A Generalization of Auslander's Last Theorem

Before his death, Auslander announced that every finitely generated module over a local Gorenstein ring has a minimal Cohen–Macaulay approximation. Yoshimo extended Auslander's result to local Cohen–Macaulay rings admitting a dualizing module.Over a local Gorenstein ring the finitely generated maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules are the finitely generated Gorenstein projective modules so in fact Auslander's theorem says finitely generated modules over such rings have Gorenstein projective covers. We extend Auslander's theorem by proving that over a local Cohen–Macaulay ring admitting a dualizing module all finitely generated modules of finite G-dimension (in Auslander's sense) have a Gorenstein projective cover. Since all finitely generated modules over a Gorenstein ring have finite G-dimension, we recover Auslander's theorem when R is Gorenstein.     

Finitely presented and coherent ordered modules and rings

We extend the usual definition of coherence, for modules over rings, to partially ordered right modules over a large class of partially ordered rings, called po-rings. In this situation, coherence is equivalent to saying that solution sets of finite systems of inequalities are finitely generated semimodules. Coherence for ordered rings and modules, which we call po-coherence, has the following features:.

(i) Every subring of Q, and every totally ordered division ring, is po-coherent.

(ii) For a partially ordered right module Aover a po-coherent poring R Ais po-coherent if and only if Ais a finitely presented .R-module and A ⁺is a finitely generated R ⁺-semimodule.

(iii) Every finitely po-presented partially ordered right module over a right po-coherent po-ring is po-coherent.

(iv) Every finitely po-presented abelian lattice-ordered group is po-coherent.     

The Krull-Schmidt Theorem in the Case Two

We study what happens if, in the Krull-Schmidt Theorem, instead of considering modules whose endomorphism rings have one maximal ideal, we consider modules whose endomorphism rings have two maximal ideals. If a ring has exactly two maximal right ideals, then the two maximal right ideals are necessarily two-sided. We call such a ring of type 2. The behavior of direct sums of finitely many modules whose endomorphism rings have type 2 is completely described by a graph whose connected components are either complete graphs or complete bipartite graphs. The vertices of the graphs are ideals in a suitable full subcategory of Mod-R. The edges are isomorphism classes of modules. The complete bipartite graphs give rise to a behavior described by a Weak Krull-Schmidt Theorem. Such a behavior had been previously studied for the classes of uniserial modules, biuniform modules, cyclically presented modules over a local ring, kernels of morphisms between indecomposable injective modules, and couniformly presented modules. All these modules have endomorphism rings that are either local or of type 2. Here we present a general theory that includes all these cases.     

Another Gorenstein analogue of flat modules

A right R-module M is called glat if any homomorphism from any finitely presented right R-module to M factors through a finitely presented Gorenstein projective right R-module. The concept of glat modules may be viewed as another Gorenstein analogue of flat modules. We first prove that the class of glat right R-modules is closed under direct sums, direct limits, pure quotients and pure submodules for arbitrary ring R. Then we obtain that a right R-module M is glat if and only if M is a direct limit of finitely presented Gorenstein projective right R-modules. In addition, we explore the relationships between glat modules and Gorenstein flat (Gorenstein projective) modules. Finally we investigate the existence of preenvelopes and precovers by glat and finitely presented Gorenstein projective modules.     

Pure-Projective Modules

The question is addressed of when all pure-projective modulesare direct sums of finitely presented modules. It is provedthat this is the case over hereditary noetherian rings. Partialresults are obtained for uniserial rings. Some of the methodsare model-theoretic, and the techniques developed using thesemay be of interest in their own right.     

On the exactness of flat resolvents

Let R be a left coherent ring, FP — idRR the FP — injective dimension of RR and wD(R) the weak global dimension of R. It is shown that 1) FP -idRR < n ( n > 0) if and only if every flat resolvent 0 → M → F° → F¹... of a finitely presented right R—module M is exact at F'(i > n?1) if and only if every nth F -cosyzygy of a finitely presented right R — module has a flat preenvelope which is a monomorphism; 2) wD(R) < n (n > 1) if and only if every (n?l)th F-cosyzygy of a finitely presented right R—module has a flat preenvelope which is an epimorphism; 3) wD(R) 0) if and only if every nth F — cosyzygy of a finitely presented right R — module is flat. In particular, left FC rings and left semihereditary rings are characterized

Mod-Retractable Rings

A right module M over a ring R is said to be retractable if Hom _R (M, N) ≠ 0 for each nonzero submodule N of M. We show that M ? _R RG is a retractable RG-module if and only if M _R is retractable for every finite group G. The ring R is (finitely) mod-retractable if every (finitely generated) right R-module is retractable. Some comparisons between max rings, semiartinian rings, perfect rings, noetherian rings, nonsingular rings, and mod-retractable rings are investigated. In particular, we prove ring-theoretical criteria of right mod-retractability for classes of all commutative, left perfect, and right noetherian rings.     

Semiprime rings with bounded indices of nilpotent elements

This paper deals with the structure of semiprime rings for which the indices of the nilpotent elements are bounded. It is shown that the complete right ring of quotients of such a ring is a regular, right self-injective ring in which each finitely generated ideal is generated by a central idempotent. The indices of the nilpotent elements of the factor ring of such a ring with respect to a minimal prime ideal do not exceed the upper bound of the indices of the nilpotent elements of the original ring. A criterion for the regularity (in the sense of von Neumann) of such rings is obtained. Also investigated are right completely idempotent rings with bounded indices of nilpotent elements (it is shown, in particular, that each nonzero ideal of such a ring contains a nonzero central idempotent).Translated from Trudy Seminara imeni I.

On Serial Noetherian Rings

It is well known that every serial Noetherian ring satisfies the restricted minimum condition. In particular, following Warfield (1975 Warfield , R. B. ( 1975 ). Serial rings and finitely presented modules . J. Algebra 37 : 187 – 222 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), such a ring is a direct sum of an Artinian ring and hereditary prime rings. The aim of this note is to show that every serial ring having the restricted minimum condition is Noetherian.     

Generalizations of the Nikodym boundedness and Vitali–Hahn–Saks theorems

Generalizations of the Nikodym boundedness and Vitali–Hahn–Saks theorems for scalar-valued measures on rings of sets that are in general not σ-rings are presented. As a consequence, the rings of subsets of N with density zero and uniform density zero are shown to have the Nikodym property. In addition, vector measure generalizations of the Vitali–Hahn–Saks theorem are given.

On finitely embedded rings

A result of Ginn and Moss asserts that a left and right noetherian ring with essential right socle is left and right artinian. There are examples of right finitely embedded rings with ACC on left and right annihilators which are not artinian. Motivated by this, it was shown by Faith that a commutative, finitely embedded ring with ACC on annihilators (and square-free socle) is artinian (quasi-Frobenius). A ring R is called right minsymmetric if, whenever k R is a simple right ideal of R, then R k is also simple. In this paper we show that a right noetherian right minsymmetric ring with essential right socle is right artinian. As a consequence we show that a ring is quasi-Frobenius if and only if it is a right and left mininjective, right finitely embedded ring with ACC on right annihilators. This extends the known work in the artinian case, and also extends Faith's result to the non-commutative case.     

McCoy Rings Relative to a Monoid

For a monoid M, we introduce M-McCoy rings, which are a generalization of McCoy rings and M-Armendariz rings; and investigate their properties. We first show that all reversible rings are right M-McCoy, where M is a u.p.-monoid. We also show that all right duo rings are right M-McCoy, where M is a strictly totally ordered monoid. Then we show that semicommutative rings and 2-primal rings do have a property close to the M-McCoy condition. Moreover, it is shown that a finitely generated Abelian group G is torsion free if and only if there exists a ring R such that R is G-McCoy. Consequently, several known results on right McCoy rings are extended to a general setting.     

Weakly left localizable rings

A new class of rings, the class of weakly left localizable rings, is introduced. A ring R is called weakly left localizable if each non-nilpotent element of R is invertible in some left localization S^?1R of the ring R. Explicit criteria are given for a ring to be a weakly left localizable ring provided the ring has only finitely many maximal left denominator sets (eg, this is the case for all left Noetherian rings). It is proved that a ring with finitely many maximal left denominator sets that satisfies some natural conditions is a weakly left localizable ring iff its left quotient ring is a direct product of finitely many local rings such that their radicals are nil ideals.     

Actions of finite groups on Amitsur rings

Action of finite groups on Amitsur rings is considered. We prove that for an Amitsur ring without |G|-torsion, the ring of invariants is approximated by finitely many Amitsur rings. It is also shown that the class of Amitsur rings is invariant under Montgomery equivalence.Translated fromAlgebra i Logika, Vol. 34, No. 5, pp. 514–522, September-October, 1995.Supported by the Russian Foundation for Fundamental Research (RFFR), grant No. 93-01-16171.     

Tilting via torsion pairs and almost hereditary noetherian rings

We generalize the tilting process by Happel, Reiten and Smalø to the setting of finitely presented modules over right coherent rings. Moreover, we extend the characterization of quasi-tilted artin algebras as the almost hereditary ones to all right noetherian rings.

For a right Noetherian serial ring R that is not Artinian, it is proved that the Krull dimension of the category of finitely generated right R-modules is equal to one. Bibliography: 17titles.Translated fromZapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 236, 1997, pp. 73–86.
