On the definition of regular (non-noetherian, commutative) rings
All rings are commutative with unit. A ring $R$ is called regular if it satisfies
(Reg) Every finitely generated ideal of $R$ has finite projective dimension.
Clearly this gives the usual ...

Is there a slick proof of the fundamental theorem of dimension theory?
The fundamental theorem of dimension theory in commutative algebra states that given a module $M$ over a noetherian local ring $A$, we have $s(M)=\text{dim}(M)=d(M)$ (where $s(M)$ is the infimum of ...

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 ...
