We raise the following general question regarding a ring graded by a group: "If $P$ is a ring-theoretic property, how does one define the graded version $P_{\operatorname{gr}}$ of the property $P$ in a meaningful way?". Some properties of…
The Auslander-Reiten Conjecture for commutative Noetherian rings predicts that a finitely generated module is projective when certain Ext-modules vanish. But what if those Ext-modules do not vanish? We study the annihilators of these…
The theory of small cancellation groups is well known. In this paper we introduce the notion of Group-like Small Cancellation Ring. This is the main result of the paper. We define this ring axiomatically, by generators and defining…
We show that the higher Chow groups with modulus of Binda-Kerz-Saito for a smooth quasi-projective scheme $X$ is a module over the Chow ring of $X$. From this, we deduce certain pull-backs, the projective bundle formula, and the blow-up…
We apply the theory of cotorsion pairs to study closure properties of classes of modules with finite projective dimension with respect to direct limit operations and to filtrations. We also prove that if the ring is an order in an…
We give a sufficient condition for a model theoretic structure $B$ to 'inherit' quantifier elimination from another structure $A$. This yields an alternative proof of one of the main result from \cite{kle}, namely quantifier elimination for…
The existence of the Gorenstein projective precovers over arbitrary rings is an open question. It is known that if the ring has finite Gorenstein global dimension, then every module has a Gorenstein projective precover. We prove here a…
Let $G$ be a simply-connected semisimple algebraic group scheme over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $r \geq 1$ and set $q = p^r$. We show that if a rational $G$-module $M$ is projective over the $r$-th…
We show that the category of projective modules over a graded commutative ring admits a triangulation with respect to module suspension if and only if the ring is a finite product of graded fields and exterior algebras on one generator over…
Let R be a commutative ring, M an R-module, and N a finitely presented R-module such that the intersection of Max(R) and Supp(N) is finite-dimensional and Noetherian. Suppose also that N is homothetic; in other words, suppose that the…
Let A be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension d and let P be a projective R=A[X_1,\ldots,X_l,Y_1,\ldots,Y_m,\frac {1}{f_1\ldots f_m}]-module of rank r\geq max {2,dim A+1, where f_i\in A[Y_i]. Then (i) \EL^1(R\op P) acts transitively…
We define a notion of complexity for modules over infinite groups. We show that if $M$ is a module over the group ring $kG$, and $M$ has complexity $\leq f$ (where $f$ is some complexity function) over some set of finite index subgroups of…
We investigate the "theta-deformed spheres" C(S^{3}_{theta}) and C(S^{4}_{theta}), where theta is any real number. We show that all finitely-generated projective modules over C(S^{3}_{theta}) are free, and that C(S^{4}_{theta}) has the…
Many results have been established that show how arithmetic conditions on conjugacy class sizes affect group structure. A conjugacy class in $G$ is called vanishing if there exists some irreducible character of $G$ which evaluates to zero…
We introduce and study a relative cancellation property for associative algebras. We also prove a characterization result for polynomial rings which partially answers a question of Kraft.
We show that every finite group realizes as the outer automorphism group of an ICC hyperbolic group with Kazhdan property (T). This result complements the well-known theorem of Paulin stating that the outer automorphism group of every…
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Recent work of Hardesty, Nakano, and Sobaje gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of so-called mock injective…
A finite group $G$ is said to have the nilpotent decomposition property (ND) if for every nilpotent element $\alpha$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ one has that $\alpha e$ also belong to $\mathbb{Z}[G]$, for every primitive…
Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a…
Let $M, N$ be finite modules over a Noetherian local ring $R$, and let $G$ be the associated graded ring of $R$. We show that the bigraded Hilbert series of $gr(Tor^R(M,N))$ is obtained from that of $Tor^G(gr(M),gr(N))$ by negative…
