This paper generalize the idea of the authors in J. Pure Appl. Algebra 210 (2007) 437–445. Namely, we define and study a particular case of Gorenstein projective modules. We investigate some change of rings results for this new kind of modules. Examples over not necessarily Noetherian rings are given.

Let X be a codimension 1 subvariety of dimension > 1 of a variety of minimal degree Y . If X is subcanonical with Gorenstein canonical singularities admitting a crepant resolution, then X is Arithmetically Gorenstein and we characterise such subvarieties X of Y via apolarity as those whose apolar hypersurfaces are Fermat.

The so-called ’change-of-ring’ results are well-known expressions which present several connections between projective, injective and flat dimensions over the various base rings. In this note we extend these results to the Gorenstein dimensions over Cohen-Macaulay local rings.

Abstract We introduce the cohomological blowup of a graded Artinian Gorenstein algebra along surjective map, which we term BUG (blowup Gorenstein) for short. This is intended to translate an algebraic context cohomology ring projective manifold submanifold. show, among other things, that connected sum, it general fiber in flat family algebras, and preserves strong Lefschetz property. also show ...

We classify the smooth projective symmetric G-varieties with Picard number one (and G semisimple). Moreover we prove a criterion for the smoothness of the simple (normal) symmetric varieties whose closed orbit is complete. In particular we prove that, given a such variety X which is not exceptional, then X is smooth if and only if an appropriate toric variety contained in X is smooth. keywords:...

In this paper, we study the problem when a finitely generated torsionless module is projective. Let Λ be an Artinian local algebra with radical square zero. Then a finitely generated torsionless Λ-module M is projective if Ext Λ (M,M) = 0. For a commutative Artinian ring Λ, a finitely generated torsionless Λ-module M is projective if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) Ext Λ (M,Λ) = 0 f...
