For a noetherian ring R we call an R-module M cofinite if there exists an ideal I of R such that M is I-cofinite; we show that every cofinite module M satisfies dim_R(M)<=injdimR(M). As an application we study the question which local…

Let R be a local complete ring. For an R-module M the canonical ring map R\to End_R(M) is in general neither injective nor surjective; we show that it is bijective for every local cohomology module M := H^h_I(R) if H^l_I(R) = 0 for every…

Given a module M over a ring R which has a grading by a semigroup Q, we present a spectral sequence that computes the local cohomology of M at any Q-graded ideal I in terms of Ext modules. This method is used to obtain finiteness results…

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.…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a regular local ring containing a field $K$. Let $I$ be a Cohen-Macaulay ideal of height $g$. If $\text{char } K = p > 0$ then by a result of Peskine and Szpiro the local cohomology modules $H^i_I(R)$ vanish for $i…

Let $R$ be a regular ring, let $J$ be an ideal generated by a regular sequence of codimension at least $2$, and let $I$ be an ideal containing $J$. We give an example of a module $H^3_I(J)$ with infinitely many associated primes, answering…
