It is proven that the weak dimension of each FP-injective module over a chain ring which is either Archimedean or not semicoherent is less or equal to 2. This implies that the projective dimension of any countably generated FP-injective module over an Archimedean chain ring is less or equal to 3. By [7, Theorem 1], for any module G over a commutative arithmetical ring R the weak dimension of G ...

We consider geometrical problems on Gorenstein hypersurface orbifolds of dimension n ≥ 4 through the theory of Hilbert scheme of group orbits.

We define and studyco-Noetherian dimension of rings for which the injective envelopeof simple modules have finite Krull-dimension. This  is a Moritainvariant dimension that measures how far the ring is from beingco-Noetherian. The co-Noetherian dimension of certain rings,including commutative rings, are determined. It is shown that the class ${mathcal W}_n$ of rings with co-Noetherian dimension...

We give equivalent and sufficient criteria for the automorphism group of a complete toric variety, respectively a Gorenstein toric Fano variety, to be reductive. In particular we show that the automorphism group of a Gorenstein toric Fano variety is reductive, if the barycenter of the associated reflexive polytope is zero. Furthermore a sharp bound on the dimension of the reductive automorphism...

We investigate the behavior of the test ideal of an excellent reduced ring of prime characteristic under base change. It is shown that if h : A ?! D is a smooth homomorphism, then A D = D , assuming that all residue elds of A at maximal ideals are perfect and that formation of the test ideal commutes with localization. It is also shown that if h : (A; m) ?! D is a nite at homomorphism of Gorens...

An SI-sequence is a finite sequence of positive integers which is symmetric, unimodal and satisfies a certain growth condition. These are known to correspond precisely to the possible Hilbert functions of Artinian Gorenstein algebras with the Weak Lefschetz Property, a property shared by most Artinian Gorenstein algebras. Starting with an arbitrary SI-sequence, we construct a reduced, arithmeti...

We present an explicit method to produce upper bounds for the dimension of the moduli spaces of complete integral Gorenstein curves with prescribed symmetric Weierstrass semigroups.

Following the well-established terminology in commutative algebra, any (not necessarily commutative) finite-dimensional local algebra A $A$ with radical J $J$ will be said to short provided 3 = 0 $J^3 0$ . As case, we show: If a has an indecomposable non-projective Gorenstein-projective module M $M$ , then either is self-injective (so that all modules are Gorenstein-projective) and then, of cou...
