On injective and Gorenstein injective dimensions of local cohomology modules

Let $(R,\fm)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and let $M$ be an $R$-module which is a relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to a proper ideal $\fa$ of $R$ and set $n:=\h_{M}\fa$. We prove that $\ind M<\infty$ if and only if \ind\H^{n}_\fa(M)<\infty and that \ind\H^{n}_\fa(M)=\ind M-n. We also prove that if $R$ has a dualizing complex and $\Gid_{R} M<\infty$, then \Gid_{R}\H^{n}_\fa(M)<\infty and \Gid_{R}\H^{n}_\fa(M)=\Gid_{R} M-n. Moreover if $R$ and $M$ are Cohen-Macaulay, then it is proved that $\Gid_{R} M<\infty$ whenever \Gid_{R}\H^{n}_\fa(M)<\infty. Next, for a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of dimension $d$, it is proved that if $K_{\hat M}$ is Cohen-Macaulay and \Gid_{R}\H_{\fm}^{d}(M)<\infty, then\Gid_{R}\H_{\fm}^{d}(M)=\depth R- d. The above results have consequences which improve some known results and provide characterizations of Gorenstein rings.
