Let $R$ be a noetherian normal domain. We investigate when $R$ admits a faithful module whose endomorphism ring has finite global dimension. This can be viewed as a non-commutative desingularization of $\Spec(R)$. We show that the existence…
Auslander and Ringel-Tachikawa have shown that for an artinian ring R of finite representation type, every R-module is the direct sum of finitely generated indecomposable R-modules. In this paper, we will adapt this result to finite…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring with a semi-dualizing module $C$. The Auslander categories with respect to $C$ are related through Foxby equivalence: $\xymatrix@C=50pt{\mathcal {A}_C(R) \ar@<0.4ex>[r]^{C\otimes^{\mathbf{L}}_{R} -}…
One of the first remarkable results in the representation theory of artin algebras, due to Auslander and Ringel-Tachikawa, is the characterization of when an artin algebra is representation-finite. In this paper, we investigate aspects of…
Let $A$ be an artin algebra. We show that the bounded homotopy category of finitely generated right $A$-modules has Auslander-Reiten triangles. Two applications are given: (1) we provide an alternative proof of a theorem of Happel in [H2];…
There are two abelian groups which can naturally be associated to an additive category A: the split Grothendieck group of A and the triangulated Grothendieck group of the homotopy category of (bounded) complexes in A. We prove that these…
For a certain class of abelian categories, we show how to make sense of the "Euler characteristic" of an infinite projective resolution (or, more generally, certain chain complexes that are only bounded above), by passing to a suitable…
We study Artin algebras $A$ and commutative Noetherian complete local rings $R$ in connection with the following decomposition property of Gorenstein-projective modules: $(*)$ any Gorenstein-projective module is a direct sum of finitely…
We study Auslander-Reiten components of an artin algebra with bounded short cycles, namely, there exists a bound for the depths of maps appearing on short cycles of non-zero non-invertible maps between modules in the given component. First,…
We define a category of planar diagrams whose Grothendieck group contains an integral version of the infinite rank Heisenberg algebra, thus yielding a categorification of this algebra. Our category, which is a q-deformation of one defined…
We determine Grothendieck groups of periodic derived categories. In particular, we prove that the Grothendieck group of the $m$-periodic derived category of finitely generated modules over an Artin algebra is a free $\mathbb{Z}$-module if…
Auslander conjectured that every Artin algebra satisfies a certain condition on vanishing of cohomology of finitely generated modules. The failure of this conjecture - by a 2003 counterexample due to Jorgensen and Sega - motivates the…
We extend the theory of bilinear forms on the Green ring of a finite group developed by Benson and Parker to the context of the Grothendieck group of a triangulated category with Auslander-Reiten triangles, taking only relations given by…
In this paper we show that for a torsion-free abelian group $G$, $\operatorname{rank}_\mathbb{Z}G<\infty$ if and only if there exists a Noetherian $G$-graded ring $R$ such that the set $\{R_g \neq 0\}$ generates the group $G$. For every $G$…
Let $R$ be an algebra over a ring $\Bbbk$, $T$ an $R$-algebra, $M$ a finitely generated projective $R$-module, and $N$ a $T$-module. Let $G$ be a linearly reductive group scheme over $\Bbbk$ equipped with a representation…
Let $H$ be a hereditary artin algebra of finite representation type. We first determine all hammocks in the Auslander-Reiten quiver $\GaH$ of $\mmod H$, the category of finitely generated left $H$-modules. This enables us to obtain an…
We study finiteness conditions on large tilting modules over arbitrary rings. We then turn to a hereditary artin algebra R and apply our results to the (infinite dimensional) tilting module L that generates all modules without preprojective…
We study the problem of classifying triangulated categories with finite-dimensional morphism spaces and finitely many indecomposables over an algebraically closed field. We obtain a new proof of the following result due to Xiao and Zhu: the…
We consider the abelian group $PT$ generated by quasi-equivalence classes of pretriangulated DG categories with relations coming from semi-orthogonal decompositions of corresponding triangulated categories. We introduce an operation of…
In this paper we explore consequences of the vanishing of ${\rm Ext}$ for finitely generated modules over a quasi-fiber product ring $R$; that is, $R$ is a local ring such that $R/(\underline x)$ is a non-trivial fiber product ring, for…
