We observe that a finitely generated algebraic algebra R (over a field) is finite dimensional if and only if the associated graded ring grR is right noetherian, if and only if grR has right Krull dimension, if and only if grR satisfies a…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a complete local (Noetherian) ring to be the completion of an uncountable local (Noetherian) domain with a countable spectrum. Our results suggest that uncountable local domains with countable…
Generalizing a result of Roe \cite{Roe} Strichartz proved in \cite{Str} that if a doubly-infinite sequence $\{f_k\}$ of functions on $\R^n$ satisfies $f_{k+1}=\Delta f_k$ and $|f_{k}(x)|\leq M$ for all $k=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,...$ and $x\in \R^n$,…
It is well-known that for a large class of local rings of positive characteristic, including complete intersection rings, the Frobenius endomorphism can be used as a test for finite projective dimension. In this paper, we exploit this…
We study the connectedness property of the spectrum of forcing algebras over a noetherian ring. In particular we present for an integral base ring a geometric criterion for connectedness in terms of horizontal and vertical components of the…
We prove that a commutative noetherian ring $R$ is Gorenstein of dimension at most $d$ if $d+1$ is an upper bound on the G-levels of perfect $R$-complexes. For $R$ local, we prove a formula for levels, with respect to injective or…
We provide an irreducibility test in the ring K[[x]][y] whose complexity is quasi-linear with respect to the valuation of the discriminant, assuming the input polynomial F square-free and K a perfect field of characteristic zero or greater…
We construct examples of noetherian three-dimensional local geometrically normal domains of prime characteristic which are $F$-injective but not $F$-full. Along the way, we find examples of two-dimensional local geometrically normal domains…
Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a noetherian local ring, $M$ a separated $R$-module (i.e. $\bigcap\limits_{n\geq 1}\mathfrak{m}^n M = 0$) and $\widehat{M} = \lim\limits_{\leftarrow} M/\mathfrak{m}^n M$ its completion. Generally, $M$ is not pure…
Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring and consider the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable totally reflexive R-modules. We prove that if this set is finite, then either it has exactly one element, represented by the rank 1…
The $i$-th local cohomology module of a finitely generated graded module $M$ over a standard positively graded commutative Noetherian ring $R$, with respect to the irrelevant ideal $R_+$, is itself graded; all its graded components are…
Let $f : X \longrightarrow Y$ be a proper and local complete intersection morphism of schemes. We prove that $\mathbb{R}f_{*}$ preserves perfect complexes, without any projectivity or noetherian assumptions. This provides a different proof…
We compare two generalizations of Tate homology: stable homology and the J-completion of Tor, also known as complete homology. For finitely generated modules, we show that the two theories agree over Artin algebras and over commutative…
The $\{0,\frac{1}{2}\}$-closure of a rational polyhedron $\{ x \colon Ax \le b \}$ is obtained by adding all Gomory-Chv\'atal cuts that can be derived from the linear system $Ax \le b$ using multipliers in $\{0,\frac{1}{2}\}$. We show that…
For a flat proper morphism of finite presentation between schemes with almost coherent structural sheaves (in the sense of Faltings), we prove that the higher direct images of quasi-coherent and almost coherent modules are quasi-coherent…
In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…
Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian (not necessarily local) ring, $\frak a$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. The purpose of this paper is to show that $f^n_{\frak a}(M)=\inf \{0\leq i\in\mathbb{Z}|\, \dim…
We introduce a fundamental homological invariant, called Serre depth, which stratifies Serre's conditions in the same way that depth stratifies the Cohen-Macaulay property. We study the Serre depths of modules over arbitrary Noetherian…
We prove that if $R$ is a commutative Noetherian ring, then every countably generated flat $R$-module is quite flat, i.e., a direct summand of a transfinite extension of localizations of $R$ in countable multiplicative subsets. We also show…
Let $A$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We present a relationship between simple-minded systems and coherent rings.
