We compute the Gorenstein weak dimension of a coherent power series rings over a commutative rings and we show that, in general, Gwdim (R) ≤ 1 does not imply that R is an arithmetical ring.

The so-called ’change-of-ring’ results are well-known expressions which present several connections between projective, injective and flat dimensions over the various base rings. In this note we extend these results to the Gorenstein dimensions over Cohen-Macaulay local rings.

We study the properties of rings satisfying Auslander-type conditions. If an artin algebra Λ satisfies the Auslander condition (that is, Λ is an ∞-Gorenstein artin algebra), then we construct two kinds of subcategories which form functorially finite cotorsion theories. Noetherian rings satisfying ‘Auslander-type conditions’ on self-injective resolutions can be regarded as certain non-commutativ...

Given a lattice polytope Q ⊆ IR, we define an affine scheme M̄ that reflects the possibilities of splitting Q into a Minkowski sum. On the other hand, Q induces a toric Gorenstein singularity Y , and we construct a flat family over M̄ with Y as special fiber. In case Y has an isolated singularity only, this family is versal.
