let r be a right gf-closed ring with finite left and right gorenstein global dimension. we prove that if i is an ideal of r such that r/i is a semi-simple ring, then the gorensntein flat dimensnion of r/i as a right r-module and the gorensntein injective dimensnnion of r/i as a left r-module are identical. in particular, we show that for a simple module s over a commutative gorensntein ring r, ...

We prove a conjecture of A. S. Buch concerning the structure constants of the Grothendieck ring of a flag variety with respect to its basis of Schubert structure sheaves. For this, we show that the coefficients in this basis of the structure sheaf of any subvariety with rational singularities, have alternating signs. Equivalently, the class of the dualizing sheaf of such a subvariety is a nonne...

We show that every semi-artinian module which is contained in a direct sum of finitely presented modules in $si[M]$, is weakly co-semisimple if and only if it is regular in $si[M]$. As a consequence, we observe that every semi-artinian ring is regular in the sense of von Neumann if and only if its simple modules are $FP$-injective.

let $x$ be a sufficiently nice scheme. we survey some recent progress on dualizing complexes. it turns out that a complex in $kinj x$ is dualizing if and only if tensor product with it induces an equivalence of categories from murfet's new category $kmpr x$ to the category $kinj x$. in these terms, it becomes interesting to wonder how to glue such equivalences.

We study the arithmetic self-intersection number of the dualizing sheaf on arithmetic surfaces with respect to morphisms of a particular kind. We obtain upper bounds for the arithmetic self-intersection number of the dualizing sheaf on minimal regular models of the modular curves associated with congruence subgroups Γ0(N) with square free level, as well as for the modular curves X(N) and the Fe...

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring. We give criteria for flatness of R-modules in terms of associated primes and torsion-freeness of certain tensor products. This allows us to develop a criterion for regularity if R has characteristic p, or more generally if it has a locally contracting endomorphism. Dualizing, we give criteria for injectivity of R-modules in terms of coassociated primes an...
