We prove lifting results for DG modules that are akin to Auslander, Ding, and Solberg’s famous lifting results for modules. Introduction Convention. Throughout this paper, let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Hochster famously wrote that “life is really worth living” in a Cohen-Macaulay ring [7]. For instance, if R is Cohen-Macaulay and local with maximal regular sequence t, then R/(t) is ar...

We introduce the notion of E-depth graded modules over polynomial rings to measure depth certain Ext modules. First, we characterize with (sufficiently) large as those whose partial general initial submodules preserve Hilbert function local cohomology supported at irrelevant maximal ideal, extending a result Herzog and Sbarra on sequentially Cohen-Macaulay Second, describe cone tables sufficien...

In this paper, results known about the artinian and noetherian conditions for the Leavitt path algebras of graphs with finitely many vertices are extended to all row-finite graphs. In our first main result, necessary and sufficient conditions on a row-finite graph E are given so that the corresponding (not necessarily unital) Leavitt path K-algebra L(E) is semisimple. These are precisely the al...
