We describe new classes of noetherian local rings $R$ whose finitely generated modules $M$ have the property that $Tor_i^R(M,M)=0$ for $igg 0$ implies that $M$ has finite projective dimension, or $Ext^i_R(M,M)=0$ for $igg 0$ implies that $M$ has finite projective dimension or finite injective dimension.
Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring. We introduce the notion of colocalization functors with supports in arbitrary subsets of Spec R, which is a natural generalization of right derived functors of section functors with supports in specialization-closed subsets. We prove that the local duality theorem and the vanishing theorem of Grothendieck type hold for colocalization functors.
We study rings which have Noetherian cohomology under the action of a ring of cohomology operators. The main result is a criterion for a complex of modules over such a ring to have finite injective dimension. This criterion generalizes, by removing finiteness conditions, and unifies several previous results. In particular we show that for a module over a ring with Noetherian cohomology, if all higher self-extensions of the module vanish then it must have finite injective dimension. Examples of rings with Noetherian cohomology include commutative complete intersection rings and finite dimensional cocommutative Hopf algebras over a field.
Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We investigate $R$-modules which can be written as emph{finite} sums of {it {second}} $R$-submodules (we call them emph{second representable}). We provide sufficient conditions for an $R$-module $M$ to be have a (minimal) second presentation, in particular within the class of lifting modules. Moreover, we investigate the class of (emph{main}) emph{second attached prime ideals} related to a module with such a presentation.
We study five different types of the homology of a Lie algebra over a commutative ring which are naturally isomorphic over fields. We show that they are not isomorphic over commutative rings, even over $mathbb Z,$ and study connections between them. In particular, we show that they are naturally isomorphic in the case of a Lie algebra which is flat as a module. As an auxiliary result we prove that the Koszul complex of a module $M$ over a principal ideal domain that connects the exterior and the symmetric powers $0to Lambda^n Mto M otimes Lambda^{n-1} M to dots to S^{n-1}M otimes M to S^nMto 0 $ is purely acyclic.
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $M$ a non-zero $R$-module. We introduce the class of emph{pseudo strongly hollow submodules} (emph{PS-hollow submodules}, for short) of $M$. Inspired by the theory of modules with emph{secondary representations}, we investigate modules which can be written as emph{finite} sums of PS-hollow submodules. In particular, we provide existence and uniqueness theorems for the existence of emph{minimal} PS-hollow strongly representations of modules over Artinian rings.
