If R is a commutative ring, we prove that every finitely generated module has a pure-composition series with indecomposable factors and any two such series are isomorphic if and only if R is a Bezout ring and a CF-ring.

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a commutative noetherian ring $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. By using a spectral sequence argument, it is shown that if either $\mathrm{dim}_RM\leq2$ and $\mathrm{H}^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(N)$…

For a commutative Noetherian local ring we define and study the class of modules having reducible complexity, a class containing all modules of finite complete intersection dimension. Various properties of this class of modules are given,…

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ denote an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring $R$. Let $M$ and $N$ be two $R$-modules. In this paper, we give partial answers on the extension of Hartshorne's conjecture about the cofiniteness of torsion and extension…

Let $T_R(M)$ be a tensor ring and $\mathcal{X}$, $\mathcal{Y}$ be two classes of $R$-modules. Under certain conditions, we prove that a $T_R(M)$-module $(A, u)$ is $Ind(\mathcal{X})$-Gorenstein projective if and only if $u$ is monomorphic…

Motivated by the Bass conjecture, we study finitely generated modules of finite injective dimension and the additional constraints they impose on the ambient ring. Beyond the Cohen--Macaulay property, the existence of such modules forces…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},K)$ be an $F$-finite Noetherian local ring which has a canonical ideal $I \subsetneq R$. We prove that if $R$ is $S_2$ and $H^{d-1}_{\mathfrak{m}}(R/I)$ is a simple $R\{F\}$-module, then $R$ is a strongly $F$-regular…

We study Cohen-Macaulay non-Gorenstein local rings $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ admitting certain totally reflexive modules. More precisely, we give a description of the Poincar\'{e} series of $k$ by using the Poincar\'{e} series of a non-zero…

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…

By finding a p-adic obstruction, we construct many examples of positive characteristic complete noetherian local rings which do not admit any module-finite Cohen-Macaulay extension. These examples should be contrasted with a result of…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian local ring, and let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. Inspired by works of Vasconcelos and Briggs on characterization of complete intersection local rings through the homological properties of the…

Let $R$ be a local ring with residue field $k$ and $M$, $N$ be finitely generated modules over $R$. It is well known that $Tor^R_i(M, N) = 0$ for $i \gg 0$ if $pd_R(M) < \infty$ or $pd_R(N) < \infty$. The ring $R$ is said to satisfy the…

In commutative ring theory, there is a theorem of Cohen which states that if in a commutative ring all prime ideals are finitely generated then every ideal is finitely generated. However, it is known that having only maximal ideals finitely…

It is proved that if one of the finite modules M and N, over a local ring R, has reducible complexity and has finite Gorenstein dimension then the depth formula holds, provided TorR_i(M,N) = 0 for i>>0. We also study the vanishing of…

Let R be a commutative ring, and let L and L' be R-modules. We investigate finiteness conditions (e.g., noetherian, artinian, mini-max, Matlis reflexive) of the modules Ext^i_R(L,L') and Tor_i^R(L,L') when L and L' satisfy combinations of…

Gerko proves that if an artinian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m}_R)$ possesses a sequence of strongly Tor-independent modules of length $n$, then $\mathfrak{m}_R^n\neq 0$. This generalizes readily to Cohen-Macaulay rings. We present a version…
