In a previous article (J. Algebra 367 (2012), 142-165) we established axiomatic parametrised Cohen-Macaulay approximation which in particular was applied to pairs consisting of finite type flat family rings and modules. this sequel study the induced maps deformation functors deduce properties like smoothness injectivity under general, mainly cohomological conditions on module.

Given a local Noetherian ring (R, m) of dimension d > 0 and infinite residue field, we study the invariants (dimension and multiplicity) of the Sally module SJ (I) of any m-primary ideal I with respect to a minimal reduction J. As a by-product we obtain an estimate for the Hilbert coefficients of m that generalizes a bound established by J. Elias and G. Valla in a local Cohen-Macaulay setting. ...

We prove that sequentially Cohen-Macaulay rings in positive characteristic, as well as sequentially Cohen-Macaulay Stanley-Reisner rings in any characteristic, have trivial Lyubeznik table. Some other configurations of Lyubeznik tables are also provided depending on the deficiency modules of the ring.

We introduce the notion of relative singularity category with respect to any self-orthogonal subcategory ω of an abelian category. We introduce the Frobenius category of ω-Cohen-Macaulay objects, and under some reasonable conditions, we show that the stable category of ω-Cohen-Macaulay objects is triangle-equivalent to the relative singularity category. As applications, we relate the stable cat...

The main aim of this paper is to find a large class of rings for which there are indecomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules of arbitrary high multiplicity (or rank in the case of domains).

Let I ⊂ R be a graded ideal in the polynomial ring R = K[x1, . . . , xn] where K is a field, and fix a term order <. It has been shown in [17] that the Hilbert functions of the local cohomology modules of R/I are bounded by those of R/ in(I), where in(I) denotes the initial ideal of I with respect to <. In this note we study the question when the local cohomology modules of R/I and R/ in(I) hav...

Let C ⊂ N be an affine semigroup, and R = K[C] its semigroup ring. This paper is a collection of various results on “C-graded” R-modules M = ⊕ c∈C Mc, especially, monomial ideals of R. For example, we show the following: If R is normal and I ⊂ R is a radicalmonomial ideal (i.e., R/I is a generalization of Stanley-Reisner rings), then the sequentially Cohen-Macaulay property of R/I is a topologi...
