The linearity defect is a measure for the non-linearity of minimal free resolutions of modules over noetherian local rings. A tantalizing open question due to Herzog and Iyengar asks whether a noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is…
A finitely generated module $M$ over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ is called an $I$-Cohen Macaulay module, if \[ \grade(I,M) + \dim(M/IM)= \dim(M), \] where $I$ is a proper ideal of $R$. The aim of this paper is to study the structure…
In this paper, we study the Koszul property of the homogeneous coordinate ring of a generic collection of lines in $\mathbb{P}^n$ and the homogeneous coordinate ring of a collection of lines in general linear position in $\mathbb{P}^n.$ We…
Numerical invariants of a minimal free resolution of a module $M$ over a regular local ring $(R,\n)$ can be studied by taking advantage of the rich literature on the graded case. The key is to fix suitable $\n$-stable filtrations ${\mathbb…
Let $R$ be a standard graded algebra over an $F$-finite field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $\phi:R\to R$ be the Frobenius endomorphism. For each finitely generated graded $R$-module $M$, let ${}^{\phi}\!M$ be the abelian group $M$ with…
We develop the basic constructions of homological algebra in the (appropriately defined) unbounded derived categories of modules over algebras over coalgebras over noncommutative rings (which we call semialgebras over corings). We define…
It is proved that the sum of the Loewy lengths of the homology modules of a finite free complex F over a local ring R is bounded below by a number depending only on R. This result uncovers, in the structure of modules of finite projective…
There is a well known link from the first topic in the title to the third one. In this paper we thread that link through the second topic. The central result is a criterion for the tensor nilpotence of morphisms of perfect complexes over…
Let $S$ denote the graded polynomial ring $\C[x_1,...,x_m]$. We interpret a chain complex of free $S$-modules having finite length homology modules as an $S^1$-equivariant map $\C^m\sm\{0\} \to X$, where $X$ is a moduli space of exact…
Let R be a noetherian ring which is a finite module over its centre Z(R). This paper studies the consequences for R of the hypothesis that it is a maximal Cohen Macaulay Z(R)-module. Old results are reviewed and a number of new results are…
Let $(R,\mathfrak m, \mathsf k)$ be a complete intersection local ring, $K$ be the Koszul complex on a minimal set of generators of $\mathfrak m$, and $A=H(K)$ be its homology algebra. We establish exact sequences involving direct sums of…
We introduce a notion of Koszul A-infinity algebra that generalizes Priddy's notion of a Koszul algebra and we use it to construct small A-infinity algebra models for Hochschild cochains. As an application, this yields new techniques for…
Consider the general linear group $G=GL_{n}(K)$ defined over an infinite field $K$ of positive characteristic $p$. We denote by $\Delta(\lambda)$ the Weyl module of $G$ which corresponds to a partition $\lambda$. Let $\lambda, \mu $ be…
Let $R$ be any noetherian local ring with residue field $k$, and $A$ the homology of the Koszul complex on a minimal set of generators of the maximal ideal of $R$. In this paper, we show that a minimal free resolution of $k$ over $R$ can be…
We prove an equivalent condition for the existence of a link between prime ideals in terms of the structure of a certain cohomology module. We use this formulation to answer an open question regarding the nature of module extensions over…
This work concerns finite free complexes over commutative noetherian rings, in particular over group algebras of elementary abelian groups. The main contribution is the construction of complexes such that the total rank of their underlying…
Let $R$ be a noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ such that $\dim R/\fa=1$ and $M$ a finite $R$--module. We will study cofiniteness and some other properties of the local cohomology modules $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M)$. For an arbitrary ideal $\fa$…
Differential modules are natural generalizations of complexes. In this paper, we study differential modules with complete intersection homology, comparing and contrasting the theory of these differential modules with that of the Koszul…
This work concerns the linearity defect of a module $M$ over a noetherian local ring $R$, introduced by Herzog and Iyengar in 2005, and denoted by $\text{ld}_R M$. Roughly speaking, $\text{ld}_R M$ is the homological degree beyond which the…
Let $(R,\m)$ be a Noetherian local ring. Consider the notion of homological dimension of a module, denoted H-dim, for H= Reg, CI, CI$_*$, G, G$^*$ or CM. We prove that, if for a finite $R$-module $M$ of positive depth, $\Hd_R({\m}^iM)$ is…
