Let $R$ and $S$ be commutative rings with identity, $J$ be an ideal of $S$, $f:R\to S$ be a ring homomorphism, $M$ be an $R$-module, $N$ be an $S$-module, and let $\varphi :M\to N$ be an $R$-homomorphism. The amalgamation of $R$ with $S$ along $J$ with respect to $f$ denoted by $R{\bowtie }^{f}J$ was introduced by M. D’Anna et al. (2010). Recently, R. El Khalfaoui et al. (2021) introduced a special kind of $\left(R{\bowtie }^{f}J\right)$-module called the amalgamation of $M$ and $N$ along $J$ with respect to $\varphi$, and denoted by $M{\bowtie }^{\varphi }JN$. We study some homological properties of the $\left(R{\bowtie }^{f}J\right)$-module $M{\bowtie }^{\varphi }JN$. Among...

Let $R$ be a ring. A subclass $𝒯$ of left $R$-modules is called a weak torsion class if it is closed under homomorphic images and extensions. Let $𝒯$ be a weak torsion class of left $R$-modules and $n$ a positive integer. Then a left $R$-module $M$ is called $𝒯$-finitely generated if there exists a finitely generated submodule $N$ such that $M/N\in 𝒯$; a left $R$-module $A$ is called $(𝒯,n)$-presented if there exists an exact sequence of left $R$-modules $$0⟶K_{n-1}⟶F_{n-1}⟶\cdots ⟶F_1⟶F_0⟶M⟶0$$ such that $F_0,\cdots ,F_{n-1}$ are finitely generated free and $K_{n-1}$ is $𝒯$-finitely generated;...

A QTAG-module $M$ is an $\alpha$-module, where $\alpha$ is a limit ordinal, if $M/H_{\beta }\left(M\right)$ is totally projective for every ordinal $\beta <\alpha$. In the present paper $\alpha$-modules are studied with the help of $\alpha$-pure submodules, $\alpha$-basic submodules, and $\alpha$-large submodules. It is found that an $\alpha$-closed $\alpha$-module is an $\alpha$-injective. For any ordinal $\omega \le \alpha \le {\omega }_1$ we prove that an $\alpha$-large submodule $L$ of an ${\omega }_1$-module $M$ is summable if and only if $M$ is summable.

Let $n,d$ be two non-negative integers. A left $R$-module $M$ is called $(n,d)$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^{d+1}(N,M)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called $(n,d)$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_{d+1}(V,N)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A left $R$-module $M$ is called weakly $n$-$FP$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^n(N,M)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called weakly $n$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_n(V,N)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. In this paper, we give some characterizations and properties of $(n,d)$-injective modules and $(n,d)$-flat modules in...

Let $𝒯$ be a weak torsion class of left $R$-modules and $n$ a positive integer. A left $R$-module $M$ is called $(𝒯,n)$-injective if ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^n(C,M)=0$ for each $(𝒯,n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $C$; a right $R$-module $M$ is called $(𝒯,n)$-flat if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_n^R(M,C)=0$ for each $(𝒯,n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $C$; a left $R$-module $M$ is called $(𝒯,n)$-projective if ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^n(M,N)=0$ for each $(𝒯,n)$-injective left $R$-module $N$; the ring $R$ is called strongly $(𝒯,n)$-coherent if whenever $0\to K\to P\to C\to 0$ is exact, where $C$ is $(𝒯,n+1)$-presented and $P$ is finitely generated projective, then $K$ is $(𝒯,n)$-projective; the ring $R$ is called...

Let $(R,𝔪)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $𝔞$ be an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module such that $𝔞M\ne M$ and $\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)-\mathrm{grade}(𝔞,M)\le 1$, where $\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)$ is the cohomological dimension of $M$ with respect to $𝔞$ and $\mathrm{grade}(𝔞,M)$ is the $M$-grade of $𝔞$. Let $D(-):={\mathrm{Hom}}_R(-,E)$ be the Matlis dual functor, where $E:=E(R/𝔪)$ is the injective hull of the residue field $R/𝔪$. We show that there exists the following long exact sequence $$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill 0⟶& H_{𝔞}^{n-2}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^n\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶D\left(M\right)\\ \hfill ⟶& H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^{n+1}\left(D\left(H_{𝔞}^n\left(M\right)\right)\right)\\ \hfill ⟶& H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{(x_1,...,x_{n-1})}^{n-1}\left(M\right)\right)\right)⟶H_{𝔞}^n\left(D\left(H_{(}^{n-1}M\right)\right))⟶...,\end{array}$$ where $n:=\mathrm{cd}(𝔞,M)$ is a non-negative integer, $x_1,...,x_{n-1}$ is a regular sequence in $𝔞$ on $M$ and, for an $R$-module $L$, $H_{𝔞}^i\left(L\right)$ is the $i$th local cohomology module...

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$. Let $t\in {\mathbb{N}}_0$ be an integer and $M$ an $R$-module such that ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^i(R/I,M)$ is minimax for all $i\le t+1$. We prove that if $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ is ${\mathrm{FD}}_{\le 1}$ (or weakly Laskerian) for all $i<t$, then the $R$-modules $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ are $I$-cominimax for all $i<t$ and ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^i(R/I,H_I^t\left(M\right))$ is minimax for $i=0,1$. Let $N$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. We prove that ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^j(N,H_I^i\left(M\right))$ and ${\mathrm{Tor}}_j^R(N,H_I^i\left(M\right))$ are $I$-cominimax for all $i$ and $j$ whenever $M$ is minimax and $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ is ${\mathrm{FD}}_{\le 1}$ (or weakly Laskerian) for all $i$.

Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, and $I$ and $J$ be two ideals of $R$. Let $S$ be a Serre subcategory of the category of $R$-modules satisfying the condition $C_I$ and $M$ be a $ZD$-module. As a generalization of the $S$-$\mathrm{depth}(I,M)$ and $\mathrm{depth}(I,J,M)$, the $S$-$\mathrm{depth}$ of $(I,J)$ on $M$ is defined as $S$-$\mathrm{depth}(I,J,M)=inf\{S$-$\mathrm{depth}(𝔞,M):𝔞\in \tilde{\mathrm{W}}(I,J)\}$, and some properties of this concept are investigated. The relations between $S$-$\mathrm{depth}(I,J,M)$ and $H_{I,J}^i\left(M\right)$ are studied, and it is proved that $S$-$\mathrm{depth}(I,J,M)=inf\{i:H_{I,J}^i\left(M\right)\notin S\}$, where $S$ is a Serre subcategory closed under taking injective hulls. Some conditions are provided that local cohomology...

Let $G$ be a finite group. An element $g\in G$ is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible complex character $\chi$ of $G$ such that $\chi \left(g\right)=0$. Denote by $\mathrm{Vo}\left(G\right)$ the set of orders of vanishing elements of $G$. Ghasemabadi, Iranmanesh, Mavadatpour (2015), in their paper presented the following conjecture: Let $G$ be a finite group and $M$ a finite nonabelian simple group such that $\mathrm{Vo}\left(G\right)=\mathrm{Vo}\left(M\right)$ and $\left|G\right|=\left|M\right|$. Then $G\cong M$. We answer in affirmative this conjecture for $M=Sz\left(q\right)$, where $q=2^{2n+1}$ and either $q-1$, $q-\sqrt{2q}+1$ or $q+\sqrt{2q}+1$ is a prime number, and $M=F_4\left(q\right)$, where...

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we obtain several equivalent conditions to determine whether the principal block $B_0$ of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$ is $p$-radical, which means that $B_0$ has the property that $e_0{\left(k_P\right)}^G$ is semisimple as a $kG$-module, where $P$ is a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, $k_P$ is the trivial $kP$-module, ${\left(k_P\right)}^G$ is the induced module, and $e_0$ is the block idempotent of $B_0$. We also give the complete classification of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$ which has not more...
