We introduce the notions of sequential sequence and sequential f-sequence in order to characterize sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules and sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay modules. Let R be a Noetherian local ring and M a finitely…

Different and distinct notions of regularity for modules exist in the literature. When these notions are restricted to commutative rings, they all coincide with the well-known von-Neumann regularity for rings. We give new characterizations…

Let $R$ a commutative ring, $\mathfrak{a} \subset R$ an ideal, $I$ an injective $R$-module and $S \subset R$ a multiplicatively closed set. When $R$ is Noetherian it is well-known that the $\mathfrak{a}$-torsion sub-module…

Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. An $R$-module $T$ is called $u$-$S$-torsion ($u$- always abbreviates uniformly) provided that $sT=0$ for some $s\in S$. The notion of $u$-$S$-exact sequences is also introduced from…

Let R be a regular ring of characteristic p. Hochster showed that the category of Lyubeznik's F-modules has enough injectives, so that every F-module has an injective resolution in this category. We show that under mild conditions on R, for…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring, let $\mathfrak a$ be an ideal of $A$. In this paper, we extend Hartshorne's characterization of cofinite complexes to more general classes of rings. We also determine conditions under which…

Let R be a ring (not necessarily commutative). A left R-module is said to be cotorsion if Ext 1 R (G, M) = 0 for any flat R-module G. It is well known that each pure-injective left R-module is cotorsion, but the converse does not hold: for…

We show that Iacob-Iyengar's answer to a question of Avromov-Foxby extends from Noetherian to coherent rings. In particular, a coherent ring R is regular if and only if the injective (resp. projective) dimension of each complex X of…

We obtain various characterizations of commutative Noetherian local rings $(R, \fm)$ in terms of homological dimensions of certain finitely generated modules. For example, we establish that $R$ is Gorenstein if the Gorenstein injective…

For an arbitrary ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R$ we define the notion of initially regular sequences on $R/I$. These sequences share properties with regular sequences. In particular, the length of an initially regular sequence provides a…

In this article, we introduce the notion of regular fusible modules. Let $R$ be a ring with an identity and $M$ an $R$-module. An element $0\neq m\in M$ is said to be regular fusible if there exists $r\in R$, a non zero-divisor of $M$, such…

A well-known result of K\"{o}the and Cohen-Kaplansky states that a commutative ring $R$ has the property that every $R$-module is a direct sum of cyclic modules if and only if $R$ is an Artinian principal ideal ring. This motivated us to…

Let $(Q, \mathfrak{n})$ be a regular local ring and let $f_1, \ldots, f_c \in \mathfrak{n}^2$ be a $Q$-regular sequence. Set $(A, \mathfrak{m}) = (Q/(\mathbf{f}), \mathfrak{n}/(\mathbf{f}))$. Further assume that the initial forms $f_1^*,…

In this paper, we characterize several properties of commutative notherian local rings in terms of the left perpendicular category of the category of finitely generated modules of finite projective dimension. As an application we prove that…

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, I and J ideals of R and M a finitely generated R-module. Let F be a covariant R-linear functor from the category of finitely generated R-modules to itself. We first show that if F is coherent, then…

We give an elementary proof prove of the preservation of the Noetherian condition for commutative rings with unity $R$ having at least one finitely generated ideal $I$ such that the quotient ring is again finitely generated, and $R$ is…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of $S$-pure $S$-exact sequences and $S$-absolutely pure modules which extend the classical notions of pure…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, $\frak a$ be an ideal of $R$, $\mathcal{S}$ be an arbitrary Serre subcategory of $R$-modules satisfying the condition $C_{\frak a}$ and let $\mathcal{N}$ be the subcategory of finitely generated…

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 $\mathrm{H}^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(N)$…

In this paper we introduce the concept of modulus of regularity as a tool to analyze the speed of convergence, including the finite termination, for classes of Fej\'er monotone sequences which appear in fixed point theory, monotone operator…
