It is shown that every commutative local ring of bounded module type is an almost maximal valuation ring. We say that an associative commutative unitary ring R is of bounded module type if there exists a positive integer n such that every finitely generated R-module is a direct sum of submodules generated by at most n elements. For instance, every Dedekind domain has bounded module type with bo...

Nakayama (Ann. of Math. 42, 1941) showed that over an artinian serial ring every module is a direct sum of uniserial modules. Hence artinian serial rings have the property that each right (left) ideal is a finite direct sum of quasi-injective right (left) ideals. A ring with the property that each right (left) ideal is a finite direct sum of quasi-injective right (left) ideals will be called a ...

We prove versions of results of Foxby and Holm about modules of finite (Gorenstein) injective dimension and finite (Gorenstein) projective dimension with respect to a semidualizing module. We also verify two special cases of a question of Takahashi and White.

Let $R$ be a ring, $n$ an non-negative integer and $d$ positive or $\infty$. A right $R$-module $M$ is called \emph{$(n,d)^*$-projective} if ${\rm Ext}^1_R(M, C)=0$ for every $n$-copresented $C$ of injective dimension $\leq d$; ring \emph{right $(n,d)$-cocoherent} with $id(C)\leq d$ $(n+1)$-copresented; $(n,d)$-cosemihereditary} whenever $0\rightarrow C\rightarrow E\rightarrow A\rightarrow 0$ e...

Let (R,m) be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We establish some bounds for the sequence of Bass numbers and their dual for a finitely generated R-module. Introduction Throughout this paper, (R,m, k) is a non-trivial commutative Noetherian local ring with unique maximal ideal m and residue field k. Several authors have obtained results on the growth of the sequence of Betti numbers {βn(k)} (...

If R is a ring of coefficients and G a finite group, then a flat RG-module which is projective as an R-module is necessarily projective as an RG-module. More generally, if H is a subgroup of finite index in an arbitrary group Γ, then a flat RΓmodule which is projective as an RH-module is necessarily projective as an RΓ-module. This follows from a generalization of the first theorem to modules o...

Let $mathcal{X}$ be a class of $R$-modules‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we investigate ;$mathcal{X}$-injective (projective) and DG-$mathcal{X}$-injective (projective) complexes which are generalizations of injective (projective) and DG-injecti‎‎ve (projective) complexes‎. ‎We prove that some known results can be extended to the class of ;$mathcal{X}$-injective (projective) and DG-$mathcal{X}$-injective ...
