We study the flatness and the projectivity of Hopf algebras, defined over a Dedekind ring, over their Hopf subalgebras. We give a criterion for the faithful flatness and use it to show the faithful flatness of an arbitrary flat Hopf algebra…

A ring $R$ satisfies the {\it strong rank condition} (SRC) if, for every natural number $n$, the free $R$-submodules of $R^n$ all have rank $\leq n$. Let $G$ be a group and $R$ a ring strongly graded by $G$ such that the base ring $R_1$ is…

For a connected regular scheme X, flat and of finite type over Spec(Z), we construct a reciprocity homomorphism \rho_X: C_X --> \pi_1^\ab(X), which is surjective and whose kernel is the connected component of the identity. The (topological)…

We prove a fast computable criterion that expresses non-flatness in terms of torsion: Let R be a regular algebra of finite type over a field K of characteristic zero and let F be a module finitely generated over an R-algebra of finite type.…

If $R$ and $M$ are Hilbert modules (in the sense of R. G. Douglas and V. I. Paulsen), we study the relationship between invertible module maps $X:R\to{M}$ and $X_{z}:R/R_{z}\to{M/M_{z}}$. In particular, for quasi-free Hilbert modules $R$…

Fix an odd prime $p$. The results in this paper are modeled after work of Hesselholt and Hesselholt-Madsen on the $p$-typical absolute de Rham-Witt complex in mixed characteristic. We have two primary results. The first is an exact sequence…

Let $R=C[[t]]$ be the ring of power series over an algebraically closed field $C$ of characteristic zero. We show that each connection on a finite flat $R((x))$-module is the sum of a regular singular connection and a diagonalizable…

K. R. Nagarajan constructed an example of a formal power series ring of dimension two, over a field of characteristic two, with the action of a cyclic group of order two, such that the ring of invariants is not noetherian. We point out how…

Constructive proofs of fact that a stably free left $S$-module $M$ with rank$(M)\geq$sr$(S)$ is free, where sr$(S)$ denotes the stable rank of an arbitrary ring $S$, were developed in some articles. Additionally, in such papers, are…

This paper introduces and studies a new class of rings called {\it $U\sqrt{\Delta}$-rings}. A ring $R$ is $U\sqrt{\Delta}$ if every non-unit element can be written as the product of a unit and an element from $\sqrt{\Delta(R)}$, where…

Let $\mathbb K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $\mathbb K[X]$ the polynomial ring in $n$ variables. The vector space $T_n = \mathbb K[X]$ is a $\mathbb K[X]$-module with the action $x_i \cdot v = v_{x_i}'$ for $v…

We introduce and study a nontrivial generalization of uniserial modules and rings. A module is called weakly uniserial if its submodules are comparable regarding embedding. Also, a right (resp., left) weakly uniserial ring is a ring which…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, and let $S$ be a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we investigate the notion of $S$-cotorsion modules. An $R$-module $C$ is called $S$-cotorsion if $\text{Ext}^{1}_{R}(F,C) = 0$ for every $S$-flat…

Let $G$ be a cyclic $p$-group for some prime number $p>0$ and let $R$ be a complete discrete valuation ring in mixed characteristic. In this paper, we present a generalization of two results that characterize $RG$-permutation modules,…

Let R be a polynomial ring and M a finitely generated graded R-module of maximal grade (which means that the ideal I_t(\cA) generated by the maximal minors of a homogeneous presentation matrix, \cA, of M has maximal codimension in R).…

Given a homomorphism of commutative noetherian rings R --> S and an S-module N, it is proved that the Gorenstein flat dimension of N over R, when finite, may be computed locally over S. When, in addition, the homomorphism is local and N is…

The notion of clean rings and 2-good rings have many variations, and have been widely studied. We provide a few results about two new variations of these concepts and discuss the theory that ties these variations to objects and properties…

A Theorem of Wang in [Wa] implies that any holomorphic parallelism on a compact complex manifold M is flat with respect to some complex Lie algebra structure whose dimension coincides with that of M. We study here rational parallelisms on…

We study properties of a C_2-cofinite vertex operator algebra of CFT type. If it is also rational and V'\cong V, then the rigidity of the tensor category of modules has been proved by Huang. When we treat an irrational C_2-cofinite VOA, the…

Let $X$ be a ruled surface over a curve of genus $g$. We prove that $X$ has a scalar-flat Hermitian metric if and only if $g\geq 2$ and $m(X)>2-2g$ where $m(X)$ is an intrinsic number depends on the complex structure of $X$.
