Coherent ring

In mathematics, a (left) coherent ring is a ring in which every finitely generated left ideal is finitely presented. Many theorems about finitely generated modules over Noetherian rings can be extended to finitely presented modules over coherent rings. Every left Noetherian ring is left coherent. The ring of polynomials in an infinite number of variables over a left Noetherian ring is an example of a left coherent ring that is not left Noetherian. A ring is left coherent if and only if every direct product of flat right modules is flat , . Compare this to: A ring is left Noetherian if and only if every direct sum of injective left modules is injective.

Spaces With Noetherian Cohomology

Jérôme Scherer

Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? In this paper we provide, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens-Venkov Theorem. W ...

Flat module

In algebra, flat modules include free modules, projective modules, and, over a principal ideal domain, torsion free modules. Formally, a module M over a ring R is flat if taking the tensor product over R with M preserves exact sequences. A module is faithfully flat if taking the tensor product with a sequence produces an exact sequence if and only if the original sequence is exact. Flatness was introduced by in his paper Géometrie Algébrique et Géométrie Analytique.
