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…

Let $S$ be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic two and $R$ the integral closure of $S$ in a biquadratic extension of its quotient field obtained by adjoining roots of sufficiently general square free elements $f,g\in…

In this article, we prove a strong version of local Bertini theorem for normality on local rings in mixed characteristic. The main result asserts that a generic hyperplane section of a normal, Cohen-Macaulay, and complete local domain of…

The goal of this note is to record the following curious fact: let $(S,\n)$ be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic $p>0$ and dimension $d$. Let $L$ denote the quotient field of $S$ and $K=L(\omega)$ with $\omega^p\in…

In this paper, an algebraic theory for local rings of finite embedding dimension is developed. Several extensions of (Krull) dimension are proposed, which are then used to generalize singularity notions from commutative algebra. Finally,…

By finding a p-adic obstruction, we construct many examples of positive characteristic complete noetherian local rings which do not admit any module-finite Cohen-Macaulay extension. These examples should be contrasted with a result of…

We give a combinatorial description of local cohomology modules of a graded module over a semigroup ring, with support at the graded maximal ideal. This combinatorial framework yields Hochster-type formulas for the Hilbert series of such…

In the present paper, it is proved that any complete local domain of mixed characteristic has a weakly almost Cohen-Macaulay algebra in the sense that some system of parameters is a weakly almost regular sequence, which is a notion defined…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field. We introduce the concept of sequentially almost Cohen-Macaulay modules and describe the extremal rays of the cone of local cohomology tables of finitely generated graded $R$-modules which are…

We study the Cohen-Macaulay property of a particular class of radical extensions of an unramified regular local ring having mixed characteristic.

Over a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, the minimal number of generators of a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module is bounded above by its multiplicity. In 1984 Ulrich asked whether there always exist modules for which equality holds; such modules are…

We show that any quasi-Gorenstein deformation of a $3$-dimensional quasi-Gorenstein Buchsbaum local ring with $I$-invariant $1$ admits a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module, provided it is a quotient of a Gorenstein ring. Such a class of rings…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Henselian Cohen-Macaulay local ring and let CM(A) be the category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay $A$-modules. We construct $T \colon CM(A)\times CM(A) \rightarrow mod(A)$, a subfunctor of $Ext^1_A(-, -)$ and use it to…

Over $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay rings with a canonical module, $d$-cotilting classes containing the maximal and balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules are classified. Particular emphasis is paid to the direct limit closure of the balanced…

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…

In this paper we study the local cohomology of all finitely generated bigraded modules over a standard bigraded polynomial ring which have only one nonvanishing local cohomology with respect to one of the irrelevant bigraded ideals.

By extending some basic results of Grothendieck and Foxby about local cohomology to commutative DG-rings, we prove new amplitude inequalities about finite DG-modules of finite injective dimension over commutative local DG-rings,…

In this paper we give a bountiful number of examples of two dimensional mixed characteristic rings of finite Cohen Macaulay type. For a large sub-class of these examples we give a complete description of its indecomposable maximal…

We show that all reduced closed subschemes of projective space that have a Cohen-Macaulay graded coordinate ring are of wild Cohen-Macaulay type, except for a few cases which we completely classify.

We show how for a three-dimensional complete local ring in positive characteristic, the existence of an F-invariant, differentiable derivation implies Hochster's small MCM conjecture. As an application we show that any three-dimensional…
