Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring and let $C$ be a semidualizing $R$-module. In this paper, by using the classes $ \mathcal{P}_C $ and $ \mathcal{I}_C $, we extend the notions of perfect and coperfect modules introduced by D.Rees \cite{R} and…

If R is a commutative ring, we prove that every finitely generated module has a pure-composition series with indecomposable factors and any two such series are isomorphic if and only if R is a Bezout ring and a CF-ring.

Let $R$ be a ring and denote by $\mathcal{FM}$ the class of all flat and Mittag-Leffler left $R$-modules. In \cite{BazzoniStovicek2} it is proved that, if $R$ is countable, the orthogonal class of $\mathcal{FM}$ consists of all cotorsion…

Let S be a basic closed semi-algebraic set in R^n and P the corresponding preordering in R[X_1,...,X_n]. We examine for which polynomials f there exist identities f+\ep q \in P for all \ep>0. These are precisely the elements of the…

We give criteria for subcategories of a compactly generated algebraic triangulated category to be precovering or preenveloping. These criteria are formulated in terms of closure conditions involving products, coproducts, directed homotopy…

Let $(R,\my)$ be a noetherian local ring and let $M$ be an $R$-module such that $\bigcap\limits_{n\geq 1} \my^n M=0.$ Let $\hat{M}$ be the completion of $M$. We show that Ass$(\hat{M})=$ Koatt$(M)$ holds in the following three cases: if…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring with total quotient ring $K$. An $R$-module $M$ is called simple divisible, if $M$ is divisible $\neq 0$, but every proper submodule $0 \neq U \subsetneqq M$ is not divisible.…

A cohomological support, Supp_A(M), is defined for finitely generated modules M over an left noetherian ring R, with respect to a ring A of central cohomology operations on the derived category of R-modules. It is proved that if the…

Localisation is an important technique in ring theory and yields the construction of various rings of quotients. Colocalisation in comodule categories has been investigated by some authors where the colocalised coalgebra turned out to be a…

We introduce the new concept of silting modules. These modules generalise tilting modules over an arbitrary ring, as well as support $\tau$-tilting modules over a finite dimensional algebra recently introduced by Adachi, Iyama and Reiten.…

We consider hereditary Artin algebras over arbitrary fields and prove that there is a natural bijection between the Weyl groups and the sets of full additive cofinite submodule closed subcategories of the module categories. While Oppermann,…

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…

Yet another proof of the result asserting that a morphism of commutative rings is an effective descent morphism for modules if and only if it is pure is given. Moreover, it is shown that this result cannot be derived from Moerdijk's descent…

Let $R$ be a perfect ring and $T$ be an $R$-module. We study characterizations of sincere modules, sincere silting modules and tilting modules in terms of various vanishing conditions. It is proved that $T$ is sincere silting if and only if…

This paper contains a long summary of the basic properties of higher FR torsion. An attempt is made to simplify the constructions from my book Higher Franz-Reidemeister Torsion (IP/AMS Studies in Advanced Math 31). Some new basic theorems…

Given a commutative ring R (respectively a positively graded commutative ring $A=\ps_{j\geq 0}A_j$ which is finitely generated as an A_0-algebra), a bijection between the torsion classes of finite type in Mod R (respectively tensor torsion…

We study homological properties of a locally complete intersection ring by importing facts from homological algebra over exterior algebras. One application is showing that the thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a locally…

In this paper, we provide several new characterizations of the maximal right ring of quotients of a ring by using the relatively dense property. As a ring is embedded in its maximal right ring of quotients, we show that the endomorphism…

A topological space is called self-covering if it is a nontrivial cover of itself. We prove that, under mild assumptions, a closed self-covering manifold with an abelian fundamental group fibers over a torus in various senses. As a…

\emph{Proto-exact categories}, introduced by Dyckerhoff and Kapranov, are a generalization of Quillen exact categories which provide a framework for defining algebraic K-theory and Hall algebras in a \emph{non-additive} setting. This…
