Matlis duality is a concept in commutative algebra that establishes a relationship between a finitely generated module over a Noetherian ring and its Matlis dual. This duality highlights the interplay between the structure of modules and their dual spaces, especially within the context of Gorenstein and Cohen-Macaulay rings, revealing deeper connections between them through the concept of injective modules and their role in understanding homological dimensions.
