Reflexive modules over the endomorphism algebras of reflexive trace ideals

Abstract

In the present paper we investigate reflexive modules over the endomorphism algebras of reflexive trace ideals in a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring. The main theorem generalizes both of the results of S. Goto, N. Matsuoka, and T. T. Phuong ([20, Theorem 5.1]) and T. Kobayashi ([30, Theorem 1.3]) concerning the endomorphism algebra of its maximal ideal. We also explore the question of when the category of reflexive modules is of finite type, i.e., the base ring has only finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable reflexive modules. We show that, if the category is of finite type, the ring is analytically unramified and has only finitely many Ulrich ideals. As a consequence, Arf local rings contain only finitely many Ulrich ideals once the normalization is a local ring.
