Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Assume that $R$ has a pair $\{x,y\}$ of exact zerodivisors such that $\dim R/(x,y)\ge2$ and all totally reflexive $R/(x)$-modules are free. We show that the first and second Brauer--Thrall…

A few years ago, Huneke and Leuschke proved a theorem which solved a conjecture of Schreyer. It asserts that an excellent Cohen-Macaulay local ring of countable Cohen-Macaulay type which is complete or has uncountable residue field has at…

We define, via Gorenstein homomorphisms, a class of local rings over which there exist non-trivial totally reflexive modules. We also provide a general construction of such rings, which indicates their abundance.

Starting from the notion of totally reflexive modules, we survey the theory of Gorenstein homological dimensions for modules over commutative rings. The account includes the theory's connections with relative homological algebra and with…

Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring and consider the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable totally reflexive R-modules. We prove that if this set is finite, then either it has exactly one element, represented by the rank 1…

Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring that is not Gorenstein. It is known that the category of totally reflexive modules over R is representation infinite, provided that it contains a non-free module. The main goal of this paper is…

Motivated by a recent result of Yoshino, and the work of Bergh on reducible complexity, we introduce reducing versions of invariants of finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian local rings. Our main result considers modules…

We consider local non-Gorenstein rings of the form $(S_i,\mathfrak{n}_i)=k[X, Y_1, \ldots ,Y_i]/\left(X^2, (Y_1, \ldots, Y_i)^2\right), $ where $i\geq 2.$ We show that every totally reflexive $S_i$-module has a presentation matrix of the…

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 local Noetherian ring of depth at least two. We prove that there are indecomposable $R$-modules which are free on the punctured spectrum of constant, arbitrarily large, rank.

Let A be a local ring which admits an exact pair x,y of zero divisors as defined by Henriques and Sega. Assuming that this pair is regular and that there exists a regular element on the A-module A/(x,y), we explicitly construct an infinite…

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…

We provide a certain direct-sum decomposition of reflexive modules over (one-dimensional) Arf local rings. We also see the equivalence of three notions, say, integrally closed ideals, trace ideals, and reflexive modules of rank one (i.e.,…

This paper studies infinite acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules over a commutative noetherian local ring $(R,m)$ with $m^3=0$. Conclusive results are obtained on the growth of the ranks of the modules in acyclic complexes,…

A commutative noetherian ring with a dualizing complex is Gorenstein if and only if every acyclic complex of injective modules is totally acyclic. We extend this characterization, which is due to Iyengar and Krause, to arbitrary commutative…

We introduce the notion of totally reflexive extension of rings. It unifies Gorenstein orders and Frobenius extensions. We prove that for a totally reflexive extension, a module over the extension ring is totally reflexive if and only if…

In the present paper we investigate reflexive modules over the endomorphism algebras of reflexive trace ideals in a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring. The main theorem generalizes both of the results of S. Goto, N. Matsuoka, and T.…

In this paper, we consider finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian rings whose tensor products have finite projective dimension. We construct examples of modules of infinite projective dimension (and also of infinite…

We show that the conditions defining total reflexivity for modules are independent. In particular, we construct a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$ and a reflexive $R$-module $M$ such that $\Ext^i_R(M,R)=0$ for all $i>0$, but…

It is proved that given any prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of height at least 2 in a countable commutative noetherian ring $A$, there are uncountably many more dualizable objects in the $\mathfrak{p}$-local $\mathfrak{p}$-torsion stratum of the…
