For any non-zero finite module M of finite projective dimension over a noetherian local ring R with maximal ideal m and residue field k, it is proved that the natural map Ext_R(k,M)-->Ext_R(k,M/mM) is non-zero when R is regular and is zero otherwise. A noteworthy aspect of the proof is the use of stable cohomology. Applications include computations of Bass series over certain local rings.
We develop splitting techniques to study Lyubeznik numbers of cover ideals of graphs which allow us to describe them for large families of graphs including forests, cycles, wheels and cactus graphs. More generally we are able to compute all the Bass numbers and the shape of the injective resolution of local cohomology modules by considering the connected components of the corresponding subgraphs. Indeed our method gives us a very simple criterion for the vanishing of these local cohomology modules in terms of the connected components.
Gorenstein injective dimension, Bass formula and Gorenstein rings
设$(R,\frak m, k)$是Noether局部环.众所周知，$R$是正则的当且仅当$k$的内射维数是有限的。本文证明了$R$是Gorenstein当且仅当$k$的Gorenstein内射维数是有限的.另一方面，对有限Gorenstein内射维数的有限生成模证明了Bass公式的一个推广形式.它还改进了Christensen的广义Bass公式（cf.“Gorenstein dimensions”，数学讲义第1747卷，Springer-Verlag，柏林，2000年）。
It is known that the numerical invariants Betti numbers and Bass numbers are worthwhile tools for decoding a large amount of information about modules over commutative rings. We highlight this fact, further, by establishing some criteria for certain semidualizing complexes via their Betti and Bass numbers. Two distinguished types of semidualizing complexes are the shifts of the underlying rings and dualizing complexes. Let $C$ be a semidualizing complex for an analytically irreducible local ring $R$ and set $n:=\sup C$ and $d:=\dim_RC$. We show that $C$ is quasi-isomorphic to a shift of $R$ if…
We study direct-sum decompositions of torsion-free, finitely generated modules over a (commutative) Bass ring $R$ through the factorization theory of the corresponding monoid $T(R)$. Results of Levy-Wiegand and Levy-Odenthal together with a study of the local case yield an explicit description of $T(R)$. The monoid is typically neither factorial nor cancellative. Nevertheless, we construct a transfer homomorphism to a monoid of graph agglomerations--a natural class of monoids serving as combinatorial models for the factorization theory of $T(R)$. As a consequence, the monoid $T(R)$ is transfer…
Let $R \to S$ be a local ring homomorphism and $N$ a finitely generated $S$-module. We prove that if the Gorenstein injective dimension of $N$ over $R$ is finite, then it equals the depth of $R$.
Let $(A, \m, k)$ be a Gorenstein local ring of dimension $ d\geq 1.$ Let $I$ be an ideal of $A$ with $\htt(I) \geq d-1.$ We prove that the numerical function \[ n \mapsto \ell(\ext_A^i(k, A/I^{n+1}))\] is given by a polynomial of degree $d-1 $ in the case when $ i \geq d+1 $ and $\curv(I^n) > 1$ for all $n \geq 1.$ We prove a similar result for the numerical function \[ n \mapsto \ell(\Tor_i^A(k, A/I^{n+1}))\] under the assumption that $A$ is a \CM ~ local ring. \noindent We note that there are many examples of ideals satisfying the condition $\curv(I^n) > 1,$ for all $ n \geq 1.$ We also cons…
We study the question if projective modules over formal Laurent series rings are extended. We relate this question to the Bass-Quillen conjecture for commutative regular local rings and to the Hermite ring conjecture for all commutative local rings. Using our result about projective modules over formal Laurent series rings, we prove a reduction step for the Hermite ring conjecture. We show that the Hermite ring conjecture holds for all commutative local rings if and only if it holds for complete intersection rings which are also unique factorization domains.
Graded skew-commutative rings occur often in practice. Here are two examples: 1) The cohomology ring of a compact three-dimensional manifold. 2) The cohomology ring of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement (the Orlik-Solomon algebra). We present some applications of the homological theory of these graded skew-commutative rings. In particular we find compact oriented 3-manifolds without boundary for which the Hilbert series of the Yoneda Ext-algebra of the cohomology ring of the fundamental group is an explicit transcendental function. This is only possible for large first Betti numbers of…
We give a combinatorial description of local cohomology modules of a graded module over a semigroup ring, with support at the graded maximal ideal. This combinatorial framework yields Hochster-type formulas for the Hilbert series of such local cohomology modules in terms of the homology of finitely many polyhedral cell complexes. A Cohen--Macaulay criterion immediately follows. We also provide an alternative proof of a result of [18] characterizing Cohen--Macaulay affine semigroup rings.
