For finitely generated modules $M$ and $N $ over a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$, we give various sufficient criteria for detecting freeness of $M$ or $N$ via vanishing of some finitely many Ext modules $\textrm{Ext}^i_R(M,N)$ and…
In this paper we are concerned with the vanishing of $\textnormal{Tor}$ over complete intersection rings. Building on results of C. Huneke, D. Jorgensen and R. Wiegand, and, more recently, H. Dao, we obtain new results showing that good…
We prove that if $f:R \rightarrow S$ is a local homomorphism of noetherian local rings of finite flat dimension and $M$ is a non-zero finitely generated $S$-module whose Gorenstein flat dimension over $R$ is bounded by the difference of the…
We study two properties of modules over a local hypersurface $R$: decency and rigidity. We show that the vanishing of Hochster's function $\theta^R(M,N)$, known to imply decent intersection, also implies rigidity. We investigate the…
Hochster's theta invariant is defined for a pair of finitely generated modules on a hypersurface ring having only an isolated singularity. Up to a sign, it agrees with the Euler invariant of a pair of matrix factorizations. Working over the…
A central problem in the theory of Gorenstein dimensions over commutative noetherian rings is to find resolution-free characterizations of the modules for which these invariants are finite. Over local rings, this problem was recently solved…
Dualities of resolving subcategories of finitely generated modules over Artin algebras are characterized as dualities with respect to Wakamatsu tilting bimodules. By restriction of these dualities to resolving subcategories of finitely…
Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a commutative noetherian ring $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. By using a spectral sequence argument, it is shown that if either $\mathrm{dim}_RM\leq2$ and $\mathrm{H}^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(N)$…
We prove the depth formula, for homologically bounded complexes $X, Y$ provided that the complete intersection flat dimension of $X$ is finite and $\sup(X\utp_RY)<\infty$. In particular, let $M$ and $N$ are two $R$-modules and the complete…
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,…
We extend finite dimensional Chern-Simons theory to certain infinite dimensional principal bundles with connections, in particular to the frame bundle $FLM\to LM$ over the loop space of a Riemannian manifold $M$. Chern-Simons forms are…
Suppose V is a finite dimensional, complex vector space, A is a finite set of codimension one subspaces of V, and G is a finite subgroup of the general linear group GL(V) that permutes the hyperplanes in A. In this paper we study invariants…
For a Cohen-Macaulay ring $R$, we exhibit the equivalence of the bounded derived categories of certain resolving subcategories, which, amongst other results, yields an equivalence of the bounded derived category of finite length and finite…
In the derived category of the category of modules over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$, we define, for an ideal $\fa$ of $R$, two different types of cohomological dimensions of a complex $X$ in a certain subcategory of the derived…
For a von Neumann algebra M on a Hilbert space, A. Connes has constructed a module S and a derivation of M into S, such that M is approximately finite dimensional if and only if that derivation is inner. The paper contains a generalization…
We define a congruence module $\Psi_A(M)$ associated to a surjective $\mathcal O$-algebra morphism $\lambda\colon A \to \mathcal{O}$, with $\mathcal{O}$ a discrete valuation ring, $A$ a complete noetherian local $\mathcal{O}$-algebra…
For a finitely generated module $ M $ over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$, we settle the Auslander-Reiten conjecture when at least one of ${\rm Hom}_R(M,R)$ and ${\rm Hom}_R(M,M)$ has finite injective dimension. A number of new…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We prove a variety of new formulae for modules of finite quasi-projective or finite quasi-injective dimension. These include the Derived Depth Formula, itself an extension of Auslander famous…
We prove that over a commutative noetherian ring the three approaches to introducing depth for complexes: via Koszul homology, via Ext modules, and via local cohomology, all yield the same invariant. Using this result, we establish a far…
A notion of rigidity with respect to an arbitrary semidualizing complex C over a commutative noetherian ring R is introduced and studied. One of the main result characterizes C-rigid complexes. Specialized to the case when C is the relative…
