We prove that any finite-degree polynomial functor is topologically Noetherian. This theorem is motivated by the recent resolution of Stillman's conjecture and a recent Noetherianity proof for the space of cubics. Via work by…
We consider the question of whether the injective modules generate the unbounded derived category of a ring as a triangulated category with arbitrary coproducts. We give an example of a non-Noetherian commutative ring where they don't, but…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S \subseteq R$ be a multiplicative set. An ideal $Q$ of $R$ (disjoint from $S$) is said to be $S$-primary if there exists an $s\in S$ such that for all $x,y\in R$ with $xy\in Q$, we have…
Let R be a commutative Noetherian domain, and let M and N be finitely generated R-modules. We give new criteria for determining when M tensor N has torsion. We also give constructive formulas for producing a module in the isomorphism class…
The twisted homogeneous coordinate ring is one of the basic constructions of the noncommutative projective geometry of Artin, Van den Bergh, and others. Chan generalized this construction to the multi-homogeneous case, using a concept of…
Stafford proved that every left or right ideal of the Weyl algebra A_n(K) is generated by two elements. In this paper we prove that every left or right ideal of the ring of differential operators over the field of formal Laurent series…
Several years ago, Bondal, Rouquier and Van den Bergh introduced the notion of the dimension of a triangulated category, and Rouquier proved that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a separated scheme of finite type over a…
Let X be a toric variety over a field K determined by a triangle. Let Y be the blow-up at (1,1) in X. In this paper we give some criteria for finite generation of the Cox ring of Y in the case where Y has a curve C such that C^2 \le 0 and…
Let A be a commutative ring, and \a a weakly proregular ideal in A. This includes the noetherian case: if A is noetherian then any ideal in it is weakly proregular; but there are other interesting examples. In this paper we prove the MGM…
In this paper we solve a problem, originally raised by Grothendieck, on the transfer of Cohen-Macaulayness to tensor products of algebras over a field. As a prelude to this, we investigate the grade for some specific types of ideals that…
A few years ago, Huneke and Leuschke proved a theorem which solved a conjecture of Schreyer. It asserts that an excellent Cohen-Macaulay local ring of countable Cohen-Macaulay type which is complete or has uncountable residue field has at…
We show that the cosupport of a commutative noetherian ring is precisely the set of primes appearing in a minimal pure-injective resolution of the ring. As an application of this, we prove that every countable commutative noetherian ring…
Let $A$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension $n$ ($n \ge 3$). Let $I$ be a local complete intersection ideal in $A[T]$ of height $n$. Suppose $I/{I^2}$ is free ${A[T]}/I$-module of rank $n$ and $({A[T]}/I)$ is torsion in…
We study the classical K\"othe's problem, concerning the structure of non-commutative rings with the property that: ``every left module is a direct sum of cyclic modules". In 1934, K\"othe showed that left modules over Artinian principal…
Idealization of a module $K$ over a commutative ring $S$ produces a ring having $K$ as an ideal, all of whose elements are nilpotent. We develop a method that under suitable field-theoretic conditions produces from an $S$-module $K$ and…
We classify all tilting and cotilting classes over commutative noetherian rings in terms of descending sequences of specialization closed subsets of the Zariski spectrum. Consequently, all resolving subcategories of finitely generated…
The ideal I generated by the 2x2 quantum minors in the algebra A = O_q(M_{m,n}(k)) (the quantized coordinate algebra of mxn matrices) is investigated. Analogues of the First and Second Fundamental Theorems of Invariant Theory are proved. In…
A commutative ring is said to have ITI with respect to an ideal a if the a-torsion functor preserves injectivity of modules. Classes of rings with ITI or without ITI with respect to certain sets of ideals are identified. Behaviour of ITI…
Let $\hat{R}$ be the $I$-adic completion of a commutative ring $R$ with respect to a finitely generated ideal $I$. We give a necessary and sufficient criterion for the category of perfect complexes over $\hat{R}$ to be equivalent to the…
Some descriptions of linked ideals in a commutative Notherian ring $R$ are provided in terms of the Associated prime ideals of $R$. Then, among other things, we make some characterization of Cohen-Macaulay, Gorenstein and regular local…
