Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, and let $C$ be a semidualizing $R$-module. In this paper, we study levels of bounded complexes of finitely generated $R$-modules with respect to the full subcategory $\mathsf{G}_{C}(R)$ consisting…

By a theorem of Roberts, the integral closure of a regular local ring in a finite abelian extension of its fraction field is Cohen-Macaulay, provided that the degree of the extension is coprime to the characteristic of the residue field. We…

Let R be a noetherian ring which is a finite module over its centre Z(R). This paper studies the consequences for R of the hypothesis that it is a maximal Cohen Macaulay Z(R)-module. Old results are reviewed and a number of new results are…

Let $R$ be a commutative, local, Noetherian ring. In a past article, the first author developed a theory of $R$-algebras, termed seeds, that can be mapped to balanced big Cohen-Macaulay $R$-algebras. In prime characteristic $p$, seeds can…

Let $S$ be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic $p\geq 3$ and $S^p$ the subring of $S$ obtained by lifting to $S$ the image of the Frobenius map on $S/pS$. Let $R$ be the integral closure of $S$ in a biradical extension…

We establish a criterion for the strong $F$-regularity of a (non-Gorenstein) Cohen-Macaulay reduced complete local ring of dimension at least $2$, containing a perfect field of prime characteristic $p$. We also describe an explicit…

In this paper, we introduce initially Cohen-Macaulay modules over a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$, a new class of $R$-modules that generalizes both Cohen-Macaulay and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules. A finitely generated…

We prove that, given a sufficiently functorial assignment from rings to big Cohen-Macaulay algebras $R \mapsto B$, that the associated big Cohen-Macaulay closure operation on ideals $I \mapsto I B \cap R$ necessarily satisfies the…

Let k be a field and R a pure subring of the infinite-dimensional polynomial ring k[X1;...]. If R is generated by monomials, then we show that the equality of height and grade holds for all ideals of R. Also, we show R satisfies the weak…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m} )$ be a Noetherian local ring, $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$. Set $\mathfrak{a}(M):=\mathfrak{a}_0(M)\cdots \mathfrak{a}_{d-1}(M)$, where $\mathfrak{a}_i(M):={\rm Ann}_RH^i_{\mathfrak{m}}(M)$ for…

We extend the Auslander-Buchweitz axioms and prove Cohen-Macaulay approximation results for fibred categories. Then we show that these axioms apply for the fibred category of pairs consisting of a finite type flat family of Cohen-Macaulay…

Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? This note provides, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens-Venkov…

This work introduces a notion of complexes of maximal depth, and maximal Cohen-Macaulay complexes, over a commutative noetherian local ring. The existence of such complexes is closely tied to the Hochster's ``homological conjectures", most…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and let $\fa$ be a proper ideal of $R$. A non-zero finitely generated $R$-module $M$ is called relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to $\fa$ if there is precisely one non vanishing local…

Let $R$ be an algebra essentially of finite type over a field $k$ and let $\Omega_k(R)$ be its module of K\"ahler differentials over $k$. If $R$ is a homogeneous complete intersection and $\mathrm{char}(k)=0$, we prove that $\Omega_k(R)$ is…

Let k be an algebraically closed field and A be a finitely generated, centrally finite, non- negatively graded (not necessarily commutative) k-algebra. In this note we construct a representation scheme for graded maximal Cohen-Macaulay A…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity (not necessarily local) and $\frak a$ a proper ideal of $R$. We study the invariance of some classes of $\frak a$-relative Cohen-Macaulay modules under pure ring homomorphisms and ring…

Let (R,m) be a commutative Noetherian local ring. It is known that R is Cohen-Macaulay if there exists either a nonzero finitely generated R-module of finite injective dimension or a nonzero Cohen-Macaulay R-module of finite projective…

The purpose of this paper is to present a family of Cohen-Macaulay monomial ideals such that their integral closures have embedded components and hence are not Cohen-Macaulay.

A duality theorem of the bounded derived category of quasi-finite comodules over an artinian coalgebra is established. Let $A$ be a noetherian complete basic semiperfect algebra over an algebraically closed field, and $C$ be its dual…
