Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We prove that the finiteness of the injective dimension of a finitely generated $R$-module $C$ is determined by the existence of a Cohen--Macaulay module $M$ that satisfies an inequality…
Let $R$ be a domain of Krull dimension one, we study when the class $\mathcal{F}$ of modules over $R$ that are arbitrary direct sums of finitely generated torsion-free modules is closed under direct summands. If $R$ is local, we show that…
Over Cohen--Macaulay rings admitting a pointwise dualizing module, we show that the class of modules of restricted projective dimension bounded by any integer is finitely deconstructible and that the class of modules of restricted flat…
In this paper we introduce techniques to gauge the torsion of the tensor product $A\otimes_RB$ of two finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring $R$. The outlook is very different from the study of the rigidity of Tor carried out in…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian Cohen-Macaulay local ring that has positive dimension and prime characteristic. Li proved that the tensor product of a finitely generated non-free $R$-module $M$ with the Frobenius endomorphism…
Motivated by their impact on homological algebra, the change of rings results have been the subject of several interesting works in Gorenstein homological algebra over Noetherian rings. In this paper, we investigate the change of rings…
We study the projective dimension of finitely generated modules over cluster-tilted algebras End(T) where T is a cluster-tilting object in a cluster category C. It is well-known that all End(T)-modules are of the form Hom(T,M) for some…
We investigate two invariants of Noetherian semiperfect rings, namely the depth and a new invariant we call the "delooping level". These give lower and upper bounds for the finitistic dimension, respectively. As first theorems, we give a…
A celebrated conjecture of Auslander and Reiten claims that a finitely generated module $M$ that has no extensions with $M\oplus \Lambda$ over an Artin algebra $\Lambda$ must be projective. This conjecture is widely open in general, even…
We introduce a similarity relation between submodules of a module $M$ over a ring $R$, extending the classical notion of similarity for right ideals. Focusing on (faithfully) projective modules, we establish a sharp lower bound for the…
Let $(R,\fm)$ be a local ring, and let $C$ be a semidualizing complex. We establish the equality $r_R(Z) = \nu(\Ext^{g-\inf C}_R(Z,C))\mu^{\depth C}_R(\mathfrak{m}, C)$ for a homologically finite and bounded complex $Z$ with finite…
Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian (not necessarily local) ring, $M$ an arbitrary $R$-module and $I$ an ideal of $R$ of dimension one. It is shown that the $R$-module $\Ext^i_R(R/I,M)$ is finitely generated (resp. weakly Laskerian) for…
A finitely generated module C over a commutative noetherian ring R is semidualizing if Hom_R(C,C) \cong R and Ext^i_R(C,C) = 0 for all i \geq 1. For certain local Cohen-Macaulay rings (R,m), we verify the equality of Hilbert-Samuel…
We prove that the module categories of Noether algebras (i.e., algebras module finite over a noetherian center) and affine noetherian PI algebras over a field enjoy the following product property: Whenever a direct product $\prod_{n \in…
Quasi-projective dimension of modules over associative rings is generalized in this paper to the one of complexes of modules. Basic properties of this dimension are established, including a comparison result with projective dimension and a…
Let $(R, \m)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring with $\m^3 =(0)$. We give a condition for $R$ to have a non-free module of G-dimension zero. We shall also construct a family of non-isomorphic indecomposable modules of G-dimension zero…
Let a be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R with identity. We study finitely generated R-modules M whose a-finiteness and a-cohomological dimensions are equal. In particular, we examine relative analogues of quasi-Buchsbaum,…
Many known results on finite von Neumann algebras are generalized, by purely algebraic proofs, to a certain class ${\mathcal C}$ of finite Baer *-rings. The results in this paper can also be viewed as a study of the properties of Baer…
Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a noetherian (not necessarily local) ring $R$ and $M$ an $R$-module with $\mathrm{Supp}_RM\subseteq\mathrm{V}(\mathfrak{a})$. We show that if $\mathrm{dim}_RM\leq2$, then $M$ is $\mathfrak{a}$-cofinite if…
This paper studies infinite acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules over a commutative noetherian local ring $(R,m)$ with $m^3=0$. Conclusive results are obtained on the growth of the ranks of the modules in acyclic complexes,…
