Cotilting modules with finite left perpendicular categories

We characterize a cotilting module T such that the left perpendicular category ⊥ T is of finite type.     

Multiplication Modules and a Theorem of P. F. Smith

P. F. Smith [7, Theorem 8] gave sufficient conditions on a finite set of modules for their sum and intersection to be multiplication modules. We give sufficient conditions on an arbitrary set of multiplication modules for the intersection to be a multiplication module. We generalize Smith"s theorem, and we prove conditions on sums and intersections of sets of modules sufficient for them to be multiplication modules. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

On multiplicities of simple subquotients in generalized Verma modules

We reduce the problem on multiplicities of simple subquotients in an -stratified generalized Verma module to the analogous problem for classical Verma modules.     

Associated primes of graded components of local cohomology modules

The -th local cohomology module of a finitely generated graded module over a standard positively graded commutative Noetherian ring , with respect to the irrelevant ideal , is itself graded; all its graded components are finitely generated modules over , the component of of degree . It is known that the -th component of this local cohomology module is zero for all > 0$">. This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of as .

The smallest for which such study is interesting is the finiteness dimension of relative to , defined as the least integer for which is not finitely generated. Brodmann and Hellus have shown that is constant for all (that is, in their terminology, is asymptotically stable for ). The first main aim of this paper is to identify the ultimate constant value (under the mild assumption that is a homomorphic image of a regular ring): our answer is precisely the set of contractions to of certain relevant primes of whose existence is confirmed by Grothendieck's Finiteness Theorem for local cohomology.

Brodmann and Hellus raised various questions about such asymptotic behaviour when f$">. They noted that Singh's study of a particular example (in which ) shows that need not be asymptotically stable for . The second main aim of this paper is to determine, for Singh's example, quite precisely for every integer , and, thereby, answer one of the questions raised by Brodmann and Hellus.

En">Characters and Composition Factor Multiplicities for the Lie Superalgebra $${\mathfrak{g}}{\mathfrak{l}}$$ ( m / n )

The multiplicities a of simple modules L in the composition series of Kac modules V lambda for the Lie superalgebra (m/n ) were described by Serganova, leading to her solution of the character problem for (m/n ). In Serganova's algorithm all with nonzero a are determined for a given this algorithm, turns out to be rather complicated. In this Letter, a simple rule is conjectured to find all nonzero a for any given weight . In particular, we claim that for an r-fold atypical weight there are 2r distinct weights such that a = 1, and a = 0 for all other weights . Some related properties on the multiplicities a are proved, and arguments in favour of our main conjecture are given. Finally, an extension of the conjecture describing the inverse of the matrix of Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials is discussed.     

Finite Group Schemes over Bases with Low Ramification

Let A be a complete characteristic (0,p) discrete valuation ring with absolute ramification degree e and a perfect residue field. We are interested in studying the category FF _A' of finite flat commutative group schemes over A withp-power order. When e= 1, Fontaine formulated the purely linear algebra notion of a finite Honda system over A and constructed an anti-equivalence of categories betweenineFF _A'> and the category of finite Honda systems over A when p> 2. We generalize this theory to the case e – 1.     

⊕-Cofinitely Supplemented Modules

Let R be a ring and M a right R-module. M is called -cofinitely supplemented if every submodule N of M with M/N finitely generated has a supplement that is a direct summand of M. In this paper various properties of the -cofinitely supplemented modules are given. It is shown that (1) Arbitrary direct sum of -cofinitely supplemented modules is -cofinitely supplemented. (2) A ring R is semiperfect if and only if every free R-module is -cofinitely supplemented. In addition, if M has the summand sum property, then M is -cofinitely supplemented iff every maximal submodule has a supplement that is a direct summand of M.     

Generalized Smash Products

In this paper．we study the ring #(D．B)and obtain two very interesting results. First we prove in Theorem 3 that the category of rational left BU-modules is equivalent to both the category of #-rational left modules and the category of all(B．D)-Hopf modules BM^D．Cai and Chen have proved this result in the case B=D=A．Secondly they have proved that if A has a nonzero left integral then A#A^*rat is a dense subring of Endk(A)．We prove that #(A,A) is a dense subring of Endk(Q),where Q is a certain subspace of #(A．A)under the condition that the antipode is bijective(see Theorem18).This condition is weaker than the condition that A has a nonzero integral.It is well known the antipode is bijective in case A has a nonzero integral．Furthermore if A has nonzero left integral,Q can be chosen to be A(see Corollary 19)and #(A,A)is both left and right primitive.Thus A#A^*rat #(A,A)-Endk(A)．Moreover we prove that the left singular ideal of the ring #(A,A)is zero．A corollary of this is a criterion for A with nonzero left integral to be finite-dimensional,namely the ring #(A,A)has a finite uniform dimension．
