Auslander-Buchweitz Approximations of Equivariant Modules [Paperback]

This book, first piblished in 2000, contains research on commutative ring theory and representation theory.This book focuses on homological aspects of equivariant modules. It presents a new homological approximation theory in the category of equivariant modules, unifying the Cohen-Macaulay approximations in commutative ring theory and Ringel's theory of delta-good approximations for quasi-hereditary algebras and reductive groups. It also provides detailed introduction to homological algebra, commutative ring theory and homological theory of comodules of co-algebras over an arbitrary base. The book is primarily aimed at researchers but will also be suitable for graduate students.This book focuses on homological aspects of equivariant modules.

The book provides a detailed introduction to homological algebra, commutative ring theory and homological theory of comodules of coalgebras over an arbitrary base. It aims to overcome the difficulty of generalizing known homological results in representation theory.Introduction; Conventions and terminology; Part I. Background Materials: 1.
