Let $R$ be a Gorenstein local ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ satisfying $\mathfrak{m}^3=0\ne\mathfrak{m}^2$. Set $k=R/\mathfrak{m}$ and $e=\text{rank}_{k}(\mathfrak{m}/\mathfrak{m}^2)$. If $e>2$ and $M$, $N$ are finitely generated…

The goal of this paper is to show that if $R$ is an unramified hypersurface, if $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated $R$ modules, and if $\operatorname{Ext}_{R}^{n}(M,N)=0$ for some $n\leq\operatorname{grade}{M}$, then…

We give a short proof of a result due to Katz and West: Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring and $I_1,\ldots,I_t$ ideals of $R$. Let $M$ and $N$ be finitely generated $R$-modules and $N' \subseteq N$ a submodule. For every fixed $i \ge 0$, the sets…

We construct a class of Gorenstein local rings $R$ which admit minimal complete $R$-free resolutions $\bd C$ such that the sequence $\{\rank_R C_i\}$ is constant for $i< 0$, and grows exponentially for all $i>0$. Over these rings we show…

Let p be a prime ideal in a commutative noetherian ring R. It is proved that if an R-module M satisfies Tor^R_n(k(p),M) = 0 for some n \geq dim R_p, where k(p) is the residue field at p, then Tor^R_i(k(p),M) = 0 holds for all i \geq n.…

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 $(R,\fr m)$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The first result of this paper is to prove a vanishing theorem for generalized local cohomology modules which says that…

Motivated by work of C. U. Jensen, R.-O. Buchweitz, and H. Flenner, we prove the following result. Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $a$ an ideal in the Jacobson radical of $R$. Let $\hat{R}^a$ be the $a$-adic completion of $R$.…

Avramov and Buchweitz proved that for finitely generated modules $M$ and $N$ over a complete intersection local ring $R$, $\Ext^i_R(M,N)=0$ for all $i\gg 0$ implies $\Ext^i_R(N,M)=0$ for all $i\gg 0$. In this note we give some…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$, $N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The aim of this paper is to investigate the $I$-cofiniteness of generalized local cohomology modules $\displaystyle…

Let $\xx= x_1,\ldots,x_r$ denote a system of elements of a commutative ring $R$. For an $R$-module $M$ we investigate when $\xx$ is $M$-pro-regular resp. $M$-weakly pro-regular as generalizations of $M$-regular sequences. This is done in…

We give an elementary proof prove of the preservation of the Noetherian condition for commutative rings with unity $R$ having at least one finitely generated ideal $I$ such that the quotient ring is again finitely generated, and $R$ is…

A finitely generated module C over a commutative noetherian ring R is semidualizing if Hom_R(C,C) \cong R and Ext^i_R(C,C) = 0 for all i \geq 1. For certain local Cohen-Macaulay rings (R,m), we verify the equality of Hilbert-Samuel…

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. For every $R$-module $M$, $\gamma_I(M) = \sum\{ \operatorname{Bi} f \,|\, f \in \operatorname{Hom}_R(I,M)\}$ is called the trace of $I$ in $M$. It is…

It is proved that a noetherian commutative local ring A containing a field is regular if there is a complex M of free A-modules with the following properties: M_i=0 for i not in [0,dim A]; the homology of M has finite length; H_0(M)…

Our purpose in this work is multifold. First, we provide general criteria for the finiteness of the projective and injective dimensions of a finite module $M$ over a (commutative) Noetherian ring $R$. Second, in the other direction, we…

Let $(R,\my)$ be a noetherian local ring and let $M$ be an $R$-module such that $\bigcap\limits_{n\geq 1} \my^n M=0.$ Let $\hat{M}$ be the completion of $M$. We show that Ass$(\hat{M})=$ Koatt$(M)$ holds in the following three cases: if…

Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a Noetherian local ring $R$ and let $C$ be a semidualizing $R$-module. For an $R$-module $X$, we denote any of the quantities $\fd_R X$, $\Gfd_R X$ and $\GCfd_RX$ by $\T(X)$. Let $M$ be an $R$-module such that…

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…
