Einfache Kurvensingularitäten und torsionsfreie Moduln (Q801987): Difference between revisions

Let R be the complete local ring of a reduced curve singularity with algebraically closed residue field of characteristic 0. R is said to have finite Cohen-Macaulay (CM) type if there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules. The main result of the paper is that R has finite CM type if it dominates the local ring \(R'\) of a simple plane curve singularity in the sense of Arnol'd (i.e. of type \(A_ k\), \(D_ k\) or \(E_ 6\), \(E_ 7\), \(E_ 8)\). That \(R\) dominates \(R'\) means just that \(R'\subset R\subset \tilde R',\) where \(\tilde R'=\) normalization of \(R'\). As a corollary it is shown that if R itself is a plane curve singularity, then R is of finite CM type if R is simple. This result remains true for curves in arbitrary characteristic [\textit{K. Kiyek} and \textit{G. Steinke}, ''Einfache Kurvensingularitäten in beliebiger Charakteristik'', Arch. Math. (to appear; see the following review)] and for higher dimensional hypersurface singularities [cf. \textit{M. Artin} and \textit{J.-L. Verdier}, Math. Ann. 270, 79-82 (1985; Zbl 0553.14001), J. Auslander, Herzog and \textit{H. Esnault}, ''Reflexive modules on quotient surface singularities'', J. Reine Angew. Math. (to appear; Zbl 0553.14016) in dimension 2; H. Knörrer and R. Buchweitz, G.-M. Greuel and Schreyer (to appear) in higher dimensions].
