A well-known result of K\"{o}the and Cohen-Kaplansky states that a commutative ring $R$ has the property that every $R$-module is a direct sum of cyclic modules if and only if $R$ is an Artinian principal ideal ring. This motivated us to…

Classical definitions of locally complete intersection (l.c.i.) homomorphisms of commutative rings are limited to maps that are essentially of finite type, or flat. The concept introduced in this paper is meaningful for homomorphisms phi :…

We compute some numerical invariants of local cohomology of the ring of invariants by a finite group, mainly in the modular case. Also, we present some applications. In particular, we study Cohen-Macaulay property of modular invariants from…

Differential modules are natural generalizations of complexes. In this paper, we study differential modules with complete intersection homology, comparing and contrasting the theory of these differential modules with that of the Koszul…

We introduce a new invariant for subcategories X of finitely generated modules over a local ring R which we call the radius of X. We show that if R is a complete intersection and X is resolving, then finiteness of the radius forces X to…

The structure of minimal free resolutions of finite modules M over commutative local rings (R,m,k) with m^3=0 and rank_k(m^2) < rank_k(m/m^2)is studied. It is proved that over generic R every M has a Koszul syzygy module. Explicit families…

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…

We introduce the notion of E-depth of graded modules over polynomial rings to measure the depth of certain Ext modules. First, we characterize graded modules over polynomial rings with (sufficiently) large E-depth as those modules whose…

Let $\mathfrak{q}$ denote an ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(A,\mathfrak{m})$. Let $\underline{a}=a_1,\ldots,a_d \subset \mathfrak{q}$ denote a system of parameters in a finitely generated $A$-module $M$. This note investigate an…

We study Gorenstein dimension and grade of a module $M$ over a filtered ring whose assosiated graded ring is a commutative Noetherian ring. An equality or an inequality between these invariants of a filtered module and its associated graded…

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…

Local rings are ubiquitous in algebraic geometry. Not only are they naturally meaningful in a geometric sense, but also they are extremely useful as many problems can be attacked by first reducing to the local case and taking advantage of…

Let $R$ be a noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ such that $\dim R/\fa=1$ and $M$ a finite $R$--module. We will study cofiniteness and some other properties of the local cohomology modules $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M)$. For an arbitrary ideal $\fa$…

Over Cohen--Macaulay rings admitting a pointwise dualizing module, we show that the class of modules of restricted projective dimension bounded by any integer is finitely deconstructible and that the class of modules of restricted flat…

Let $\Lambda$ be a left and right noetherian ring. First, for $m,n\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$, we give equivalent conditions for a given $\Lambda$-module to be $n$-torsionfree and have $m$-torsionfree transpose. Using them, we investigate…

Let C be a semidualizing complex over a noetherian local ring A. If there exists a local homomorphism with source A satisfying some homological properties, then C is dualizing.

We provide a uniform vanishing result for the graded components of the finite length Koszul module associated to a subspace K inside the second exterior product of a vector space, as well as a sharp upper bound for its Hilbert function.…

Let R be a local complete ring. For an R-module M the canonical ring map R\to End_R(M) is in general neither injective nor surjective; we show that it is bijective for every local cohomology module M := H^h_I(R) if H^l_I(R) = 0 for every…

While every grade 2 perfect ideal in a regular local ring is linked to a complete intersection ideal, it is known not to be the case for ideals of grade 3. We soften the blow by proving that every grade 3 perfect ideal in a regular local…

Let \fa be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R and M and N two finitely generated R-modules. Let \cd_{\fa}(M,N) denote the supremum of the i's such that H^i_{\fa}(M,N)\neq 0. First, by using the theory of Gorenstein homological…
