Let $I$ denote an ideal in a commutative Noetherian ring $R$. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. The $I$-adic completion is defined by $\hat{M}^I = \varprojlim{}_{\alpha} M/I^{\alpha}M$. Then $M$ is called $I$-adic complete whenever the natural…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with normal subgroup $N$, and $R$ a complete discrete valuation ring in mixed characteristic. We characterize permutation $RG$-modules in terms of modules for $RN$ and $R[G/N]$. The result generalizes both the…

For a local ring $(R, \M)$ of infinite residue field and positive depth, we address the question raised by H. Dao on how to control the asymptotic behaviour of the $\M$-full, full, and weakly $\M$-full properties of certain ideals (such…

In this note we show that a ring R is left perfect if and only if every left R-module is weakly supplemented if and only if R is semilocal and the radical of the countably infinite free left R-module has a weak supplement.

We show that the condition of being categorical in a tail of cardinals can be characterized algebraically for several classes of modules. $Theorem.$ Assume $R$ is an associative ring with unity. 1. The class of locally pure-injective…

Let (A,m_A) -> (B,m_B) be a local morphism of local noetherian rings and M a finitely generated B-module. Then it follows from Tor^A_1(M,A/m_A) = 0 that M is a flat A-module. This is usually called the "local criterion of flatness". We give…

Minimal free resolutions of graded modules over a noetherian polynomial ring have been attractive objects of interest for more than a hundred years. We introduce and study two natural extensions in the setting of graded modules over a…

Wiebe's criterion, which recognizes complete intersections of dimension zero among the class of noetherian local rings, is revisited and exploited in order to provide information on what we call C.I.0-ideals (those such that the…

It follows from a recent paper by Ding and Wang that any ring which is generalized supplemented as left module over itself is semiperfect. The purpose of this note is to show that Ding and Wang's claim is not true and that the class of…

In this article, we construct integrally closed modules of rank two over a two-dimensional regular local ring. The modules are explicitly constructed from a given complete monomial ideal with respect to a regular system of parameters. Then…

We prove rigidity type results on the vanishing of stable (co)homology for modules of finite complete intersection dimension, results which generalize and improve upon known results. We also introduce a notion of pre-rigidity, which…

Let $M$ be a free module of rank $m$ over a commutative unital ring $R$ and let $N$ be its free submodule. We consider the problem when a given element of the exterior product $\Lambda^pM$ is divisible, in a sense, over elements of the…

This continues recent work in a paper by Corner, Gobel and Goldsmith. A particular question was left open: Is it possible to carry over the results concerning the undecidability of torsion--free Crawley groups to modules over the ring of…

We present a procedure that constructs, in a combinatorial manner, a chain complex of free modules over a polynomial ring in finitely many variables, modulo an ideal generated by quadratic monomials. Applying this procedure to two specific…

We show that the deformation theory of a perfect complex and that of its determinant are related by the trace map, in a general setting of sheaves on a site. The key technical step, in passing from the setting of modules over a ring where…

We present various approaches to J. Herzog's theory of generalized local cohomology and explore its main aspects, e.g., (non-)vanishing results as well as a general local duality theorem which extends, to a much broader class of rings,…

Using the description of the Frobenius limit of modules over the ring of invariants under an action of a finite group on a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic $p>0$ developed by Symonds and the author, we give a characterization…

We consider deformations of bounded complexes of modules for a profinite group G over a field of positive characteristic. We prove a finiteness theorem which provides some sufficient conditions for the versal deformation of such a complex…

A very useful result concerning flatness in Algebraic Geometry is EGA's ``fiber'' criterion. We propose similar fiber criteria to verify flatness of a module while avoiding ``finiteness'' assumptions. Motivated by a Tannakian viewpoint…

This paper studies algebraic residual intersections in rings with Serre's condition \( S_{s} \). It demonstrates that residual intersections admit free approaches i.e. perfect subideal with the same radical. This fact leads to determining a…
