Polynomial growth of Betti sequences over local rings

This is a study of the sequences of Betti numbers of finitely generated modules over a complete intersection local ring, $R$. The subsequences $\{β^R_{i}(M)\}_{i\geq 0}$ with even, respectively, odd $i$ are known to be eventually given by polynomials in i with equal leading terms. We show that these polynomials coincide if $I^\square$, the ideal generated by the quadratic relations of the associated graded ring of $R$, satisfies ${\rm height}\ I^\square \ge {\rm codim}\ R -1$, and that the converse holds if $R$ is homogeneous or ${\rm codim}\ R \le 4$. Subsequently Avramov, Packauskas, and Walker proved that the terms of degree $j > {\rm codim}\ R - {\rm height}\ I^\square$ of the even and odd Betti polynomials are equal. We give a new proof of that result, based on an intrinsic characterization of residue rings of c.i. local rings of minimal multiplicity obtained in this paper. We also show that that bound is optimal.

Persistence of homology over commutative noetherian rings

We describe new classes of noetherian local rings $R$ whose finitely generated modules $M$ have the property that $Tor_i^R(M,M)=0$ for $i\gg 0$ implies that $M$ has finite projective dimension, or $Ext^i_R(M,M)=0$ for $i\gg 0$ implies that $M$ has finite projective dimension or finite injective dimension.

Restricting homology to hypersurfaces

This paper concerns the homological properties of a module $M$ over a commutative noetherian ring $R$ relative to a presentation $R\cong P/I$, where $P$ is local ring. It is proved that the Betti sequence of $M$ with respect to $P/(f)$ for a regular element $f$ in $I$ depends only on the class of $f$ in $I/\mathfrak{n} I$, where $\mathfrak{n}$ is the maximal ideal of $P$. Applications to the theory of supports sets in local algebra and in the modular representation theory of elementary abelian groups are presented.

Big Cohen-Macaulay modules, morphisms of perfect complexes, and intersection theorems in local algebra

There is a well known link from the first topic in the title to the third one. In this paper we thread that link through the second topic. The central result is a criterion for the tensor nilpotence of morphisms of perfect complexes over commutative noetherian rings, in terms of a numerical invariant of the complexes known as their level. Applications to local rings include a strengthening of the Improved New Intersection Theorem, short direct proofs of several results equivalent to it, and lower bounds on the ranks of the modules in every finite free complex that admits a structure of differential graded module over the Koszul complex on some system of parameters.

Homology over trivial extensions of commutative DG algebras

Conditions on the Koszul complex of a noetherian local ring $R$ guarantee that $\mathrm{Tor}^{R}_{i}(M,N)$ is non-zero for infinitely many $i$, when $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated $R$-modules of infinite projective dimension. These conditions are obtained from results concerning Tor of differential graded modules over certain trivial extensions of commutative differential graded algebras.

Quasi-complete intersection homomorphisms

Extending a notion defined for surjective maps by Blanco, Majadas, and Rodicio, we introduce and study a class of homomorphisms of commutative noetherian rings, which strictly contains the class of locally complete intersection homomorphisms, while sharing many of its remarkable properties.

Subadditivity of syzygies of Koszul algebras

Estimates are obtained for the degrees of minimal syzygies of quotient algebras of polynomial rings. For a class that includes Koszul algebra in almost all characteristics, these degrees are shown to increase by at most 2 from one syzygy module to the next one. Even slower growth is proved if, in addition, the algebra satisfies Green and Lazarsfeld's condition N_q with q > 1.

(Contravariant) Koszul duality for DG algebras

A DG algebras $A$ over a field $k$ with $H(A)$ connected and $H_{<0}(A)=0$ has a unique up to isomorphism DG module $K$ with $H(K)\cong k$. It is proved that if $H(A)$ is degreewise finite, then $RHom_A(?,K): D^{df}_{+}(A)^{op} \equiv D_{df}^{+}}(RHom_A(K,K))$ is an exact equivalence of derived categories of DG modules with degreewise finite-dimensional homology. It induces an equivalences of $D^{df}_{b}(A)^{op}$ and the category of perfect DG $RHom_A(K,K)$-modules, and vice-versa. Corresponding statements are proved also when $H(A)$ is simply connected and $H^{<0}(A)=0$.

Bass numbers over local rings via stable cohomology

For any non-zero finite module M of finite projective dimension over a noetherian local ring R with maximal ideal m and residue field k, it is proved that the natural map Ext_R(k,M)-->Ext_R(k,M/mM) is non-zero when R is regular and is zero otherwise. A noteworthy aspect of the proof is the use of stable cohomology. Applications include computations of Bass series over certain local rings.

A cohomological study of local rings of embedding codepth 3

The generating series of the Bass numbers $μ^i_R=\mathrm{rank}_k \mathrm{Ext}^i_R(k,R)$ of local rings $R$ with residue field $k$ are computed in closed rational form, in case the embedding dimension $e$ of $R$ and its depth $d$ satisfy $e-d\le 3$. For each such $R$ it is proved that there is a real number $γ>1$, such that $μ^{d+i}_R\geγμ^{d+i-1}_R$ holds for all $i\ge 0$, except for $i=2$ in two explicitly described cases, where $μ^{d+2}_R=μ^{d+1}_R=2$. New restrictions are obtained on the multiplicative structures of minimal free resolutions of length 3 over regular local rings.

Homological invariants of modules over contracting endomorphisms

It is proved that when R is a local ring of positive characteristic, $ϕ$ is its Frobenius endomorphism, and some non-zero finite R-module has finite flat dimension or finite injective dimension for the R-module structure induced through $ϕ$, then R is regular. This broad generalization of Kunz's characterization of regularity in positive characteristic is deduced from a theorem concerning a local ring R with residue field of k of arbitrary characteristic: If $ϕ$ is a contracting endomorphism of R, then the Betti numbers and the Bass numbers over $ϕ$ of any non-zero finitely generated R-module grow at the same rate, on an exponential scale, as the Betti numbers of k over R.

Connected sums of Gorenstein local rings

A new construction of rings is introduced, studied, and applied. Given surjective homomorphisms $R\to T\gets S$ of local rings, and ideals in $R$ and $S$ that are isomorphic to some $T$-module $V$, the \emph{connected sum} $R#_TS$ is defined to be the local ring obtained by factoring out the diagonal image of $V$ in the fiber product $R\times_TS$. When $T$ is Cohen-Macaulay of dimension $d$ and $V$ is a canonical module of $T$, it is proved that if $R$ and $S$ are Gorenstein of dimension $d$, then so is $R#_TS$. This result is used to study how closely an artinian ring can be approximated by Gorenstein rings mapping onto it. It is proved that when $T$ is a field the cohomology algebra $\Ext^*_{R#_kS}(k,k)$ is an amalgam of the algebras $\Ext^*_{R}(k,k)$ and $\Ext^*_{S}(k,k)$ over isomorphic polynomial subalgebras generated by one element of degree 2. This is used to show that when $T$ is regular, the ring $R#_TS$ almost never is complete intersection.

Detecting flatness over smooth bases

Given an essentially finite type morphism of schemes f: X --> Y and a positive integer d, let f^{d}: X^{d} --> Y denote the natural map from the d-fold fiber product, X^{d}, of X over Y and π_i: X^{d} --> X the i'th canonical projection. When Y smooth over a field and F is a coherent sheaf on X, it is proved that F is flat over Y if (and only if) f^{d} maps the associated points of the tensor product sheaf \otimes_{i=1}^d π_i^*(F) to generic points of Y, for some d greater than or equal to dim Y. The equivalent statement in commutative algebra is an analog---but not a consequence---of a classical criterion of Auslander and Lichtenbaum for the freeness of finitely generated modules over regular local rings.

Short Koszul modules

This article is concerned with graded modules M with linear resolutions over a standard graded algebra R. It is proved that if such an M has Hilbert series $H_M(s)$ of the form $ps^d+qs^{d+1}$, then the algebra R is Koszul; if, in addition, M has constant Betti numbers, then $H_R(s)=1+es+(e-1)s^{2}$. When $H_R(s)=1+es+rs^{2}$ with $r\leq e-1$, and R is Gorenstein or $e=r+1\le 3$, it is proved that generic R-modules with $q\leq(e-1)p$ are linear.

Cohomology over complete intersections via exterior algebras

A general method for establishing results over a commutative complete intersection local ring by passing to differential graded modules over a graded exterior algebra is described. It is used to deduce, in a uniform way, results on the growth of resolutions of complexes over such local rings.

Reflexivity and rigidity for complexes, II: Schemes

We prove basic facts about reflexivity in derived categories over noetherian schemes; and about related notions such as semidualizing complexes, invertible complexes, and Gorenstein-perfect maps. Also, we study a notion of rigidity with respect to semidualizing complexes, in particular, relative dualizing complexes for Gorenstein-perfect maps. Our results include theorems of Yekutieli and Zhang concerning rigid dualizing complexes on schemes. This work is a continuation of part I, which dealt with commutative rings.

Reduction of derived Hochschild functors over commutative algebras and schemes

We study functors underlying derived Hochschild cohomology, also called Shukla cohomology, of a commutative algebra S essentially of finite type and of finite flat dimension over a commutative noetherian ring K. We construct a complex of S-modules D, and natural reduction isomorphisms Ext^*_{S\otimes^L_{K}S}(S|K;M\otimes^L_{K}N) ~ Ext^*_S(RHom_S(M,D),N) for all complexes of S-modules N and all complexes M of finite flat dimension over K whose homology H(M) is finitely generated over S; such isomorphisms determine D up to derived isomorphism. Using Grothendieck duality theory we establish analogous isomorphisms for any essentially finite type flat maps f: X->Y of noetherian schemes, with f^!(O_Y) in place of D.

Reflexivity and rigidity for complexes. I. Commutative rings

A notion of rigidity with respect to an arbitrary semidualizing complex C over a commutative noetherian ring R is introduced and studied. One of the main result characterizes C-rigid complexes. Specialized to the case when C is the relative dualizing complex of a homomorphism of rings of finite Gorenstein dimension, it leads to broad generalizations of theorems of Yekutieli and Zhang concerning rigid dualizing complexes, in the sense of Van den Bergh. Along the way, a number of new results concerning derived reflexivity with respect to C are established. Noteworthy is the statement that derived C-reflexivity is a local property; it implies that a finite R-module M has finite G-dimension over R if it is locally of finite G-dimension.
