We determine, up to isomorphism, the indecomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over certain complete one-dimensional local rings of finite Cohen-Macaulay type. We then investigate the direct sum relations of maximal Cohen-Macaulay…

A concrete description of all graded maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules of rank one and two over the affine cone of the simple node (a non-isolated singularity) is given. For this purpose we construct an alghoritm that provides extensions of…

The aim of this paper is threefold: first, to prove that the endomorphism ring associated to a pure subring of a regular local ring is a noncommutative crepant resolution if it is maximal Cohen-Macaulay; second, to see that in that…

We prove (the excellent case of) Schreyer's conjecture that a local ring with countable Cohen--Macaulay type has at most a one-dimensional singular locus. Furthermore we prove that the localization of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of…

The goal of this note is to record the following curious fact: let $(S,\n)$ be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic $p>0$ and dimension $d$. Let $L$ denote the quotient field of $S$ and $K=L(\omega)$ with $\omega^p\in…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We use the splitting of local cohomology to shed a new light on the structure of non-Cohen-Macaulay modules. Namely, we show…

We utilize recent results of Andr\'e and Gabber on the existence of weakly functorial integral perfectoid big Cohen-Macaulay (BCM) algebras to study singularities of local rings in mixed characteristic. In particular, we introduce a mixed…

In the case of finite groups, a separating algebra is a subalgebra of the ring of invariants which separates the orbits. Although separating algebras are often better behaved than the ring of invariants, we show that many of the criteria…

Let (R,m,k) be a one-dimensional analytically unramified local ring with minimal prime ideals P_1,...,P_s. Our ultimate goal is to study the direct-sum behavior of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over R. Such behavior is encoded by the…

Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I$ be monomial ideal of $R$. In this paper, we show that if $I$ is a generic monomial ideal, then $R/I$ is pretty clean if and only if $R/I$ is…

In this paper, we study maximal Cohen-Macaulay sheaves on symplectic singularities. These sheaves generate the singularity categories and thus measure how far a singularity is from being smooth. We lift maximal Cohen-Macaulay sheaves on a…

This is a survey article about properties of Cohen-Macaulay modules over surface singularities. We discuss various results on the Macaulayfication functor, reflexive modules over simple, quotient and minimally elliptic singularities,…

Notes of three talks given at the workshop 'Hilbert schemes, non-commutative algebra and the McKay correspondence' CIRM-Luminy (France) October 2003. If A is an order over a central normal affine variety X having a stability structure such…

Over a field of characteristic 0, every ring of invariants of a finite group is Cohen-Macaulay. This is not true for fields of positive characteristic. We consider permutation representations and their invariant rings over fields…

In this paper we completely classify all the special Cohen-Macaulay (=CM) modules corresponding to the exceptional curves in the dual graph of the minimal resolutions of all two dimensional quotient singularities. In every case we exhibit…

In this note we present a notion of fundamental scheme for Cohen- Macaulay, order 1, irreducible congruences of lines. We show that such a congruence is formed by the k-secant lines to its fundamental scheme for a number k that we call the…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and let $\fa$ be a proper ideal of $R$. A non-zero finitely generated $R$-module $M$ is called relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to $\fa$ if there is precisely one non vanishing local…

This paper shows that if $R$ is a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, then $R$-module $M$ is sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay if and only if the difference between Hilbert coefficients and arithmetic degrees for all…

The first part of this paper, written mainly for nonspecialists, is a short and partial survey about the construction and classification of nilpotent Cohen-Macaulay scheme structures on a scheme "less nilpotent"(e.g. a smooth variety) as…

Given a Cohen-Macaulay scheme of klt type $X$ and a resolution $\pi\colon Y\to X$, we show that $R^1\pi_*\omega_Y=0$. We deduce that if $\mathrm{dim}(X)=3$, then $X$ satisfies Grauert-Riemenschneider vanishing and therefore has rational…
