We prove that $F$-injectivity localizes, descends under faithfully flat homomorphisms, and ascends under flat homomorphisms with Cohen-Macaulay and geometrically $F$-injective fibers, all for arbitrary Noetherian rings of prime…

Phantom depth, phantom nonzerodivisors, and phantom exact sequences are analogues of the non-"phantom" notions which have been useful in tackling the (very difficult) localization problem in tight closure theory. In the present paper, these…

Let (R,m) -> (S,n) be a flat local homomorphism of excellent local rings. We investigate the conditions under which the weak or strong F-regularity of R passes to S. We show that is suffices that the closed fiber S/mS be Gorenstein and…

We discuss Matijevic-Roberts type theorem on strong $F$-regularity, $F$-purity, and Cohen-Macaulay $F$-injective (CMFI for short) property. Related to this problem, we also discuss the base change problem and the openness of loci of these…

We prove that deformation of F-injectivity holds for local rings $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ that admit secondary representations of $H^i_{\mathfrak{m}}(R)$ which are stable under the natural Frobenius action. As a consequence, F-injectivity deforms…

Let $X \overset{f}\longrightarrow S$ be a morphism of Noetherian schemes, with $S$ reduced. For any closed subscheme $Z$ of $X$ finite over $S$, let $j$ denote the open immersion $X\setminus Z \hookrightarrow X$. Koll\'ar asked whether for…

In this article, we generalize a previously defined set of axioms for a closure operation that induces balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules. While the original axioms were only defined in terms of finitely generated modules, these new ones…

Let $R\subset F$ be an extension of real closed fields and ${\mathcal S}(M,R)$ the ring of (continuous) semialgebraic functions on a semialgebraic set $M\subset R^n$. We prove that every $R$-homomorphism $\varphi:{\mathcal S}(M,R)\to F$ is…

The existence of an equidimensional morphism f with etale local sections from a regular algebraic space X to a locally noetherian normal algebraic space S of characteristic zero with excellent local rings implies that S is regular and f…

For pairs of integers (n,m) and (d,e) satisfying some nedesary conditions, we construct a local flat ring morphism of noetherian local rings u:A -->B such that dim(A)=n, depth(A)=d, dim(B)=m, depth(B)=e.

Let $(R, \frak m)$ denote a local Cohen-Macaulay ring and $I$ a non-nilpotent ideal of $R$. The purpose of this article is to investigate Faltings' finiteness dimension $f_I(R)$ and equidimensionalness of certain homomorphic image of $R$.…

A minimum depth d^I(S --> R) is assigned to a ring homomorphism S --> R and a R-R-bimodule I. The recent notion of depth of a subring d(S,R)in a paper by Boltje-Danz-Kuelshammer is recovered when I = R and S --> R is the inclusion mapping.…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity (not necessarily local) and $\frak a$ a proper ideal of $R$. We study the invariance of some classes of $\frak a$-relative Cohen-Macaulay modules under pure ring homomorphisms and ring…

Let $f\colon(R,\mathfrak{m})\rightarrow S$ be a local homomorphism of Noetherian local rings. Consider two endomorphisms \textit{of finite length} (i.e., with zero-dimensional closed fibers) $\varphi\colon R\rightarrow R$ and $\psi\colon…

We introduce a fundamental homological invariant, called Serre depth, which stratifies Serre's conditions in the same way that depth stratifies the Cohen-Macaulay property. We study the Serre depths of modules over arbitrary Noetherian…

Let R be a commutative ring and S be an R-algebra. It is well-known that if N is an injective R-module, then Hom(S,N) is an injective S-module. The converse is not true, not even if R is a commutative noetherian local ring and S is its…

Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…

In this paper we present a systematic study of the reflexivity properties of homologically finite complexes with respect to semidualizing complexes in the setting of nonlocal rings. One primary focus is the descent of these properties over…

We establish a criterion for the strong $F$-regularity of a (non-Gorenstein) Cohen-Macaulay reduced complete local ring of dimension at least $2$, containing a perfect field of prime characteristic $p$. We also describe an explicit…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $S \subseteq R$ be a multiplicative subset. We introduce and study the concept of $S$-purity based on the notion of $S$-strongly flat modules. The class of $S$-pure injective modules will be studied. We…
