In this paper, we discuss some necessary and sufficient conditions for a curve to be arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, in terms of its general hyperplane section. We obtain a characterization of the degree matrices that can occur for points in the plane that are the general plane section of a non arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay curve of P. We prove that almost all the degree matrices with positive s...

In this paper we use "ring changed'' Gorenstein homologicaldimensions to define Cohen-Macaulay injective, projective and flatdimensions. For doing this we use the amalgamated duplication of thebase ring with semi-dualizing ideals. Among other results, we prove that finiteness of these new dimensions characterizes Cohen-Macaulay rings with dualizing ideals.

Björner and Wachs generalized the definition of shellability by dropping the assumption of purity; they also introduced the h-triangle, a doubly-indexed generalization of the h-vector which is combinatorially significant for nonpure shellable complexes. Stanley subsequently defined a nonpure simplicial complex to be sequentially Cohen-Macaulay if it satisfies algebraic conditions that generaliz...

We study a variety for graded maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules, which was introduced by Dao and Shipman. The main result of this paper asserts that there are only finite number isomorphism classes modules with fixed Hilbert series over algebras countable representation type.

One of the first remarkable results in representation theory artin algebras, due to Auslander and Ringel-Tachikawa, is characterisation when an algebra representation-finite. In this paper, we investigate aspects representation-finiteness general context exact categories sense Quillen. framework, introduce “big objects” prove Auslander-type “splitting-big-objects” theorem. Our approach generali...

We give several characterizations for the linearity property for a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over a local or graded ring, as well as proofs of existence in some new cases. In particular, we prove that the existence of such modules is preserved when taking Segre products, as well as when passing to Veronese subrings in low dimensions. The former result even yields new results on the existenc...
