in this paper, we study projective randers change and c-conformal change of p-reduciblemetrics. then we show that every p-reducible generalized landsberg metric of dimension n  2 must be alandsberg metric. this implies that on randers manifolds the notions of generalized landsberg metric andberwald metric are equivalent.

we prove that every r-quadratic metric of scalar flag curvature with a dimension greater than twois of constant flag curvature. then we show that generalized douglas-weyl metrics contain r-quadraticmetrics as a special case, but the class of r-quadratic metric is not closed under projective transformations

We examine the projective dimensions of Mackey functors and cohomological Mackey functors. We show over a field of characteristic p that cohomological Mackey functors are Gorenstein if and only if Sylow p-subgroups are cyclic or dihedral, and they have finite global dimension if and only if the group order is invertible or Sylow subgroups are cyclic of order 2. By contrast, we show that the onl...

We address two aspects of finitely generated modules of finite projective dimension over local rings and their connection in between: embeddability and grade of order ideals of minimal generators of syzygies. We provide a solution of the embeddability problem and prove important reductions and special cases of the order ideal conjecture. In particular we derive that in any local ring R of mixed...

Let Λ be an Auslander’s 1-Gorenstein Artinian algebra with global dimension 2. If Λ admits a trivial maximal 1-orthogonal subcategory of modΛ, then for any indecomposable module M ∈ modΛ, we have that the projective dimension of M is equal to 1 if and only if so is its injective dimension and that M is injective if the projective dimension of M is equal to 2, which implies that Λ is almost here...

(Dual) hypergraphs have been used by Kimura, Rinaldo and Terai to characterize squarefree monomial ideals J with pd(R/J) ≤ μ(J) − 1, i.e. whose projective dimension equals the minimal number of generators of J minus 1. In this paper we prove sufficient and necessary combinatorial conditions for pd(R/J) ≤ μ(J)−2. The second main result is an effective explicit procedure to compute the projective...

Let Λ be an Auslander’s 1-Gorenstein Artinian algebra with global dimension two. If Λ admits a trivial maximal 1-orthogonal subcategory of modΛ, then for any indecomposable module M ∈ modΛ, we have that the projective dimension of M is equal to one if and only if so is its injective dimension and that M is injective if the projective dimension of M is equal to two. In this case, we further get ...
