Commutative ring extensions defined by perfect-like conditions (Q6078109)

Let \(R\) be a commutative ring with identity. Recall that a ring \(R\) is \(n\)-perfect if every flat \(R\)-module has projective dimension less than or equal to \(n\); and strongly \(n\)-perfect if any \(R\)-module of flat dimension less than or equal to \(n\) has a projective dimension less than or equal to \(n\). Purkait defined a ring \(R\) to be \(n\)-semiperfect if \(\overline{R} = R/ \mathrm{Rad}(R)\) is semisimple and \(n\)-potent lift modulo \(\mathrm{Rad}(R)\). In the paper under review, the authors investigated the transfer the following three classes of rings: \(n\)-perfect, strongly \(n\)-perfect, and \(n\)-semiperfect rings to amalgamations of algebras along ideals with an aim to construct examples of \(n\)-perfect rings that are not strongly \(n\)-perfect, strongly \(n\)-perfect rings that are not perfect, and \(n\)-semiperfect rings that are not semiperfect.
