  • CRITERIA for FLATNESS and INJECTIVITY 3 Ring of R
    CRITERIA FOR FLATNESS AND INJECTIVITY NEIL EPSTEIN AND YONGWEI YAO Abstract. Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring. We give criteria for flatness of R-modules in terms of associated primes and torsion-freeness of certain tensor products. This allows us to develop a criterion for regularity if R has characteristic p, or more generally if it has a locally contracting en- domorphism. Dualizing, we give criteria for injectivity of R-modules in terms of coassociated primes and (h-)divisibility of certain Hom-modules. Along the way, we develop tools to achieve such a dual result. These include a careful analysis of the notions of divisibility and h-divisibility (including a localization result), a theorem on coassociated primes across a Hom-module base change, and a local criterion for injectivity. 1. Introduction The most important classes of modules over a commutative Noetherian ring R, from a homological point of view, are the projective, flat, and injective modules. It is relatively easy to check whether a module is projective, via the well-known criterion that a module is projective if and only if it is locally free. However, flatness and injectivity are much harder to determine. R It is well-known that an R-module M is flat if and only if Tor1 (R/P,M)=0 for all prime ideals P . For special classes of modules, there are some criteria for flatness which are easier to check. For example, a finitely generated module is flat if and only if it is projective. More generally, there is the following Local Flatness Criterion, stated here in slightly simplified form (see [Mat86, Section 22] for a self-contained proof): Theorem 1.1 ([Gro61, 10.2.2]).

  • Lectures on Local Cohomology
    Contemporary Mathematics Lectures on Local Cohomology Craig Huneke and Appendix 1 by Amelia Taylor Abstract. This article is based on five lectures the author gave during the summer school, In- teractions between Homotopy Theory and Algebra, from July 26–August 6, 2004, held at the University of Chicago, organized by Lucho Avramov, Dan Christensen, Bill Dwyer, Mike Mandell, and Brooke Shipley. These notes introduce basic concepts concerning local cohomology, and use them to build a proof of a theorem Grothendieck concerning the connectedness of the spectrum of certain rings. Several applications are given, including a theorem of Fulton and Hansen concern- ing the connectedness of intersections of algebraic varieties. In an appendix written by Amelia Taylor, an another application is given to prove a theorem of Kalkbrenner and Sturmfels about the reduced initial ideals of prime ideals. Contents 1.
