If V is a faithful module for a finite group G over a field of characteristic p, then the ring of invariants need not be Cohen᎐Macaulay if p divides the order of G. In this article the cohomology of G is used to study the question of Cohen᎐Macaulayness of the invariant ring. One of the results is a

✦ Synopsis
We investigate the transfer of the Cohen᎐Macaulay property from a commutative ring to a subring of invariants under the action of a finite group. Our point of view is ring theoretic and not a priori tailored to a particular type of group action. As an illustration, we discuss the special case of multiplicative actions, that is, w n x n actions on group algebras k ޚ via an action on ޚ .

## dedicated to professor klaus w. roggenkamp on the occasion of his 60th birthday We introduce a concept of Cohen-Macaulayness for left noetherian semilocal rings (and their modules) which generalizes the corresponding notion of commutative algebra and naturally applies to orders.
Let G be a digraph, that is, a pair of sets consisting of a set of vertices Ž . and a set of directed edges for a more precise definition, see Section 3 . It is an interesting problem to know how to count the Hamilton cycles of G, that is, cycles containing all vertices of G. In this paper, we will
Let R, m be a local Cohen᎐Macaulay ring whose m-adic completion R has an isolated singularity. We verify the following conjecture of F.-O. Schreyer: R has finite Cohen᎐Macaulay type if and only if R has finite Cohen᎐Macaulay type. We ww xx Ž . also show that the hypersurface k x , . . . , x r f has
Numerical invariants which measure the Cohen Macaulay character of homomorphisms .: R Ä S of noetherian rings are introduced and studied. Comprehensive results are obtained for homomorphisms which are locally of finite flat dimension. They provide a point of view from which a variety of phenomena re
