scholarly journals A Theorem About Maximal Cohen–Macaulay Modules

Abstract It is shown that for any local strongly $F$-regular ring there exists natural number $e_0$ so that if $M$ is any finitely generated maximal Cohen–Macaulay module, then the pushforward of $M$ under the $e_0$th iterate of the Frobenius endomorphism contains a free summand. Consequently, the torsion subgroup of the divisor class group of a local strongly $F$-regular ring is finite.

AbstractLet M be a commutative cancellative atomic monoid. We consider the behaviour of the asymptotic length functions and on M. If M is finitely generated and reduced, then we present an algorithm for the computation of both and where x is a nonidentity element of M. We also explore the values that the functions and can attain when M is a Krull monoid with torsion divisor class group, and extend a well-known result of Zaks and Skula by showing how these values can be used to characterize when M is half-factorial.

AbstractWe consider the factorization properties of block monoids on $\mathbb{Z}_n$ determined by subsets of the form $S_a=\{\bar{1},\bar{a}\}$. We denote such a block monoid by $\mathcal{B}_a(n)$. In §2, we provide a method based on the division algorithm for determining the irreducible elements of $\mathcal{B}_a(n)$. Section 3 offers a method to determine the elasticity of $\mathcal{B}_a(n)$ based solely on the cross number. Section 4 applies the results of §3 to investigate the complete set of elasticities of Krull monoids with divisor class group $\mathbb{Z}_n$.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 20M14; 20D60; 13F05
