Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We show that R is Gorenstein if and only if every finitely generated R-module can be embedded in a finitely generated R-module of finite projective dimension. This extends a result of Auslander…

L. Avramov, following D. Quillen, posed a conjecture to the effect that if $R \to A$ is a homomorphism of Noetherian rings then the Andr\'e-Quillen homology on the category of A-modules satisfies: $D_{s}(A|R;-) = 0$ for $s\gg 0$ implies…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$, $M$ and $N$ be two finitely generated $R$-modules. Let $t$ be a positive integer. We prove that if $R$ is local with maximal ideal $\fm$ and $ M\otimes_R N$ is of finite…

We survey noetherian rings $A$ over which the injective hull of every simple module is locally artinian. Then we give a general construction for algebras $A$ that do not have this property. In characteristic 0, we also complete the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $\pi$ be a finite group, $R\pi$ be the group ring of $\pi$ over $R$. Theorem 1. If $R$ is a commutative artinian ring and $\pi$ is a finite group. Then the Cartan map $c:K_0(R\pi)\to G_0(R\pi)$ is injective.…

It is proved that every commutative ring whose RD-injective modules are $\Sigma$-RD-injective is the product of a pure semi-simple ring and a finite ring. A complete characterization of commutative rings for which each artinian…

If $R$ is a ring with 1, we call a unital left $R$-module $M$ co-Hopfian (Hopfian) in the category of left $R$-modules if any monic (epic) endomorphism of $M$ is an automorphism. For commutative Noetherian $R$ we use results of Matlis to…

Let R be a commutative ring, and let S be a multiplicative subset of R. In this paper, we introduce and investigate the notion of S-FP-injective modules. Among other results, we show that, under certain conditions, a ring R is S-Noetherian…

Let R be an associative ring with identity, and let T be a tilting right R-module, with S=End(T). It is known that if R is a Noetherian algebra that satisfies the Auslander-Reiten conjecture, then so is S. In this paper, we consider the…

For any commutative ring $A$ we introduce a generalization of $S$--artinian rings using a hereditary torsion theory $\sigma$ instead of a multiplicative closed subset $S\subseteq{A}$. It is proved that if $A$ is a totally $\sigma$--artinian…

Matlis showed that the injective hull of a simple module over a commutative Noetherian ring is Artinian. Many non-commutative Noetherian rings whose injective hulls of simple modules are locally Artinian have been extensively studied…

In this paper we prove that if $R$ is a commutative refinement ring and $M$, $N$ are two $R$-modules then, $M\cong N$ if and only if for every maximal ideal $m$ of $R$, $M_m\cong N_m$. We prove if $R$ is a refinement ring, then every…

It is shown that if a bilinear map f: A x B --> C of modules over a commutative ring k is nondegenerate (i.e., if no nonzero element of A annihilates all of B, and vice versa), and A and B are Artinian, then A and B are of finite length.…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ an $R$-module with $\operatorname{cd}(I,M)=c$. In this article, we first show that there exists a descending chain of ideals $I=I_c\supsetneq I_{c-1}\supsetneq \cdots \supsetneq I_0$…

Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring. A finitely generated R-module C is semidualizing if it is self-orthogonal and satisfies the condition Hom_R(C,C) \cong R. We prove that a Cohen-Macaulay ring R with dualizing module D admits a…

A left and right noetherian semiperfect ring R is known to be indecomposable if and only if its factor by the second power of Jacobson radical is. This characterisation is used to study simple R-modules in terms of their Ext groups. It is…

Let $S$ be a deeply embedded, equicharacteristic, Artinian Gorenstein local ring. We prove that if $R$ is a non-Gorenstein quotient of $S$ of small colength, then every totally reflexive $R$-module is free. Indeed, the second syzygy of the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $D$ an $R$-module. It is shown that if $D$ is pure injective, then $D$ is isomorphic to a direct summand of the direct product of a family of finitely embedded modules. As a result, it follows…

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 R be a ring and G a group. An R-module A is said to be artinian-by-(finite rank) if TorR(A) is artinian and A/TorR(A) has finite R-rank. The authors study ZG-modules A such that A/CA(H) is artinian-by-(finite rank) (as a Z-module) for…
