Homological algebra and module theory constitute a vibrant area of contemporary mathematics, interweaving concepts from algebra, topology and geometry. At its core, homological algebra studies chain ...

In this paper we show that the Rees algebra can be made into a functor on modules over a ring in a way that extends its classical definition for ideals. The Rees algebra of a module M may be computed ...

The Virasoro vertex algebra arises as the symmetry algebra of a two-dimensional conformal field theory. The Virasoro irreducible modules are well-known, and they play a prominent role in rational ...

We introduce and study the concept of α-short modules (a 0-short module is just a short module, i.e., for each submodule N of a module M, either N or $\frac{\mathrm{M}}{\mathrm{N}}$ is Noetherian).
