Weak and Serre Lifting of Cyclic Modules and the Liftability of Auslander Transposes
Abstract
Let Q be a local ring, f a nonzerodivisor, and R=Q/(f). We characterize weak and Serre liftability of cyclic R-modules under suitable hypotheses, obtaining complete-intersection criteria for Serre liftability in small height. We prove that the tensor product of two weakly liftable cyclic modules remains weakly liftable when their first Tor module vanishes, and give sufficient conditions for tensor products to preserve Serre liftability. We construct an Artinian Gorenstein quotient Q/I, with Q regular, that is perfect over R and Serre liftable but not weakly liftable to Q, showing that the negative answer to a question of Jorgensen persists in this more restrictive setting. Finally, we characterize when a lift induces a lift of the Auslander transpose and obtain a freeness criterion related to the Auslander-Reiten conjecture, recovering a theorem of Ghosh and Samanta.
