Abstract

We prove that for a Frobenius extension, if a module over the extension ring is Gorenstein projective, then its underlying module over the the base ring is Gorenstein projective; the converse holds if the Frobenius extension is either left-Gorenstein or separable (e.g. the integral group ring extension ZZG\mathbb{Z}\subset \mathbb{Z}G). Moreover, for the Frobenius extension RA=R[x]/(x2)R\subset A=R[x]/(x^2), we show that: a graded AA-module is Gorenstein projective in GrMod(A)\mathrm{GrMod}(A), if and only if its ungraded AA-module is Gorenstein projective, if and only if its underlying RR-module is Gorenstein projective. It immediately follows that an RR-complex is Gorenstein projective if and only if all its items are Gorenstein projective RR-modules.
