Every quotient R/I of a semigroup ring R by a radical monomial ideal I has a unique minimal injective-like resolution by direct sums of quotients of R modulo prime monomial ideals. The quotient R/I is Cohen-Macaulay if and only if every…

It is shown in a local strongly $F$-regular ring there exits natural number $e_0$ so that if $M$ is any finitely generated maximal Cohen-Macaulay module then the pushforward of $M$ under the $e_0$th iterate of the Frobenius endomorphism…

Let $(R,\fm)$ be a local ring and $C$ be a homologically bounded and finitely generated $R$-complex. Then, we prove that $C$ is a dualizing complex of $R$ if and only if $C$ is a Cohen-Macaulay semidualizing complex of type one or…

Given a seminormal affine monoid M we consider several monoid properties of M and their connections to ring properties of the associated affine monoid ring K[M] over a field K. We characterize when K[M] satisfies Serre's condition (S_2) and…

Let (R,m,k) be a local ring. We establish a totally reflexive analogue of the New Intersection Theorem, provided for every totally reflexive R-module M, there is a big Cohen-Macaulay R-module B_M such that the socle of B_M\otimes_RM is…

This paper studies the relationship between Serre's condition $(\R_n)$ and Auslander--Buchweitz's maximal Cohen--Macaulay approximations. It is proved that a Gorenstein local ring satisfies $(\R_n)$ if and only if every maximal…

This paper concerns homological mirror symmetry for the pair-of-pants surface (A-side) and the non-isolated surface singularity $xyz=0$ (B-side). Burban-Drozd classified indecomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules on the B-side. We prove…

Over a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, the minimal number of generators of a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module is bounded above by its multiplicity. In 1984 Ulrich asked whether there always exist modules for which equality holds; such modules are…

Let k be an algebraically closed uncountable field of characteristic zero. Let R be a complete local hypersurface over k. Denote by CM(R) the category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay R-modules and by D^{sg}(R) the singularity category of R.…

We investigate the presence of Cohen-Macaulay ideals in invariant rings and show that an ideal of an invariant ring corresponding to a modular representation of a $p$-group is not Cohen-Macaulay unless the invariant ring itself is. As an…

We introduce higher-dimensional module factorizations associated to a regular sequence. They include higher-dimensional matrix factorizations, which are commutative cubes consisting of free modules with edges being classical matrix…

Let $R$ be an algebra essentially of finite type over a field $k$ and let $\Omega_k(R)$ be its module of K\"ahler differentials over $k$. If $R$ is a homogeneous complete intersection and $\mathrm{char}(k)=0$, we prove that $\Omega_k(R)$ is…

Let M be a matrix whose entries are power series in several variables and determinant det(M) does not vanish identically. The equation det(M)=0 defines a hypersurface singularity and the (co)-kernel of M is a maximally Cohen-Macaulay module…

In this paper, we prove that if Cohen-Macaulay local/graded rings $R_1$, $R_2$ and $R$ satisfy certain conditions regarding multiplicity and Cohen-Macaulay type, then almost Gorenstein property of $R$ implies Gorenstein properties for all…

Let (R,m) be a local, complete ring, X an artinian R-module of Noetherian dimension d; let x_1,...,x_d\in m be such that 0:_X (x_1,...,x_d)R has finite length. Then H^x_d(X) is a finite R-module, providing a positive answer to a question…

We prove (the excellent case of) Schreyer's conjecture that a local ring with countable Cohen--Macaulay type has at most a one-dimensional singular locus. Furthermore we prove that the localization of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of…

A rational map whose source and image are projectively embedded varieties has an {\em Arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay graph} if the Rees algebra of one (hence any) of its base ideals is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. If the map is birational onto the…

In this note, we study commutative Noetherian local rings having finitely generated modules of finite Gorenstein injective dimension. In particular, we consider whether such rings are Cohen-Macaulay.

We describe, by matrix factorizations, all the rank two maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over singularities of type $x_1^3+x_2^3+x_3^3+x_4^3$.

Recently, G. Floystad studied "higher Cohen-Macaulay property" of certain finite regular cell complexes. In this paper, we partially extend his results to squarefree modules, toric face rings, and simplicial posets. For example, we show…
