Let Γ(R) be the zero divisor graph for a commutative ring with identity. The k-domination number and the 2-packing number of Γ(R), where R is an Artinian ring, are computed. k-dominating sets and 2-packing sets for the zero divisor graph of the ring of Gaussian integers modulo n, Γ(ℤₙ[i]), are constructed. The center, the median, the core, as well as the automorphism group of Γ(ℤₙ[i]) are determined. Perfect zero divisor graphs Γ(R) are investigated.

We provide several characterizations and investigate properties of Prüfer modules. In fact, we study the connections of such modules with their endomorphism rings. We also prove that for any Prüfer module M, the forcing linearity number of M, fln(M), belongs to {0,1}.

We introduce and study a new class of ring extensions based on a new formula involving the heights of their primes. We compare them with the classical altitude inequality and altitude formula, and we give another characterization of locally Jaffard domains, and domains satisfying absolutely the altitude inequality (resp., the altitude formula). Then we study the extensions R ⊆ S where R satisfies the corresponding condition with respect to S (Definition 3.1). This leads to a new characterization...

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity and $I$ an ideal of $R$. It is shown that, if $M$ is a non-zero minimax $R$-module such that $dim\mathrm{Supp}{H}_I^i\left(M\right)\le 1$ for all $i$, then the $R$-module $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ is $I$-cominimax for all $i$. In fact, $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ is $I$-cofinite for all $i\ge 1$. Also, we prove that for a weakly Laskerian $R$-module $M$, if $R$ is local and $t$ is a non-negative integer such that $dim\mathrm{Supp}{H}_I^i\left(M\right)\le 2$ for all $i<t$, then ${\mathrm{Ext}}_R^j(R/I,H_I^i\left(M\right))$ and ${\mathrm{Hom}}_R(R/I,H_I^t\left(M\right))$ are weakly Laskerian for all $i<t$ and all $j\ge 0$. As a consequence, the set of associated primes of $H_I^i\left(M\right)$ is finite for all $i\ge 0$, whenever $dimR/I\le 2$ and...

Let $(R,𝔪)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We say $M$ has maximal depth if there is an associated prime $𝔭$ of $M$ such that depth $M=dimR/𝔭$. In this paper we study squarefree monomial ideals which have maximal depth. Edge ideals of cycle graphs, transversal polymatroidal ideals and high powers of connected bipartite graphs with this property are classified.

We define nice partitions of the multicomplex associated with a Stanley ideal. As the main result we show that if the monomial ideal $I$ is a CM Stanley ideal, then $I^p$ is a Stanley ideal as well, where $I^p$ is the polarization of $I$.

Let $\ast$ be a star-operation on $R$ and $\ast {}_s$ the finite character star-operation induced by $\ast$. The purpose of this paper is to study when $\ast =v$ or $\ast {}_s=t$. In particular, we prove that if every prime ideal of $R$ is $\ast$-invertible, then $\ast =v$, and that if $R$ is a unique $\ast$-factorable domain, then $R$ is a Krull domain.
