The two are not comparable. The senate was not an elected body. During the period of the Roman Republic (509-27 BC) it was composed of patricians (aristocrats) and former executive officers of state. It was not a legislative body either. In the Early Republic, bills were proposed by the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the Republic) and were voted on by the soldiers gathered in the Assembly of the Soldiers. Later in the Republic the plebeian tribunes (the representatives of the plebeians, the commoners) became the proposers of bills and the Plebeian Council (the assembly of the commoners) became the legislative body. There were five types of executive officers of state who were all elected. They acted independently within the remit of their office. There was not a centralised executive, like a cabinet or an administration.

During the subsequent period of rule by emperors (27 BC-476 AD) the emperors were absolute rulers.

What type of government was created when Diocletian divided the Roman Empire into 4 units each with its own ruler and how does this compare to US divisions of power between state and local government?

The type of government was the tetrarchy (rule by four). Each of the four parts of the empire was headed by one of four co-emperors, two senior ones (Augusti) and to junior ones (Caesars). The system was the opposite of that of the US, where the states have a large degree of autonomy from the central government. One of the purposes of Diocletian's system was to increase the control of the central government over the governors of the provinces of the Roman Empire.
