Gorenstein projective dimension with respect to a semidualizing module

Abstract

We introduce and investigate the notion of $\gc$-projective modules over (possibly non-noetherian) commutative rings, where $C$ is a semidualizing module. This extends Holm and Jørgensen's notion of $C$-Gorenstein projective modules to the non-noetherian setting and generalizes projective and Gorenstein projective modules within this setting. We then study the resulting modules of finite $\gc$-projective dimension, showing in particular that they admit $\gc$-projective approximations, a generalization of the maximal Cohen-Macaulay approximations of Auslander and Buchweitz. Over a local (noetherian) ring, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a $G_C$-approximation to be minimal.

Buchsbaumness, Macaulayfication and Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of monomial curves

Projective monomial curves are associated with rings generated by monomials of equal degree in two variables. In this paper, we give an infinite class of non-smooth, non Cohen-Macaulay $k$-Buchsbaum projective monomial curves for any $k\geq 1$ and find the monomial generators for the respective Macaulayfication. More generally, we demonstrate a method to find the Macaulayfication of a $k$-Buchsbaum monomial curve for any $k\geq 1$. We also discuss Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of certain curves in terms of $k$-Buchsbaumness.

Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of toric varieties with at most one singular point

We establish upper bounds for the Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity of the coordinate ring of a simplicial projective toric variety with at most one singular point. In the smooth case, our results recover the bound of Herzog and Hibi [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 131 (2003), 2641--2647], and therefore the Eisenbud--Goto bound. Furthermore, when the variety has exactly one singular point and dimension at least $3$, we prove that its regularity also satisfies the Eisenbud--Goto bound. The proof combines combinatorial and homological methods: we study the asymptotic behavior of the sumsets associated to the toric variety and relate it to Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity via a Hochster-like formula.

Generalized divisor topology of commutative rings

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with nonzero identity and let $R^\#$ denote the set of its nonzero nonunits. We extend the divisor topology $D(R)$, previously studied for integral domains, to arbitrary commutative rings and introduce the generalized divisor topology $GD(R)$ on $EC(R^\#)$. Its basic open sets are \[ B_a=\{[b]\in EC(R^\#): b\mid a^n \text{ for some }n\geq 1\}. \] The relation \[ [b]\in B_a \quad\Longleftrightarrow\quad \sqrt{aR}\subseteq\sqrt{bR} \] shows that $GD(R)$ records radical divisibility among principal ideals. We prove that $GD(R)$ is an Alexandrov space and identify its Kolmogorov quotient with the poset of radicals of nonzero proper principal ideals. This description yields characterizations of the $T_0$ and discrete properties and of the equality $GD(R)=D(R)$. We also determine the isolated points of $GD(R)$. Further, we characterize nestedness, compactness, the Lindelöf property, and Noetherianity in terms of the order structure of radicals of principal ideals. In particular, for an integral domain $R$, $GD(R)$ is compact if and only if $R$ is a $G$-domain, while for a UFD the Lindelöf and Noetherian properties are determined by the number of nonassociate prime elements. Finally, we study the interaction of $GD(R)$ with multiplication and describe the behavior of its Kolmogorov quotient under surjective homomorphisms with nil kernel.
