Abstract

Let Λ be a ring with unit. If A is a left Λ -module, the dimension of A (notation: 1.dim Λ A ) is defined to be the least integer n for which there exists an exact sequence 0 → X n → … → X 0 → A → 0 where the left Λ -modules X 0 , …, X n are projective. If no such sequence exists for any n , then 1. dim A A = ∞. The left global dimension of Λ is 1. gl. dim Λ = sup 1. dim A A where A ranges over all left Λ -modules, The condition 1. dim A A < n is equivalent with ( A, C ) = 0 for all left Λ -modules C . The condition 1.gl. dim Λ < n is equivalent with = 0. Similar definitions and theorems hold for right Λ -modules.

The higher APR tilting modules and higher BB tilting modules were introduced and studied in higher Auslander-Reiten theory. Our objective is to consider these tilting modules by the corresponding simple modules, and show that the tensor product of higher APR (BB) tilting modules is a higher APR (BB) tilting module.

In representation theory, the double centraliser property is an important property for a module (bimodule). It plays a fundamental role in many theories. In this paper, we extend this property to complexes in derived categories of finite dimensional algebras, under the name derived double centraliser property. Characterizations for complexes with the derived double centraliser property and (two-sided) tilting complexes in derived categories of hereditary algebras are given. In particular, all complexes with this property in the derived categories of lower triangular matrix algebras are classified.

This is a companion paper of arXiv:1901.09461, where different notions of dimension for triangulated categories are discussed. Here we compute dimensions for some examples of triangulated categories and thus illustrate and motivate material from loc. cit. Our examples include path algebras of finite ordered quivers, orbifold projective lines, some tensor powers of path algebras in Dynkin quivers of type A and categories, generated by an exceptional pair.

This is a general study of twisted Calabi-Yau algebras that are graded and locally finite-dimensional, with the following major results. We prove that a locally finite graded algebra is twisted Calabi-Yau if and only if it is separable modulo its radical and satisfies one of several suitable generalizations of the Artin-Schelter regularity property, adapted from the work of Martinez-Villa as well as Minamoto and Mori. We characterize twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension~0 as separable $k$-algebras, and we similarly characterize graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension~1 as tensor algebras of certain invertible bimodules over separable algebras. Finally, we prove that a graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebra of dimension~2 is noetherian if and only if it has finite GK dimension.

Let $B\subset A$ be a bounded extension of finite dimensional algebras. We use the Jacobi-Zariski long nearly exact sequence to show that $B$ satisfies Han's conjecture if and only if $A$ does, regardless if the extension splits or not. We provide conditions ensuring that an extension by arrows and relations is bounded. Examples of non split bounded extensions are given and we obtain a structure result for the extensions of an algebra given by a quiver and admissible relations.
... Because A is finitely generated, the ring End R (A) is Noetherian. Thus the maximal length of a minimal projective resolution in the category of left and right End R (A)-modules is the same, see [Aus55]. Therefore, we focus attention on the right modules over End R (A). 5 In practice, it is easy to see how large is sufficiently large; see the proof of Proposition 4.15. ...

Let $R$ be the coordinate ring of an affine toric variety. We show that the endomorphism ring $End_R(\mathbb A),$ where $\mathbb A$ is the (finite) direct sum of all (isomorphism classes of) conic $R$-modules, has finite global dimension. Furthermore, we show that $End_R(\mathbb A)$ is a non-commutative crepant resolution if and only if the toric variety is simplicial. For toric varieties over a perfect field $k$ of prime characteristic, we show that the ring of differential operators $D_\mathsf{k}(R)$ has finite global dimension.

Distinctive characteristics of Iwanaga--Gorenstein rings are typically understood through their intrinsic symmetry. We show that several of those that pertain to the Gorenstein global dimensions carry over to the one-sided situation, even without the noetherian hypothesis. Our results yield new relations among homological invariants related to the Gorenstein property, not only Gorenstein global dimensions but also the suprema of projective/injective dimensions of injective/projective modules and finitistic dimensions.

In this article, we prove that, under certain conditions, Morita context algebras that arise from Igusa-Todorov (LIT) algebras and have zero bimodule morphisms are also Igusa-Todorov (LIT). For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we prove that the class $\phi_0^{-1}(A) = \{M: \phi(M)=0\}$ is a 0-Igusa-Todorov subcategory if and only if $A$ is selfinjective or gl$\dim l(A)< \infty$. As a consequence $A$ is an $(n,V, \phi_0^{-1}(A))$ algebra if and only if $A$ is selfinjective or gl$\dim(A)< \infty$. We also show that the opposite algebra of a LIT algebra is not LIT in general.

In 1989, D. Happel pointed out for a possible connection between the global dimension of a finite-dimensional algebra and its Hochschild cohomology: is it true that the vanishing of Hochschild cohomology higher groups is sufficient to deduce that the global dimension is finite? After the discovery of a counterexample, Y. Han proposed, in 2006, to reformulate this question to homology. In this survey, after introducing the concepts and results involved, I present the efforts made until now towards the comprehension of Han's conjecture; which includes: examples of algebras that have been proven to satisfy it and extensions that preserve it.
... Sometimes, the value of a dimension is unaffected by this choice, that is, the dimension is left-right symmetric. This is true for both the global dimension of a Noetherian ring [Aus55,Theorem 4] To prove Theorem A, we define a ring construction that takes a basic finite dimensional algebra A and produces a related algebraÃ. The finitistic dimension ofà bounds the finitistic dimension of A from above. ...

We describe necessary and sufficient conditions for the hereditarity of the category algebra of an infinite EI category satisfying certain combinatorial assumptions. More generally, we discuss conditions such that the left global dimension of a category algebra equals the maximal left global dimension of the endomorphism algebras of its objects, and classify its projective modules in this case. As applications, we completely classify transporter categories, orbit categories, and Quillen categories with left hereditary category algebras over a field.

If $R$ is a quasi-Frobenius ring of infinite global dimension, then this functor is not full. If $R$ has finite left global dimension, this functor is an equivalence. We also prove variants of the latter assertion for left coherent rings, for noetherian schemes and for locally noetherian Grothendieck categories.

We continue the combinatorial description of thick subcategories in hereditary categories started by Igusa-Schiffler-Thomas and Krause. We show that for a weighted projective line $\mathbb{X}$ there exists an order preserving bijection between the thick subcategories of $\text{coh}(\mathbb{X})$ generated by an exceptional sequence and the factorization poset of a Coxeter transformation $c$ in the Weyl group of a simply-laced generalized root system if the Hurwitz action is transitive on the reduced factorizations of $c$. By using combinatorial and group theoretical tools we show that this assumption on the transitivity of the Hurwitz action is fulfilled for a weighted projective line $\mathbb{X}$ of tubular type. In this case the factorization poset is given as the set of prefixes of a Coxeter transformation in certain elliptic Weyl groups described by Saito. As a byproduct we obtain a result on the Hurwitz action on non-reduced reflection factorizations in finite Coxeter groups which partially generalizes a result of Lewis-Reiner.

The aim of the paper is to prove two conjectures that the (left and right) global dimension of the algebra of polynomial integro-differential operators $\mathbb{I}_n$ and the Jacobian algebra $\mathbb{A}_n$ is equal to $n$ (over a field of characteristic zero). An analogue of Hilbert's Syzygy Theorem is proven for them. The algebras $\mathbb{I}_n$ and $\mathbb{A}_n$ are neither left nor right Noetherian. Furthermore, they contain infinite direct sums of nonzero left/right ideals and are not domains. It is proven that the global dimension of all prime factor algebras of the algebras $\mathbb{I}_n$ and $\mathbb{A}_n$ is $n$ and the weak global dimension of all the factor algebras of $\mathbb{I}_n$ and $\mathbb{I}_n$ is $n$.

The first result generalizes Theorem 4.3 in [Adv. Math., 2019, 354: 106735, 21 pp.].

The second result shows an Auslander algebra Λ is left or right glued if and only if Λ is representation-finite.

Applications of this property are investigated.

We introduce an analytic method that uses the global dimension function $\operatorname{gldim}$ to produce contractible flows on the space $\operatorname{Stab}\mathcal{D}$ of stability conditions on a triangulated category $\mathcal{D}$. In the case when $\mathcal{D}=\mathcal{D}(\mathbf{S}^\lambda)$ is the topological Fukaya category of a graded surface $\mathbf{S}^\lambda$, we show that $\operatorname{gldim}^{-1}(0,y)$ contracts to $\operatorname{gldim}^{-1}(0,x)$ for any $1\le x\le y$, provided $(x,y)$ does not contain `critical' values $\{1+w_\partial/m_\partial \mid w_\partial\ge0, \partial\in\partial\mathbf{S}^\lambda\}$, where the pair $(m_\partial,w_\partial)$ consists of the number $m_\partial$ of marked points and the winding number $w_\partial$ associated to a boundary component $\partial$ of $\mathbf{S}^\lambda$. One consequence is that the global dimension of $\mathcal{D}(\mathbf{S}^\lambda)$ must be one of these critical values. Besides, we remove the assumptions in Kikuta-Ouchi-Takahashi's classification result on triangulated categories with global dimension less than 1.

The Gabriel–Roiter measure is used to give an alternative proof of the finiteness of the representation dimension for Artin algebras, a result established by Iyama in 2002. The concept of Gabriel–Roiter measure can be extended to abelian length categories and every such category has multiple Gabriel–Roiter measures. Using this notion, we prove the following broader statement: given any object $X$ and any Gabriel–Roiter measure $\mu $ in an abelian length category $\mathcal{A}$, there exists an object $X^{\prime}$ that depends on $X$ and $\mu $, such that $\Gamma =\operatorname{End}_{\mathcal{A}}(X\oplus X^{\prime}) $ has finite global dimension. Analogously to Iyama’s original results, our construction yields quasihereditary rings and fits into the theory of rejective chains.

We define a Noetherian algebra \({\widehat{H}}\) over a power series ring, which provides a direct link between the representation theory of H and of \({\widetilde{H}}\). We define and study a reduction and a localization functor relating the module categories of \({\widehat{H}}\), \({\widetilde{H}}\) and H. These are used to show that there are natural bijections between the sets of isoclasses of tilting modules over the three algebras \({\widehat{H}}\), \({\widetilde{H}}\) and H. We show that the indecomposable rigid locally free H-modules are parametrized, via their rank vectors, by the real Schur roots associated to \((C,\Omega )\). Moreover, the left finite bricks of H, in the sense of Asai, are parametrized, via their dimension vectors, by the real Schur roots associated to \((C^T,\Omega )\).

Let R be the coordinate ring of an affine toric variety. We prove, using direct elementary methods, that the endomorphism ring EndR(A), where A is the (finite) direct sum of all (isomorphism classes of) conic R-modules, has finite global dimension equal to the dimension of R. This gives a precise version, and an elementary proof, of a theorem of Spenko and Van den Bergh ˇ implying that EndR(A) has finite global dimension. Furthermore, we show that EndR(A) is a non-commutative crepant resolution if and only if the toric variety is simplicial. For toric varieties over a perfect field k of prime characteristic, we show that the ring of differential operators Dk(R) has finite global dimension.

Let $C$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix with symmetrizer $D$ and orientation $\Omega$. In previous work we associated an algebra $H$ to this data, such that the locally free $H$-modules behave in many aspects like representations of a hereditary algebra $\tilde{H}$ of the corresponding type. We define a Noetherian algebra $\hat{H}$ over a power series ring, which provides a direct link between the representation theory of $H$ and of $\tilde{H}$. We define and study a reduction and a localization functor relating the module categories of these three types of algebras. These are used to show that there are natural bijections between the sets of isoclasses of tilting modules over $H$, $\hat{H}$ and $\tilde{H}$.

In this paper, we mainly investigate $\mathfrak{X}$-Gorenstein projective dimension of modules and the (left) $\mathfrak{X}$-Gorenstein global dimension of rings. Some properties of $\mathfrak{X}$-Gorenstein projective dimensions are obtained. Furthermore, we prove that the (left) $\mathfrak{X}$-Gorenstein global dimension of ring $R$ is equal to the supremum of the set of $\mathfrak{X}$-Gorenstein projective dimensions of all cyclic (left) $R$-modules. This result extends the well-known Auslander's theorem on the global dimension and its Gorenstein homological version.

We study the following generalization of singularity categories. Let X be a quasi-projective Gorenstein scheme with isolated singularities and A a non-commutative resolution of singularities of X in the sense of Van den Bergh. We introduce the relative singularity category as the Verdier quotient of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on A modulo the category of perfect complexes on X. We view it as a measure for the difference between X and A. The main results of this thesis are the following. (i) We prove an analogue of Orlov's localization result in our setup. If X has isolated singularities, then this reduces the study of the relative singularity categories to the affine case. (ii) We prove Hom-finiteness and idempotent completeness of the relative singularity categories in the complete local situation and determine its Grothendieck group. (iii) We give a complete and explicit description of the relative singularity categories when X has only nodal singularities and the resolution is given by a sheaf of Auslander algebras. (iv) We study relations between relative singularity categories and classical singularity categories. For a simple hypersurface singularity and its Auslander resolution, we show that these categories determine each other. (v) The developed technique leads to the following `purely commutative' application: a description of Iyama & Wemyss triangulated category for rational surface singularities in terms of the singularity category of the rational double point resolution. (vi) We give a description of singularity categories of gentle algebras.

Format: LaTeX MathJax PDF Abstract A classification of simple weight modules over the Schrödinger algebra is given. The Krull and the global dimensions are found for the centralizer $C_{\mathcal{S}}(H)$ (and some of its prime factor algebras) of the Cartan element $H$ in the universal enveloping algebra $\mathcal{S}$ of the Schrödinger (Lie) algebra. The simple $C_{\mathcal{S}}(H)$-modules are classified. The Krull and the global dimensions are found for some (prime) factor algebras of the algebra $\mathcal{S}$ (over the centre). It is proved that some (prime) factor algebras of $\mathcal{S}$ and $C_{\mathcal{S}}(H)$ are tensor homological/Krull minimal.

It is shown that a knice subgroup with cardinality ℵ 1 {\aleph _1} , of a torsion-free completely decomposable abelian group, is again completely decomposable. Any torsion-free abelian k k -group of cardinality ℵ n {\aleph _n} has balanced projective dimension ≤ n \leq n .

This paper contains the proofs of the two following theorems: (1) Let (Mα)<y be a well-ordered decreasing system of submodules of the module M such that M=M0If M is strongly complete and strongly Hausdorff then (equation omitted) (2) Let R be a commutative ring having nonzero minimal idempotent ideals (Sα)α< y and let S,=∐<γ, Sa. An A-module is injective if and only if M=Annih S®M0where Annih S is injective and M0is strongly complete and Hausdorff in the topology introduced by annihilators of the direct sums of Sx.

The balanced-projective dimension of every abelian p-group is de- termined by means of a structural property that generalizes the third axiom of countability. As a corollary to our general structure theorem, we show for A = Wn that every pA-high subgroup of a p-group G has balanced-projective dimension exactly n whenever G has cardinality Nn but pAG *" O. Our characterization of balanced-projective dimension also leads to new classes of groups where different infinite dimensions are distinguished.

Let A be a finitely generated algebra over an absolutely flat commutative ring. Using sheaf-theoretic techniques, it is shown that the weak In the second section, it is shown that the natural analogue of the central simple algebra over a field is the central algebra over an absolutely flat ring which is a biregular ring in the sense of (5). Moreover, we show for every finitely gen- erated algebra A of finite Hochschild dimension that A modulo its Jacobson radical N is separable over R. This allows us to obtain the characterization theorem (6, Corollary 2 to Theorem 3, p. 3111 in case R is absolutely flat. In the final section, a structure theorem is obtained for algebras of Hochschild dimension 1 and their homomorphic images in terms of their idempotent structure. These results are a generalization of those of S. IU. Chase in (4).
