In this paper we study commutative rings $R$ whose prime ideals are direct sums of cyclic modules. In the case $R$ is a finite direct product of commutative local rings, the structure of such rings is completely described. In particular, it…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring with residue class field k. In this paper, we mainly investigate direct summands of the syzygy modules of k. We prove that R is regular if and only if some syzygy module of k has a semidualizing…

By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: "Let R be any ring and (A, B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A, B) is of finite type." We prove a…

A module over a ring $R$ is pure projective provided it is isomorphic to a direct summand of a direct sum of finitely presented modules. We develop tools for the classification of pure projective modules over commutative noetherian rings.…

Building on his reduction to the case of an unramified complete regular local ring R of mixed characteristic, we propose a proof in the framework of P. Scholze's perfectoid theory. The main ingredients are the perfectoid "Abhyankar lemma"…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. One may ask when a general $R$-module $P$ that satisfies $P \oplus R \cong R^n$ has a free summand of a given rank. M. Raynaud translated this question into one about sections of certain maps between Stiefel…

We prove the following result. Let k be an infinite perfect field of positive characteristic and assume that strong resolution of singularities holds over k. Let R be a localization of a commutative d-dimensional k-algebra of finite type…

Let $R$ be a ring, and consider a left $R$-module given with two (generally infinite) direct sum decompositions, $A\oplus(\bigoplus_{i\in I} C_i)=M=B\oplus(\bigoplus_{j\in J} D_j),$ such that the submodules $A$ and $B$ and the $D_j$ are…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity. A unital right $R$-module $M$ is called strongly finite dimensional if Sup$\{{\rm G.dim} (M/N) | N\leq M\} < +\infty$. Properties of strongly finite dimensional modules are explored. It is also…

It is proved that a noetherian commutative local ring A containing a field is regular if there is a complex M of free A-modules with the following properties: M_i=0 for i not in [0,dim A]; the homology of M has finite length; H_0(M)…

A triangular matrix ring A is defined by a triplet (R,S,M) where R and S are rings and M is an S-R-bimodule. In the main theorem of this paper we show that if T is a tilting S-module, then under certain homological conditions on M as an…

A summation is a shift-invariant ${\rm R}$-module homomorphism from a submodule of ${\rm R}[[\sigma]]$ to ${\rm R}$ or another ring. [11] formalized a method for extending a summation to a larger domain by telescoping. In this paper, we…

Let $(R,\frak m)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring. In this paper, we prove that if $\frak m$ is decomposable, then for any finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of infinite projective dimension $\frak m$ is a direct summand of (a direct…

For von Neumann *-regular rings R of endomorphisms (the involution given by taking adjoints) of inner product spaces we provide a condition on r in R (in terms of action of r on finite dimensional subspaces) for r being a unit. It remains…

In this note we sketch a proof of a fundamental conjecture, the codimension-three conjecture, for microdifferential holonomic systems with regular singularities. It states that any regular holonomic E-module extends beyond a…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. First, we introduce and study the $S$-projective dimensions and $S$-injective dimensions of $R$-modules, and then explore the $S$-global dimension…

In this note we give a different and direct short proof to a previous result of Nastasescu and Torrecillas in \cite{NT} stating that if the rational part of any right $C^*$ module $M$ is a direct sumand in $M$ then $C$ must be finite…

We prove the following result, which is motivated by the recent work of Kurano and Roberts on Serre's positivity conjecture. Assume that (R,m) is a local ring with finitely-generated module M such that R/ann(M) is quasi-unmixed and contains…

Let $(R,\fm,k)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring with dualizing complex $\dua R$, normalized by $\Ext^{\depth(R)}_R(k,\dua R)\cong k$. Partly motivated by a long standing conjecture of Tachikawa on (not necessarily commutative)…

We prove that if $B\subseteq A$ is an extension of finite dimensional algebras such that the projective dimension of $A/B$ as a $B$-bimodule is finite, if $A$ has finite finitistic dimension, then so does $B$. We exhibit examples…
