We introduce the notions of sequential sequence and sequential f-sequence in order to characterize sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules and sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay modules. Let R be a Noetherian local ring and M a finitely…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module on a local ring $R$ and $\F: M_0\subset M_1\subset...\subset M_t=M$ a filtration of submodules of $M$ such that $ d_o<d_1< ... <d_t=d$, where $d_i=\dim M_i$. This paper is concerned with a non-negative…

We study finitely generated modules of minimal multiplicity, a notion introduced by Puthenpurakal that extends the classical concept of minimal multiplicity from rings to modules. Our main result characterizes when trace ideals or reflexive…

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…

Criteria are given in terms of certain Hilbert coefficients for the fiber cone F(I) of an m-primary ideal I in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R,m) so that it is Cohen-Macaulay or has depth at least dim(R)-1. A version of Huneke's fundamental…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein local ring and let $CMS(A)$ be its stable category of maximal CM $A$-modules. Suppose $CMS(A) \cong CMS(B)$ as triangulated categories. Then we show (1) If $A$ is a complete intersection of codimension…

This paper is a sequel to [8] where we introduced an invariant, called canonical degree, of Cohen-Macaulay local rings that admit a canonical ideal. Here to each such ring with a canonical ideal, we attach a different invariant, called…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. It is shown that if $M$ is relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to an ideal $\frak a$ of $R$, then $\text{Ann}_R(H_{\mathfrak{a}}^{\text{cd}(\mathfrak{a},…

Let $k$ be a field with characteristic zero, $R$ be the ring $k[x_1, \cdots, x_n]$ and $I$ be a monomial ideal of $R$. We study the Artinian local algebra $R/I$ when considered as an $R$-module $M$. We show that the largest reduced…

We characterise ideals in two-dimensional regular local rings that arise as ideals of maximal minors of indecomposable integrally closed modules of rank three.

Let $(R, {\frak m})$ be a local ring, $I$ a proper ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$. We discuss the local homology modules of $H^d_I(M)$. When $M$ is Cohen-Macaulay, it is proved that $H^d_{{\frak…

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…

Let $ R $ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. We prove that the $ n $th syzygy module of a maximal Cohen-Macaulay $ R $-module cannot have a semidualizing direct summand for every $ n \ge 1 $. In particular, it follows that $ R $ is Gorenstein…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $\mathfrak{a}$ be a proper ideal of $R$ and $M$ be an $R$-complex in $\mathrm{D}(R)$. We prove that if $M\in\mathrm{D}^f_\sqsubset(R)$ (respectively,…

Given a germ of holomorphic map $f$ from $\mathbb C^n$ to $\mathbb C^{n+1}$, we define a module $M(f)$ whose dimension over $\mathbb C$ is an upper bound for the $\mathscr A$-codimension of $f$, with equality if $f$ is weighted homogeneous.…

Cohen-Macaulay dimension for modules over a commutative noetherian local ring has been defined by A. A. Gerko. That is a homological invariant sharing many properties with projective dimension and Gorenstein dimension. The main purpose of…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ denote a local Cohen-Macaulay ring and $I$ a non-nilpotent ideal of $R$. The purpose of this article is to investigate Faltings' finiteness dimension $f_I(R)$ and equidimensionalness of certain homomorphic image of $R$.…
