Let $(R,\fr m)$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The first result of this paper is to prove a vanishing theorem for generalized local cohomology modules which says that $H^j_I(M,N)=0$ for all $j>\dim(R)$, provided $M$ is of finite projective dimension. Next, we study and give characterizations for the least and the last integer $r$ such that $\Supp(H^r_I(M,N))$ is infinite.
In this paper we present a condition on a local Cohen-Macaulay F-injective ring of positive characteristic $p > 2$ which implies that its top local cohomology module with support in the maximal ideal has finitely many Frobenius compatible submodules.
We investigate Matlis duals of local cohomology modules and prove that, in general, their zeroth Bass number with respect to the zero ideal is not finite. We also prove that, somewhat surprisingly, if we apply local cohomology again (i. e. to the Matlis dual of the local cohomology module), we get (under certain hypotheses) either zero or $E$, an $R$-injective hull of the residue field of the local ring $R$.
Local cohomology modules, even over a Noetherian ring $R$, are typically unwieldly. As such, it is of interest whether or not they have finitely many associated primes. We prove the affirmative in the case where $R$ is a Stanley-Reisner ring over a field, whose associated simplicial complex is a $T$-space.
Let (R,m) be a complete local ring, a an ideal of R and M a finitely generated R-module. The aim of this paper is to show that for any non-negative integer n, the least integer i such that the i-th local cohomology with respect to a is not in dimension <n, is equal to the n-th finiteness dimension of M relative to a. This generalizes the main result of Quy and Brodmann-Lashgari.
The purpose of this paper is to give some equivalent conditions to the socle and Bass numbers' conjectures which raised by C. Huneke in (Problems on local cohomology, Free resolutions in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, Res. Notes Math. 1992, pp. 93-108). In addition, some results about certain Gorenstein ideals are included.
Cofiniteness of the generalized local cohomology modules Hai(M, N) of two R-modules M and N with respect to an ideal a is studied for some i,s with a specified property. Furthermore, Artinianness of Hbj 0(Hai(M, N)) is investigated by using the above result, in certain graded situations, where b 0 is an ideal of R 0 such that b 0 + a 0 is an m 0-primary ideal.
In this paper, we show that for an $F$-pure local ring $(R,\m)$, all local cohomology modules $H_{\m}^i(R)$ have finitely many Frobenius compatible submodules. This answers positively an open question raised by F.Enescu and M.Hochster. We also prove that if $(R,\m)$ is excellent and is $F$-pure on the punctured spectrum, then all local cohomology modules have finite length in the category of $R$-modules with Frobenius action. Finally, we show that the property that all $H_{\m}^(R)$ have finitely many Frobenius compatible submodules passes to localizations.
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module and $\mathfrak{a}$, $I$ and $J$ be ideals of $R$. We investigate the structure of formal local cohomology modules of $\mathfrak{F}^i_{\mathfrak{a},I,J}(M)$ and $\check{\mathfrak{F}}^i_{\mathfrak{a},I,J}(M)$ with respect to a pair of ideals, for all $i\geq 0$. The main subject of the paper is to study the finiteness properties and Artinianness of $\mathfrak{F}^i_{\mathfrak{a},I,J}(M)$ and $\check{\mathfrak{F}}^i_{\mathfrak{a},\mathfrak{m},J}(M)$. We study the maximum and minimum integer $i\in \…
Let $(R, \frak m)$ denote a local Cohen-Macaulay ring and $I$ a non-nilpotent ideal of $R$. The purpose of this article is to investigate Faltings' finiteness dimension $f_I(R)$ and equidimensionalness of certain homomorphic image of $R$. As a consequence we deduce that $f_I(R)={\rm max}\{1, {\rm ht}\ I\}$ and if ${\frak m}\mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ is cotained in Ass$_R(R)$, then the ring $R/ I+\cup_{n\geq 1}(0:_RI^n)$ is equidimensional of dimension $\dim R-1$. Moreover, we will obtain a lower bound for injective dimension of the local cohomology module $H^{{\rm ht}\ I}_I(R)$, in the case $(R, \fr…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$--module. Let $t$ be a non-negative integer such that $\H^i_\fa(M)$ is $\fa$--cofinite for all $i<t$. It is well--known that $\Hom_R(R/\fa,\H^t_\fa(M))$ is finitely generated $R$--module. In this paper we study the finiteness of $\Ext^1_R(R/\fa,\H^t_\fa(M))$ and $\Ext^2_R(R/\fa,\H^t_\fa(M))$.
Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian ring. Brodmann et al. defined and studied the concept of the local-global principle for annihilation of local cohomology modules at level $r\in\mathbb{N}$ for the ideals $\frak a$ and $\frak b$ of $R$. It was shown that this principle holds at levels 1,2, over $R$ and at all levels whenever $\dim R\leq 4$. The goal of this paper is to show that, if the set $\Ass_R(H_{\fa}^{f_{\fa}^{\fb}(M)}(M))$ is finite or $f_{\fa}(M)\neq c_{\fa}^{\fb}(M)$, then the local-global principle holds at all levels $r\in\mathbb{N}_0$, for all ideals $\fa, \fb$ of $R$ and each…
Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a local ring $(R,\fm)$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We investigate the structure of the formal local cohomology modules ${\vpl}_nH^i_{\fm}(M/\fa^n M)$, $i\geq 0$. We prove several results concerning finiteness properties of formal local cohomology modules which indicate that these modules behave very similar to local cohomology modules. Among other things, we prove that if $\dim R\leq 2$ or either $\fa$ is principal or $\dim R/\fa\leq 1$, then $\Tor_j^R(R/\fa,{\vpl}_nH^i_{\fm}(M/\fa^n M))$ is Artinian for all $i$ and $j$. Also, we examine the notion $\fgrad…
Let $R$ be a noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$, and $M$ an $R$--module. We prove that for a finite module $M$, if $\LC^{i}_{\fa}(M)$ is minimax for all $i\geq r\geq 1$, then $\LC^{i}_{\fa}(M)$ is artinian for $i\geq r$. A Local-global Principle for minimax local cohomology modules is shown. If $\LC^{i}_{\fa}(M)$ is coatomic for $i\leq r$ ($M$ finite) then $\LC^{i}_{\fa}(M)$ is finite for $i\leq r$. We give conditions for a module, which is locally minimax to be a minimax module. A non-vanishing theorem and some vanishing theorems are proved for local cohomology modules.
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with non-zero identity and $\fa$ an ideal of $R$. Let $M$ be a finite $R$--module of of finite projective dimension and $N$ an arbitrary finite $R$--module. We characterize the membership of the generalized local cohomology modules $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)$ in certain Serre subcategories of the category of modules from upper bounds. We define and study the properties of a generalization of cohomological dimension of generalized local cohomology modules. Let $\mathcal S$ be a Serre subcategory of the category of $R$--modules and $n \geqslant \pd M$ be an inte…
Let $(R,\m,k)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring of Krull dimension $d$. We prove that the cohomology annihilator $\ca(R)$ of $R$ is $\m$-primary if and only if for some $n\ge0$ the $n$-th syzygies in $\mod R$ are constructed from syzygies of $k$ by taking direct sums/summands and a fixed number of extensions. These conditions yield that $R$ is an isolated singularity such that the bounded derived category $\db(R)$ and the singularity category $\ds(R)$ have finite dimension, and the converse holds when $R$ is Gorenstein. We also show that the modules locally free on the punctured spectrum…
Let $R = \bigoplus_{n \in \mathbb{N}_0} R_n$ be a Noetherian homogeneous ring with local base ring $(R_0, \mathfrak{m}_0)$ and let $M$ and $N$ be finitely generated graded $R$-modules. Let $i,j\in\mathbb{N}_0$. In this paper we will study Artinianess of $Γ_{\mathfrak m_0R}(H_{R_+}^i(M,N)), H_{\mathfrak m_0R}^1(H_{R_+}^i(M,N)), H_{R_+}^i(M,N)/{\mathfrak m_0}H_{R_+}^i(M,N), H_{R_+}^j(M,H_{\mathfrak m_0R}^i(N)), H_{\mathfrak m_0R}^j(M,H_{R_+}^i(N))$, where $R_+$ denotes the irrelevant ideal of $R$.
In this article, we study the behaviour of smooth algebra $R$ over local Noetherian local ring $A$. At first, we observe that for every $f\in R$, $R_f$ has finite length in the category of $D(R,A)$-module if dimension of $A$ is zero. This extends the result of Theorem 2 of \cite{Ly3}. We use this fact to generalize the result of Theorem 4.1 of \cite{BBLSZ}, from the finiteness of the set of associated primes of local cohomology module to that of Lyubeznik functor. Finally, we introduce the definition of $Σ$-finite $D$-modulue for smooth algebra and we extend the result of Theorem 1.3 of \cite{…
Let $\frak a$ denote an ideal in a regular local (Noetherian) ring $R$ and let $N$ be a finitely generated $R$-module with support in $V(\frak a)$. The purpose of this paper is to show that all homomorphic images of the $R$-modules $\Ext^j_R(N, H^i_{\frak a}(R))$ have only finitely many associated primes, for all $i, j\geq 0$, whenever $\dim R \leq4$ or $\dim R/ \frak a \leq 3$ and $R$ contains a field. In addition, we show that if $\dim R=5$ and $R$ contains a field, then the $R$-modules $\Ext^j_R(N, H^i_{\frak a}(R))$ have only finitely many associated primes, for all $i, j\geq 0$.
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with non-zero identity, $\mathfrak{a}$ and ideal of $R$, $M$ a finite $R$--module, and $n$ a non-negative integer. In this paper, for an arbitrary $R$--module $X$ which is not necessarily finite, we study the finiteness dimension $f_\mathfrak{a}(M,X)$ and the $n$-th finiteness dimension $f^n_\mathfrak{a}(M,X)$ of $M$ and $X$ with respect to $\mathfrak{a}$. Assume that $\operatorname{Ext}^{i}_{R}(R/\mathfrak{a},X)$ is finite for all $i\leq f^2_\mathfrak{a}(M,X)$ (resp. $i< f^1_\mathfrak{a}(M,X)$). We show that $\operatorname{H}^{i}_{\mathfrak{a}}(M,X)$ i…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ and $M,N$ finite $R$--modules. We prove that the following statements are equivalent. \begin{enumerate} \item[(i)] $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)$ is finite for all $i< n$. \item[(ii)] $\Coass_R(\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)) \subset \V{(\fa)}$ for all $i< n$. \item[(iii)] $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)$ is coatomic for all $i< n$. \end{enumerate} If $\pd M$ is finite and $r$ be a non-negative integer such that $r>\pd M$ and $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)$ is finite (resp. minimax) for all $i\geq r$, then $\lc^{i}_{\fa}(M,N)$ is zero (resp. artinian) for all $i\geq r$.
Let $R$ be a commutative $F$-algebra, where $F$ is a field of characteristic 0, satisfying the following conditions: $R$ is equidimensional of dimension $n$, every residual field with respect to a maximal ideal is an algebraic extension of $F,$ and $\Der_F (R)$ is a finitely generated projective $R$-module of rank $n$ such that $R_m\otimes_R \Der_F (R)=\Der_F(R_m)$. We show that the associated graded ring of the ring of differentiable operators, $D(R,F)$, is a commutative Noetherian regular with unity and pure graded dimension equal to $2\dim(R)$. Moreover, we prove that $D(R,F)$ has weak glob…
Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian (not necessarily local) ring, $\frak a$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. The purpose of this paper is to show that $f^n_{\frak a}(M)=\inf \{0\leq i\in\mathbb{Z}|\, \dim H^{i}_{\frak a}(M)/N \geq n\, \, \text{for any finitely generated submodule}\,\, N \subseteq H^{i}_{\frak a}(M)\}$, where $n$ is a non-negative integer and the invariant $f^n_{\frak a}(M):=\inf\{f_{\frak a R_{\frak p}}(M_{\frak p})\,\,|\,\,{\frak p}\in \Supp M/\frak a M\,\,{\rm and}\,\,\dim R/{\frak p}\geq n\}$ is the $n$-th finiteness dimension of $M$ relative to …
Auslander conjectured that every Artin algebra satisfies a certain condition on vanishing of cohomology of finitely generated modules. The failure of this conjecture - by a 2003 counterexample due to Jorgensen and Sega - motivates the consideration of the class of rings that do satisfy Auslander's condition. We call them AC rings and show that an AC Artin algebra that is left-Gorenstein is also right-Gorenstein. Furthermore, the Auslander-Reiten Conjecture is proved for AC rings, and Auslander's G-dimension is shown to be functorial for AC rings that are commutative or have a dualizing complex…
Let \fa be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R and M a finitely generated R-module. We explore the behavior of the two notions f_{\fa}(M), the finiteness dimension of M with respect to \fa, and, its dual notion q_{\fa}(M), the Artinianess dimension of M with respect to \fa. When (R,\fm) is local and r:=f_{\fa}(M) is less than f_{\fa}^{\fm}(M), the \fm-finiteness dimension of M relative to \fa, we prove that H^r_{\fa}(M) is not Artinian, and so the filter depth of \fa on M doesn't exceeds f_{\fa}(M). Also, we show that if M has finite dimension and H^i_{\fa}(M) is Artinian for all i>t, …
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $\fa$ an ideal of $R$. We intend to establish the dual of two Faltings' Theorems for local homology modules of an Artinian module. As a consequence of this, we show that, if $A$ is an Artinian module over semi-local complete ring $R$ and $j$ is an integer such that $H_i^{\fa}(A)$ is Artinian for all $i<j$, then the set $\Coass_R(H_j^{\fa}(A))$ is finite. We also introduce the notion of the $n$th Artinianness dimension $g_n^\fa(A)=\inf\{g^{\fa R_{\fp}}(^\fp A): \fp\in\Spec(R) \ \ \text{and} \ \ \dim R/\fp\geq n\}$, for all $n\in\mathbb{N}_{0}$ and pr…
Through a study of torsion functors of local cohomology modules we improve some non-finiteness results on the top non-zero local cohomology modules with respect to an ideal.
In this paper, we continue the study of cominimaxness modules with respect to an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring (cf. \cite{ANV}), and Bass numbers of local cohomology modules. Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. We first show that the Bass numbers $μ^0(\frak p, H^2_I(R))$ and $μ^1(\frak p, H^2_I(R))$ are finite for all $\frak p\in \Spec R$, whenever $R$ is regular. As a consequence, it follows that the Goldie dimension of $H^2_I(R)$ is finite. Also, for a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of dimension $d$, it is shown that the Bass numbers of $H^…
Let $(R,\frak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $N$ a finitely generated $R$-module. Let $k{\ge}-1$ be an integer and $ r=\depth_k(I,N)$ the length of a maximal $N$-sequence in dimension $>k$ in $I$ defined by M. Brodmann and L. T. Nhan ({Comm. Algebra, 36 (2008), 1527-1536). For a subset $S\subseteq \Spec R$ we set $S_{{\ge}k}={\p\in S\mid\dim(R/\p){\ge}k}$. We first prove in this paper that $\Ass_R(H^j_I(N))_{\ge k}$ is a finite set for all $j{\le}r$}. Let $\fN=\oplus_{n\ge 0}N_n$ be a finitely generated graded $\fR$-module, where $\fR$ is a finitely generated standard…
This is an expanded version of a lecture on finiteness properties of local cohomology modules given at the 48th Algebra Symposium held at Nagoya University in August 2003.
In this paper, some results on vanishing and non-vanishing of generalized local cohomology modules are presented and some relations between those modules and, Ext and ordinary local cohomology modules are studied. Also, several cofiniteness propositions for generalized local cohomology modules are established which, among other things, provide an alternative answer to a question in [Y2].
We study the behaviour of the finiteness of the set of associated primes of local cohomology modules, more generally of Lyubeznik functors, under various ring extensions. At first, we review the results for flat and faithfully flat extensions and we present new applications of them. Then, we focus how the finiteness property of the set of associated primes of local cohomology modules and Lyubeznik functors is transferred from extended ring to the base ring of pure and cyclically pure ring extensions. We show that finiteness property can be transferred from a ring to its pure local subring and …
For a finite module $M$ over a local, equicharacteristic ring $(R,m)$, we show that the well-known formula $\cohdim(m,M)=\dim M$ becomes trivial if ones uses Matlis duals of local cohomology modules together with spectral sequences. We also prove a new, ring-theoretic vanishing criterion for local cohomology modules.
It is proved that if one of the finite modules M and N, over a local ring R, has reducible complexity and has finite Gorenstein dimension then the depth formula holds, provided TorR_i(M,N) = 0 for i>>0. We also study the vanishing of cohomology of a module of finite complete intersection dimension.
Let R be a complete intersection ring and let M and N be R-modules. It is shown that the vanishing of Ext^i_R(M,N) for a certain number of consecutive values of i starting at n forces the complete intersection dimension of M to be at most n-1. We also estimate the complete intersection dimension of the dual of M, in terms of vanishing of the cohomology modules, Ext^i_R(M,N).
We examine local cohomology in the setting of valuation rings. The novelty of this investigation stems from the fact that valuation rings are usually non-Noetherian, whereas local cohomology has been extensively developed mostly in a Noetherian setting. We prove various vanishing results on local cohomology for valuation rings of finite Krull dimension. These vanishing results stem from a uniform bound on the global dimension of such rings. Our investigation reveals differences in the sheaf theoretic definition of local cohomology, and the algebraic definition in terms of a limit of certain Ex…
In this paper, we prove several results on the finiteness of local cohomology of polynomial and formal power series rings. In particular, we give a partial affirmative answer for a question of L. Núñez-Betancourt in [J. Algebra 399 (2014), 770--781].
We investigate symmetry in the vanishing of Tate cohomology for finitely generated modules over local Gorenstein rings. For finitely generated R-modules M and N over Gorenstein local ring R, it is shown that $\widehat{Ext}^i_R(M,N)=0$ for all $i\in\mathbb{Z}$ if and only if $\widehat{Ext}^i_R(N,M)=0$ for all $i\in\mathbb{Z}$.
We generalize some known results on the relation between the cohomological and projective dimension. Then we examine the set-theoretically Cohen-Macaulay ideals to find some cohomological characterization of these kind of ideals.
We prove that if M, N are finite modules over a Gorenstein local ring R of codimension at most 4, then the vanishing of Ext^n_R(M,N) for n\gg 0 is equivalent to the vanishing of Ext^n_R(N,M) for n\gg 0. Furthermore, if the completion of $R$ has no embedded deformation, then such vanishing occurs if and only if M or N has finite projective dimension.
Let $\fa$ be an ideal of a Noetherian local ring $(R,\fm)$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. In this paper we introduce some criterions on Artinianness of formal local cohomology, in particular vanishing and finiteness of local cohomology modules. We find out the lower and upper bound for Artinianness of formal local cohomology
We study the deformation-obstruction theory of Koszul cohomology groups of $g^r_d$'s on singular nodal curves. We compute the obstruction classes for Koszul cohomology classes on singular curves to deform to a smooth one. In the case the obstructions are nontrivial, we obtain some partial results for generic vanishing of Koszul cohomology groups.
In this paper, we prove some well-known results on local cohomology with respect to a pair of ideals in graded version, such as, Independence Theorem, Lichtenbaum-Harshorne Vanishing Theorem, Basic Finiteness and Vanishing Theorem, among others. Besides, we present a generalized version of Melkersson Theorem about Artinianess of modules and a result concerning Artinianess of local cohomology modules.
Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a ring of polynomials over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. There is an algorithm due to Lyubeznik for deciding the vanishing of local cohomology modules $H^i_I(R)$ where $I\subset R$ is an ideal. This algorithm has not been implemented because its complexity grows very rapidly with the growth of $p$ which makes it impractical. In this paper we produce a modification of this algorithm that consumes a modest amount of memory.
In this paper, considering the difference between the finiteness dimension and cohomological dimension for a finitely generated module, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of grades of components of graded local cohomology modules with respect to irrelevant ideal; as long as we study some artinian and tameness property of such modules.
We provide bounds on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity in terms of ``defining equations'' by using elements that annihilates some cohomology modules, inspired by works of Miyazaki, Nagel, Schenzel and Vogel. The elements in these annihilators are provided either by liaison or by tight closure theories. Our results hold in any characteristic.
Let $\fa$ denote an ideal of a $d$-dimensional Gorenstein local ring $R$ and $M$ and $N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules with $\pd M< \infty$. It is shown that $H^d_{\fa}(M,N)=0$ if and only if $\dim \hat{R}\big/ \fa\hat{R}+\fp>0$ for all $\fp\in\Ass_{\hat{R}}\hat{M}\cap\Supp_{\hat{R}}\hat{N}$.
A 2003 counterexample to a conjecture of Auslander brought attention to a family of rings - colloquially called AC rings - that satisfy a natural condition on vanishing of cohomology. Several results attest to the remarkable homological properties of AC rings, but their definition is barely operational, and it remains unknown if they form a class that is closed under typical constructions in ring theory. In this paper, we study transfer of the AC property along local homomorphisms of Cohen--Macaulay rings. In particular, we show that the AC property is preserved by standard procedures in local…
We prove a versions of amplitude inequalities of Iversen, Foxby and Iyengar, and Frankild and Sather-Wagstaff that replace finite generation conditions with adic finiteness conditions. As an application, we prove that a local ring $R$ of prime characteristic is regular if and only if for some proper ideal $\mathfrak b$ the derived local cohomology complex $\mathbf{R}Γ_{\mathfrak{b}}(R)$ has finite flat dimension when viewed through some positive power of the Frobenius endomorphism.
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring that is a smooth $\mathbb Z$-algebra. For each ideal $I$ of $R$ and integer $k$, we prove that the local cohomology module $H^k_I(R)$ has finitely many associated prime ideals. This settles a crucial outstanding case of a conjecture of Lyubeznik asserting this finiteness for local cohomology modules of all regular rings.
