Let A be a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. We characterize the finite dimensional modules over A whose orbit closures are regular varieties.

Let $\Lambda$ be an artin algebra. We are going to consider full subcategories of $\mod\Lambda$ closed under finite direct sums and under submodules with infinitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable modules. The main result asserts…

We use geometric and cohomological methods to show that given a degree bound for membership in ideals of a fixed degree type in the polynomial ring P=k[x_0,..., x_d], one obtains a good generic degree bound for membership in the tight…

The concepts of differentiation and integration for matrices are known. As far as each matrix is differentiable, it is not clear a priori whether a given matrix is integrable or not. Recently some progress was obtained for diagonalizable…

Let R be an integral domain and I a nonzero ideal of R. A sub-ideal J of I is a t-reduction of I if (JI^{n})_{t}=(I^{n+1})_{t} for some positive integer n. An element x in R is t-integral over I if there is an equation x^{n} + a_{1}x^{n-1}…

Over a regular local ring of dimension two with maximal ideal m, we study the Buchsbaum-Rim multiplicity of a finitely generated module M of finite colength in a free module F. First, we investigate the colength of an m-primary ideal and…

We prove that the tight closure and the graded plus closure of a homogeneous ideal coincide for a two-dimensional N-graded domain of finite type over the algebraic closure of a finite field. This answers in this case a ``tantalizing…

Tight and essentially tight modules generalize weakly injective modules. Essential tightness requires embeddings to be essential. This restriction makes the two notions totally different. In this note, we investigate cases when those two…

We consider the ideal of inner $2$-minors $I_{\mathcal{P}}$ of a finite set of cells $\mathcal{P}$, which we call the cell ideal of $\mathcal{P}$. A nice interpretation for the height of an unmixed ideal $I_{\mathcal{P}}$, in terms of the…

A method is provided for computing an upper bound of the complexity of a module over a local ring, in terms of vanishing of certain cohomology modules. We then specialize to complete intersections, which are precisely the rings over which…

Let $S$ be a polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A numerical characterization of all possible extremal Betti numbers of any graded submodule of a finitely generated graded free $S$-module is given.

We consider extension of a closure system on a finite set S as a closure system on the same set S containing the given one as a sublattice. A closure system can be represented in different ways, e.g. by an implicational base or by the set…

The purpose of this note is to revisit the results of arXiv:1407.4324 from a slightly different perspective, outlining how, if the integral closures of a finite set of prime ideals abide the expected convexity patterns, then the existence…

This note gives a unifying characterization and exposition of strongly irreducible elements and their duals in lattices. The interest in the study of strong irreducibility stems from commutative ring theory, while the dual concept of strong…

In this note, we establish conditions under which the union of an increasing sequence of completely decomposable modules over domains are again completely decomposable. In our investigation, the condition of purity of modules is crucial. In…

Firstly, we give a partial solution to the isomorphism problem for uniserial modules of finite length with the help of the morphisms between these modules over an arbitrary ring. Later, under suitable assumptions on the lattice of the…

Let $B$ be the one-point extension algebra of $A$ by an $A$-module $M$. We proved that every ICE-closed subcategory in$\mod A$ can be extended to be some ICE-closed subcategories in$\mod B$.In the same way, every epibrick in $\mod A$ can be…

We investigate when the Rees algebra of an integrally closed $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in a regular local ring is a Cohen-Macaulay normal domain. While this property always holds in dimension two, it fails in general in higher…

A specialization semilattice is a join semilattice together with a coarser preorder $ \sqsubseteq $ satisfying an appropriate compatibility condition. If $X$ is a topological space, then $(\mathcal P(X), \cup, \sqsubseteq )$ is a…

We investigate homological properties of perfect algebras of prime characteristic. The principle is as follows: perfect algebras resolve the singularities. For example, we show any module over the ring of absolute integral closure has…
