depth of ideal in polynomial ring
Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring. Then the "depth" of an ideal $I$ measures the maximal length of regular sequence inside $I$. And $depth (R/I)$ measures the maximal length of regular sequence in ...

Relation of primary decomposition of two ideals
I have a simple question: Let $R=\mathbb{C} \lbrace t,u \rbrace$ be the ring of formal series in two variables. Let $I,J \subset R$ ideals of heigth one, and $I \subset J$. What is the relation of the ...

Grothendieck trace on local cohomology?
Let R be an augmented regular local ring over a field $k$ with maximal ideal m. There is the Grothendieck residue symbol:
$$Res: H^n_m(\Omega^n) \to k$$
If $k=\mathbb{C}$ and $R$ is affine space, ...

How to compute this $\mathrm{Ext}^1$?
Let $A$ be a regular local $\mathbb{C}$-algebra of dimension $2$, such as the localization of $\mathbb{C}[x,y]$ at $(x,y)$, and let $\nu=(\nu_1\geq\nu_2\geq\cdots\geq\nu_{\ell}\geq0)$, $\mu=(\mu_1\geq\...

Dimension of Ext modules [closed]
Let $(R,m)$ be a noetherian local ring, and $M$ and $N$ be two finitely generated $R$-module. Then is it true that $\dim \text{Ext}^k(M,N)\leq \dim M-k$? If not does the reversed inequality hold?

Regular rings and formally smooth algebras
Let $A\rightarrow B$ be a commutative $A$-algebra. If $A$ is a field and $B$ Noetherian and formally smooth over $A$, then it is known that $B$ must be a regular ring. Is there a partial converse of ...

Tor dimension in polynomial rings over Artin rings
I found this tricky problem in trying to understand some properties of local rings at non-smooth points of embedded curves. But this would be a very long story. So I make it short and I try to go ...

Ext groups of affine scheme
Let $A$ be a commutative ring. $\textbf{Spec}(A)$ is the the
spectrum of $A$. $M$ and $N$ are $A$-modules. $\tilde{M}$ and
$\tilde{N}$ are sheaves associated on $\textbf{Spec}(A)$
respectively.

Generalizing miracle flatness (Matsumura 23.1) via finite Tor-dimension
Let $(A,m_A)$ and $(B,m_B)$ be noetherian local rings and $f:A\rightarrow B$ a local homomorphism. Let $F = B/m_AB$ be the fiber ring and assume that
$$\mathrm{dim}(B) = \mathrm{dim}(A) + \mathrm{dim}...

Refinement of concept of support of a module
My rings are commutative and noetherian.
The support of a module is usually defined to be the set of prime ideals of the ring such that localization at that prime does not make the module zero. This ...

Can injective modules over R give non-injective sheaves over Spec R?
In [Hartshorne, III.3] he proves that injective modules over $R$ give flasque sheaves over $Spec\ R$. I presume that's because they don't give injective sheaves, and flasque is the consolation prize. ...

Coherence of the monoid algebra of a non-finitely generated monoid

Can we say anything about the Krull dimension of a localization?
I'm looking for a theorem of the form
If $R$ is a nice ring and $v$ is a reasonable element in $R$ then Kr.Dim$(R[\frac{1}{v}])$ must be either Kr.Dim$(R)$ or Kr.Dim$(R)-1$.
My attempts to do ...

Projective resolution of modules over rings which are regular in codimension n
All rings are Noetherian and commutative, modules are finitely generated.
It is a theorem of Serre that over a regular ring $R$, every module has a finite projective resolution.
More generally, if $...

Why do modules with small support have high Exts?

1.) The codimension of the support of $M$
2.) The ...
