Finite Flat and Projective Dimension
نویسنده
چکیده
known as the left big finitistic projective dimension of A, is finite. Here pdM denotes the projective dimension of M . Unfortunately, this number is not known to be finite even if A is a finite dimensional algebra over a field, where, indeed, its finiteness is a celebrated conjecture. On the other hand, for such an algebra, finite flat certainly implies finite projective dimension, simply because each flat module is projective. So it seems that there might be results based on other conditions than finiteness of FPD(A). The germ of such a result is in [2, cor. 3.4] which shows that finite flat implies finite projective dimension for a ring which is a homomorphic image of a noetherian commutative Gorenstein ring with finite Krull dimension. Now, for such a ring, FPD(A) is in fact finite, and so formally, [2, cor. 3.4] follows from [3, prop. 6]. However, the method of proof of [2, cor. 3.4] lends itself to generalization, and in this note I will use it to show that finite flat implies finite projective dimension for any right-noetherian algebra which admits a dualizing complex. This includes finite dimensional algebras, but also more interesting cases such as noetherian complete semi-local PI algebras, and filtered algebras whose associated graded algebras are connected and noetherian, and either PI, graded FBN, or with enough normal elements.

(n, m)-Strongly Gorenstein Projective Modules
This paper is a continuation of the papers J. Pure Appl. Algebra, 210 (2007), 437–445 and J. Algebra Appl., 8 (2009), 219–227. Namely, we introduce and study a doubly filtered set of classes of modules of finite Gorenstein projective dimension, which are called (n, m)-strongly Gorenstein projective ((n, m)-SG-projective for short) for integers n ≥ 1 and m ≥ 0. We are mainly interested in studyi...
متن کاملA Local Flatness Criterion for Complete Modules
We prove various extensions of the Local Flatness Criterion over a Noetherian local ring R with residue field k. For instance, if Ω is a complete R-module of finite projective dimension, then Ω is flat if and only if Torn (Ω, k) = 0 for all n = 1, . . . , depth(R). In low dimensions, we have the following criteria. If R is onedimensional and reduced, then Ω is flat if and only if Tor1 (Ω, k) = ...

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. We prove that over a local ring $R$ every finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of finite Gorenstein projective dimension has a Gorenstein projective cover$varphi:C rightarrow M$ such that $C$ is finitely generated and the projective dimension of $Kervarphi$ is finite and $varphi$ is surjective.

Let $mathcal {A}$ be an abelian category with enough projective objects and $mathcal {X}$ be a full subcategory of $mathcal {A}$. We define Gorenstein projective objects with respect to $mathcal {X}$ and $mathcal{Y}_{mathcal{X}}$, respectively, where $mathcal{Y}_{mathcal{X}}$=${ Yin Ch(mathcal {A})| Y$ is acyclic and $Z_{n}Yinmathcal{X}}$. We point out that under certain hypotheses, these two G...
