If $k$ is a field, $A$ and $B$ $k$-algebras, $M$ a faithful left $A$-module, and $N$ a faithful left $B$-module, we recall the proof that the left $A\otimes_k B$-module $M\otimes_k N$ is again faithful. If $k$ is a general commutative ring,…

Let $\Lambda$ be an artin algebra and let $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}_\Lambda$ the category of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules of finite projective dimension. We show that $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}_\Lambda$ is contravariantly finite in…

In earlier work, the author classified rigid representations of a quiver by finitely generated free modules over a principal ideal ring. Here we extend the results to representations of a quiver by finitely generated projective modules over…

We study reducing invariants of modules related to certain homological properties. For modules of finite reducing projective dimension, we establish grade inequalities. We prove that if $\mathbb{P}$ is the (uniform) Auslander condition, or…

Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M a module over R and let S be a G-set for a finite group G. We define a set MS to be the set of elements expressed as the formal finite sum of the form similar to the elements of group ring RG. The…

Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

Let G be a finite group of complex n by n unitary matrices generated by reflections acting on C^n. Let R be the ring of invariant polynomials, and \chi be a multiplicative character of G. Let \Omega^\chi be the R-module of \chi-invariant…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. We give criteria for flatness of $R$-modules in terms of associated primes and torsion-freeness of certain tensor products. This allows us to develop a criterion for regularity if $R$ has…

We study quasidiagonality and local reflexivity for $C^{*}$-algebras which are $C^*$-module over another $C^*$-algebra with compatible actions. We introduce and study a notion of amenability for vector valued traces.

Tilting modules over commutative rings were recently classified in [12]: they correspond bijectively to faithful Gabriel topologies of finite type. In this note we extend this classification by dropping faithfulness. The counterpart of an…

Consider a countably generated Hilbert $C^*$-module $\mathcal M$ over a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$. There is a measure of noncompactness $\lambda$ defined, roughly as the distance from finitely generated projective submodules, which is…

Let $G$ be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. The category of rational $G$-modules is not semisimple. We consider the question of when the tensor product of two simple…

In this paper, we aim to obtain some results under the condition that the dual of a module over a commutative Noetherian ring has finite Gorenstein dimension. In this direction, we derive results involving vanishing of Ext as well as the…

This article concerns linear parts of minimal resolutions of finitely generated modules over commutative local, or graded rings. The focus is on the linearity defect of a module, which marks the point after which the linear part of its…

We study the module categories of a tilted algebra C and the corresponding cluster-tilted algebra B. We investigate how various properties of a C-module are affected when considered in the module category of B. We give a complete…

Chevalley's theorem and it's converse, the Sheppard-Todd theorem, assert that finite reflection groups are distinguished by the fact that the ring of invariant polynomials is freely generated. We show that in the Euclidean case, a weaker…

We give counterexamples to the following conjecture of Auslander: given a finitely generated module $M$ over an Artin algebra $\Lambda$, there exists a positive integer $n_M$ such that for all finitely generated $\Lambda$-modules $N$, if…

The aim of this note is to understand under which conditions invertible modules over a commutative S-algebra in the sense of Elmendorf, Kriz, Mandell and May give rise to elements in the algebraic Picard group of invertible graded modules…

We develop a technique to construct finitely injective modules which are non trivial, in the sense that they are not direct sums of injective modules. As a consequence, we prove that a ring $R$ is left noetherian if and only if each…

Given a reflection group $G$ acting on a complex vector space $V$, a reflection map is the composition of an embedding $X \hookrightarrow V$ with the orbit map $V\to\mathbb C^p$ that maps a $G$-orbit to a point. Reflection maps can be very…
