Abstract: | Let be a commutative Noetherian ring, and let be an -module. In earlier papers by Bass (1963) and Roberts (1980) the Bass numbers were defined for all primes and all integers by use of the minimal injective resolution of . It is well known that . On the other hand, if is finitely generated, the Betti numbers are defined by the minimal free resolution of over the local ring . In an earlier paper of the second author (1995), using the flat covers of modules, the invariants were defined by the minimal flat resolution of over Gorenstein rings. The invariants were shown to be somehow dual to the Bass numbers. In this paper, we use homologies to compute these invariants and show that for any cotorsion module . Comparing this with the computation of the Bass numbers, we see that is replaced by and the localization is replaced by (which was called the colocalization of at the prime ideal by Melkersson and Schenzel). |
