On the associated primes of local cohomology

Abstract

Let RR be a commutative Noetherian ring of prime characteristic pp. In this paper we give a short proof using filter regular sequences that the set of associated prime ideals of HIt(R)H^t_I(R) is finite for any ideal II and for any t0t \ge 0 when RR has finite FF-representation type or finite singular locus. This extends a previous result by Takagi-Takahashi and gives affirmative answers for a problem of Huneke in many new classes of rings in positive characteristic. We also give a criterion about the singularities of RR (in any characteristic) to guarantee that the set of associated primes of HI2(R)H^2_I(R) is always finite.

We added Remark 1.1 about the work of Mel Hochster and Luis N\'u\~nez-Betancourt, who obtained the same result as our main Theorem. Also, Corollary 3.4 was added
