We introduce equivariant formal deformation theory of associative algebra morphisms. We also present an equivariant deformation cohomology of associative algebra morphisms and using this we study the equivariant formal deformation theory of associative algebra morphisms. We discuss some examples of equivariant deformations and use the Maurer-Cartan equation to characterize equivariant deformations.

In this note we show that for a ${*}^n$-module, in particular, an almost $n$-tilting module, $P$ over a ring $R$ with $A={\mathrm{E}nd}_{R}P$ such that $P_A$ has finite flat dimension, the upper bound of the global dimension of $A$ can be estimated by the global dimension of $R$ and hence generalize the corresponding results in tilting theory and the ones in the theory of $*$-modules. As an application, we show that for a finitely generated projective module over a VN regular ring $R$, the global dimension of its endomorphism ring is not more...

To a commutative ring K, and a family of K-algebras indexed by the vertex set of a graph, we associate a K-algebra obtained by a mixture of coproduct and tensor product constructions. For this, and related constructions, we give exact sequences and deduce homological properties.

Let $R$ be an exchange ring in which all regular elements are one-sided unit-regular. Then every regular element in $R$ is the sum of an idempotent and a one-sided unit. Furthermore, we extend this result to exchange rings satisfying related comparability.

In this paper we investigate the related comparability over exchange rings. It is shown that an exchange ring R satisfies the related comparability if and only if for any regular x C R, there exists a related unit w C R and a group G in R such that wx C G.

We characterize exchange rings having stable range one. An exchange ring $R$ has stable range one if and only if for any regular $a\in R$, there exist an $e\in E\left(R\right)$ and a $u\in U\left(R\right)$ such that $a=e+u$ and $aR\cap eR=0$ if and only if for any regular $a\in R$, there exist $e\in r.ann\left(a^{+}\right)$ and $u\in U\left(R\right)$ such that $a=e+u$ if and only if for any $a,b\in R$, $R/aR\cong R/bR⟹aR\cong bR$.

Existence of proper Gorenstein projective resolutions and Tate cohomology is proved over rings with a dualizing complex. The proofs are based on Bousfield Localization which is originally a method from algebraic topology.

Let $R$ be a ring. In two previous articles [12, 14] we studied the homotopy category $𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)$ of projective $R$-modules. We produced a set of generators for this category, proved that the category is ${\aleph }_1$-compactly generated for any ring $R$, and showed that it need not always be compactly generated, but is for sufficiently nice $R$. We furthermore analyzed the inclusion $j_{!}^{}:𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)\to 𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Flat}\right)$ and the orthogonal subcategory $𝒮={𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)}^{\perp }$. And we even showed that the inclusion $𝒮\to 𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Flat}\right)$ has a right adjoint; this forces some natural map to be an equivalence...

Using derived categories, we develop an alternative approach to defining Koszulness for positively graded algebras where the degree zero part is not necessarily semisimple.

It is shown that a ring $R$ is a $GM$-ring if and only if there exists a complete orthogonal set $\{e_1,\cdots ,e_n\}$ of idempotents such that all $e_{i}R{e}_i$ are $GM$-rings. We also investigate $GM$-rings for Morita contexts, module extensions and power series rings.

Let $R$ be a ring. A left $R$-module $M$ is called an FC-module if $M^{+}={Hom}_{\mathbb{Z}}(M,\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z})$ is a flat right $R$-module. In this paper, some homological properties of FC-modules are given. Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer and ${\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n$ the class of all left $R$-modules $M$ such that the flat dimension of $M^{+}$ is less than or equal to $n$. It is shown that $({}^{\perp }\left({\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n^{\perp }\right),{\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n^{\perp })$ is a complete cotorsion pair and if $R$ is a ring such that $fd\left({\left({}_{R}R\right)}^{+}\right)\le n$ and ${\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n$ is closed under direct sums, then $({\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n,{\mathrm{ℱ𝒞}}_n^{\perp })$ is a perfect cotorsion pair. In particular, some known results are obtained as corollaries....
