is…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring of dimension $d$, $S = R[X]$ or $R[X, 1/X]$ and $P$ a finitely generated projective $S$ module of rank $r$. Then $P$ is cancellative if $P$ has a unimodular element and $r \geq d + 1$. Moreover if $r \geq \dim…
We consider properties of extensions of Krull domains such as flatness that involve behavior of extensions and contractions of prime ideals. Let (R,m) be an excellent normal local domain with field of fractions K, let y be a nonzero element…
We define and give some properties and characterizations of S-rings of Krull type. We also determine, in the case of an independent S-ring of Krull type A, the injective dimension of the quotient category Mod(A)/\mathcal{M}_{0}, where…
In this paper, new and significant advances on the understanding the structure of p.p. rings and their generalizations have been made. Especially among them, it is proved that a commutative ring $R$ is a generalized p.p. ring if and only if…
Two classes $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ of modules over a ring $R$ are said to form a cotorsion pair $(\mathcal A, \mathcal B)$ if $\mathcal A={\rm Ker Ext}^1_R(-,\mathcal B)$ and $\mathcal B={\rm Ker Ext}^1_R(\mathcal A,-)$. We…
We prove a tight connection between reflexive modules over a one-dimensional ring $R$ and its birational extensions that are self-dual as $R$-modules. Consequently, we show that a complete local reduced Arf ring has finitely many…
For a finite dimensional monomial algebra $\Lambda$ over a field $K$ we show that the Hochschild cohomology ring of $\Lambda$ modulo the ideal generated by homogeneous nilpotent elements is a commutative finitely generated $K$-algebra of…
In this paper, we study the small finitistic dimension of a commutative ring from the viewpoint of finitistic flat homological algebra. Using the class $FPR(R)$ of modules admitting finite projective resolutions, we investigate the…
It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…
Let $H$ be a Krull monoid with finite class group $G$. Then every non-unit $a \in H$ can be written as a finite product of atoms, say $a=u_1 \cdot \ldots \cdot u_k$. The set $\mathsf L (a)$ of all possible factorization lengths $k$ is…
