It is well known that a ring $R$ is right Kasch if each simple right $R$-module embeds in a projective right $R$-module. In this paper we study the dual notion and call a ring $R$ right dual Kasch if each simple right $R$-module is a…

Local cohomology modules, even over a Noetherian ring $R$, are typically unwieldly. As such, it is of interest whether or not they have finitely many associated primes. We prove the affirmative in the case where $R$ is a Stanley-Reisner…

In this article, we study the following question raised by Mel Hochster: let $(R,m,K)$ be a local ring and $S$ be a flat extension with regular closed fiber. Is $\cV(mS)\cap\Ass_S H^i_I(S)$ finite for every ideal $I\subset S$ and $i\in…

Let $R$ be a ring, $\sigma:R\to R$ a ring endomorphism, and $\delta:R\to R$ a $\sigma$-derivation. We establish that the Ore extension $R[x;\sigma,\delta]$ satisfies the rank condition if and only if $R$ does. In addition, we prove…

Let $n\ge2$ be an integer, $\mathcal{K}_n$ the Weyl algebra over the Laurent polynomial algebra $A_n=\mathbb{C} [x_1^{\pm1}, x_2^{\pm1}, ..., x_n^{\pm1}]$, and $\mathbb{S}_n$ the Lie algebra of divergence zero vector fields on an…

For a flat commutative $k$-algebra $A$ such that the enveloping algebra $A\otimes_k A$ is noetherian, given a finitely generated bimodule $M$, we show that the adic completion of the Hochschild cohomology module $HH^n(A/k,M)$ is naturally…

Fisher [Fis75] and Baur [Bau75] showed independently in the seventies that if $T$ is a complete first-order theory extending the theory of modules, then the class of models of $T$ with pure embeddings is stable. In [Maz4, 2.12], it is asked…

Let $G$ be a group with involution * and $\sigma\colon G\to\{\pm1\}$ a group homomorphism. The map $\sharp$ that sends $\alpha=\sum\alpha_gg$ in a group ring $RG$ to $\alpha^{\sharp}=\sum\sigma(g)\alpha_gg^*$ is an involution of $RG$ called…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. It is shown that $R$ is Artinian if and only if every $R$-module is good, if and only if every $R$-module is representable. As a result, it follows that every nonzero submodule of any representable…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of skew power series rings of the form $S = R[[x;\sigma,\delta]]$, where $R$ is a complete filtered ring and $(\sigma,\delta)$ is a skew derivation respecting the filtration. Our main focus is on…

Given a commutative ring $R$ and finitely generated ideal $I$, one can consider the classes of $I$-adically complete, $L_0^I$-complete and derived $I$-complete complexes. Under a mild assumption on the ideal $I$ called weak pro-regularity,…

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 $f:S\rightarrow R$ be a ring extension. We introduce and study the properties of $(R, S)_\star$-injective modules and the existences of $(R, S)_\star$-injective envelopes. Besides, we show that every $R$-module has an $(R, S)$-injective…

Let $K$ be a field, and let $R = K[X]$ be the polynomial ring in an infinite collection $X$ of indeterminates over $K$. Let ${\mathfrak S}_{X}$ be the symmetric group of $X$. The group ${\mathfrak S}_{X}$ acts naturally on $R$, and this in…

L. Avramov, following D. Quillen, posed a conjecture to the effect that if $R \to A$ is a homomorphism of Noetherian rings then the Andr\'e-Quillen homology on the category of A-modules satisfies: $D_{s}(A|R;-) = 0$ for $s\gg 0$ implies…
