Representation-theoretic properties of balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules

, then it is fully decomposable, i.e. it is a direct sum of finitely generated modules. While the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture fails in general by a counterexample of Dieterich dealing with multiplicities to measure the size of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules, our formalism establishes the validity of the conjecture for complete Cohen-Macaulay local rings. In addition, the pure-semisimplicity of a subcategory of balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules is settled. Namely, it is shown that

R

is of finite

C M

-type if and only if the category of all fully decomposable balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules is closed under kernels of epimorphisms. Finally, we examine the mentioned results in the context of Cohen-Macaulay artin algebras admitting a dualizing bimodule

, as defined by Auslander and Reiten. It will turn out that,

-Gorenstein projective modules with bounded

-support are fully decomposable. In particular, a Cohen-Macaulay algebra

L a m b d a

is of finite

C M

-type if and only if every

-Gorenstein projective module is of finite

C M

-type, which generalizes a result of Chen for Gorenstein algebras. Our main tool in the proof of results is Gabriel-Roiter (co)measure, an invariant assigned to modules of finite length, and defined by Gabriel and Ringel. This, in fact, provides an application of the Gabriel-Roiter (co)measure in the category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules.

Review text

Let $(R,\mathfrak m, k)$ be a complete Cohen-Macaulay local ring. Following Hochster, we say that a not necessarily finitely generated $R$-module $M$ is \textit{big Cohen-Macaulay} if there exists a system of parameters of $R$ which is an $M$-regular sequence. Sharp called a big Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module $M$ \textit{(weak) balanced big Cohen-Macaulay} if every system of parameters of $R$ is an (a weak) $M$-regular sequence. This paper studies when a given balanced big Cohen-Macaulay module is a direct sum of finitely generated modules; when every balanced big Cohen-Macaulay module is so; analogues of the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture for modules; and analogous results for $\omega$-Gorenstein projective modules over Cohen-Macaulay artin algebras. They introduce a numerical invariant, the $\underline{h}$-length, for any balanced big Cohen-Macaulay module, and prove that if $M$ has an $\mathfrak m$-primary cohomological annihilator and if there is a bound on the $\underline{h}$-length of all modules appearing in CM-support of $M$, then it is a direct sum of finitely generated modules. Also, the pure-semisimplicity of a subcategory of balanced big Cohen-Macaulay modules is settled. Finally, the authors examine these results in the context of Cohen-Macaulay artin algebras admitting a dualizing bimodule $\omega$, as defined by Auslander and Reiten.
