Faltings' annihilator theorem is an important result in local cohomology theory. Recently, Doustimehr and Naghipour generalized the Falitings' annihilator theorem. They proved that if $R$ is a homomorphic image of a Gorenstein ring, then $f_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n = λ_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n$, where $f_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n := \inf\{i \in \mathbb{N} \mid \operatorname{dim}{\operatorname{Supp}(\mathfrak{b}^t H_\mathfrak{a}^i(M))} \geq n \text{ for all } t\in \mathbb{N}\}$ and $λ_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n := \inf\{λ_{\mathfrak{a} R_\mathfrak{p}}^{\mathfrak{b} R_\mathfrak{p}}(M_\mathfrak{p}) \mid \mathfrak{p}\in\operatorname{Spec}{R} \text{ with } \operatorname{dim}{R/\mathfrak{p}} \geq n\}$. In this paper, we study the relation between $f_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n$ and $λ_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n$, and prove that if $R$ is an almost Cohen-Macaulay ring, then $f_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n \geq λ_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n - \operatorname{cmd}{R}$. Using this result, we prove that if $R$ is a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay ring, then $f_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n = λ_\mathfrak{a}^\mathfrak{b}(M)_n$.
In the present article, the author shows that Faltings' annihilator theorem holds for any Noetherian ring $A$ if $A$ is universally catenary; all the formal fibers of all the localizations of $A$ are Cohen-Macaulay; and the Cohen-Macaulay locus of each finitely generated $A$-algebra is open.
Let $\mathcal{Z}$ be a specialization closed subset of $\Spec R$ and $X$ a homologically left-bounded complex with finitely generated homologies. We establish Faltings' Local-global Principle and Annihilator Theorems for the local cohomology modules {$\H_{\mathcal{Z}^i(X).$ }} Our versions contain variations of results already known on these theorems.
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and let $n$ be a non-negative integer. In this article, by using the theory of Gorenstein dimensions, it is shown that whenever $R$ is a homomorphic image of a Noetherian Gorenstein ring, then the invariants $\inf\{i\in\nat_0|\, {\dim\Supp}(\fb^tH_{\fa}^i(M))\geq n\text{for all} t\in\nat_0\}$ and $\inf\{λ_{\fa R_{\p}}^{\fb R_{\p}}(M_{\p})|\,\p\in {\rm Spec} \, R \text{and} \dim R/ \p\geq n\}$ are equal, for every finitely generated $R$-module $M$ and for every ideals $\frak a, \frak b$ of $R$ with $\frak b\subseteq \frak a$. This generalizes the Falting…
In this paper, we prove Faltings' annihilator theorem for complexes over a CM-excellent ring. As an application, we give a complete classification of the t-structures of the bounded derived category of finitely generated modules over a CM-excellent ring of finite Krull dimension.
The aim of this paper is to study a deep connection between local cohomology annihilators and Macaulayfication and arithmetic Macaulayfication over a local ring. Local cohomology annihilators appear through the notion of p-standard system of parameters. For a local ring, we prove an equivalence of the existence of Macaulayfications; the existence of a p-standard system of parameters; being a quotient of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring; and the verification of Faltings' Annihilator theorem. For a finitely generated module which is unmixed and faithful, we prove an equivalence of the existence of an…
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, $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module and $n$ be a non-negative integer. In this article, it is shown that there is a finitely generated submodule $N_i$ of $H_{\frak a}^i(M)$ such that $\dim{\rm Supp } H_{\frak a}^i(M)/N_i<n$ for all $i<t$ if and only if there is a finitely generated submodule $N_{i,{\frak p}}$ of $H_{{\frak a} R_{\frak p}}^i(M_{\frak p})$ such that $\dim{\rm Supp } H_{{\frak a} R_{\frak p}}^i(M_{\frak p})/N_{i,{\frak p}}<n$ for all $i<t$. This generalizes Faltings' Local-global Principle for the finiteness of local cohomology modules (F…
In this paper, we compare annihilators of Tor and Ext modules of finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring. For local Cohen--Macaulay rings, one of our results refines a theorem of Dao and Takahashi.
Using the theory of cohomology annihilators, we define a family of topologies on the set of isomorphism classes of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over a Gorenstein ring. We study compactness of these topologies.
Let A be a Noetherian ring. It is shown that any finite A--module M of finite Krull dimension with finite Cousin complex cohomologies has a uniform local cohomological annihilator. The converse is also true for a finite module M satisfying (S_2) which is over a local ring with Cohen--Macaulay formal fibres.
This paper investigates when local cohomology modules have an annihilator that does not depend on the choice of an ideal. Takahashi classified the dominant resolving subcategories of the category of finitely generated modules over a commutative Noetherian ring. We show that his classification theorem describes annihilation results of local cohomology modules over a finite-dimensional ring with certain assumptions or a Cohen-Macaulay ring.
The aim of this paper is to study the theory of cohomology annihilators over commutative Gorenstein rings. We adopt a triangulated category point of view and study the annihilation of stable category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules. We prove that in dimension one the cohomology annihilator ideal and the conductor ideal coincide under mild assumptions. We present a condition on a ring homomorphism between Gorenstein rings which allows us to carry the cohomology annihilator of the domain to that of the codomain. As an application, we generalize the Milnor-Jung formula for algebraic curves to t…
To reduce to resolving Cohen-Macaulay singularities, Faltings initiated the program of "Macaulayfying" a given Noetherian scheme $X$. For a wide class of $X$, Kawasaki built the sought Cohen-Macaulay modifications, with a crucial drawback that his blowups did not preserve the locus $\mathrm{CM}(X) \subset X$ where $X$ is already Cohen-Macaulay. We extend Kawasaki's methods to show that every quasi-excellent, Noetherian scheme $X$ has a Cohen-Macaulay $\widetilde{X}$ with a proper map $\widetilde{X} \rightarrow X$ that is an isomorphism over $\mathrm{CM}(X)$. This completes Faltings' program, r…
We relate the annihilators of graded components of the canonical module of a graded Cohen-Macaulay ring to colon ideals of powers of the homogeneous maximal ideal. In particular, we connect them to the core of the maximal ideal. An application of our results characterizes Cayley-Bacharach sets of points in terms of the structure of the core of the maximal ideal of their homogeneous coordinate ring. In particular, we show that a scheme is Cayley-Bacharach if and only if the core is a power of the maximal ideal.
In this thesis, the class of modules whose Cousin complexes have finitely generated cohomologies are studied as a subclass of modules which have uniform local cohomological annihilators and it is shown that these two classes coincide over local rings with Cohen-Macaulay formal fibres. This point of view enables us to obtain some properties of modules with finite Cousin complexes and find some characterizations of them. In this connection we discuss attached prime ideals of certain local cohomology modules in terms of cohomologies of Cousin complexes. In continuation, we study the top local coh…
In this paper, we study the properties of noetherian rings with uniform annihilators. It turns out that all these rings should be universally catenary and locally equidimensional. We will give a necessary and sufficient condition for these rings, which enable us to prove that if a ring R is the image of a Cohen-Macaulay ring of finite dimension, then R has a uniform annihilator of local cohomology. Moreover, we will give a positive answer to the conjecture [Hu, Conjecture 2.13] about the excellent rings with dimension no more than 5.
This paper is concerned with the tight closure of an ideal in a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$ of prime characteristic $p$. Several authors, including R. Fedder, K.-i. Watanabe, K. E. Smith, N. Hara and F. Enescu, have used the natural Frobenius action on the top local cohomology module of such an $R$ to good effect in the study of tight closure, and this paper uses that device. The main part of the paper develops a theory of what are here called 'special annihilator submodules' of a left module over the Frobenius skew polynomial ring associated to $R$; this theory is then applied in th…
The notion of Macaulayfication, which is analogous of the desingularization, was introduced by Faltings in 1978 and he construct a Macaulayfication of quasi-projective scheme whose non-Cohen-Macaulay locus is of dimension 0 or 1 by a characteristic free method. In this paper, we gave a Macaulayfication of a quasi-projective scheme whose non-Cohen-Macaulay locus is of dimension 2. Of course out method is independent of the characteristic.
This paper studies Frobenius powers of parameter ideals in a commutative Noetherian local ring $R$ of prime characteristic $p$. For a given ideal $\fa$ of $R$, there is a power $Q$ of $p$, depending on $\fa$, such that the $Q$-th Frobenius power of the Frobenius closure of $\fa$ is equal to the $Q$-th Frobenius power of $\fa$. The paper addresses the question as to whether there exists a {\em uniform} $Q_0$ which `works' in this context for all parameter ideals of $R$ simultaneously. In a recent paper, Katzman and Sharp proved that there does exists such a uniform $Q_0$ when $R$ is Cohen--Maca…
Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. It is shown that if $M$ is relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to an ideal $\frak a$ of $R$, then $\text{Ann}_R(H_{\mathfrak{a}}^{\text{cd}(\mathfrak{a}, M)}(M))=\text{Ann}_RM/L=\text{Ann}_RM$ and $\text{Ass}_R(R/\text{Ann}_RM)\subseteq \{\mathfrak{p} \in \text{Ass}_R M|\,{\rm cd}(\mathfrak{a}, R/\mathfrak{p})=\text{cd}(\mathfrak{a}, M)\},$ where $L$ is the largest submodule of $M$ such that ${\rm cd}(\mathfrak{a}, L)< {\rm cd}(\mathfrak{a}, M)$. We also show that if $H^{\dim M}_{\mathfrak{a}}(M)=0$, then $\text{Att}_…
The classical "generalized principal ideal theorems" of Macaulay, Eagon-Northcott, and others give sharp bounds on the heights of determinantal ideals in arbitrary rings. But in regular local rings (or graded polynomial rings) these are far from sharp, and various questions about vector bundles, as well as other questions in commutative algebra, amount to asking what the real bounds are. We give partial answers, and more generally we prove new height bounds in local rings of given embedding codimension. Our theorems extend and sharpen results of Faltings and Bruns.
Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring. As an analogue of the notion of the dimension of a triangulated category defined by Rouquier, the notion of the dimension of a subcategory of finitely generated R-modules is introduced in this paper. We found evidence that certain categories over nice singularities have small dimensions. When R is Cohen-Macaulay, under a mild assumption it is proved that finiteness of the dimension of the full subcategory consisting of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules which are locally free on the punctured spectrum is equivalent to saying that R is an isolated singu…
