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…
We explore the classical Lech's inequality relating the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicity and colength of an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$. We prove optimal versions of Lech's inequality for…
This first part of the paper describes the support of top graded local cohomology modules. As a corrolary one obtains a simple criteria for the vanishing of these modules and also the fact that they have finitely many minimal primes. The…
Let $V,W$ be representations of a cyclic group $G$ of prime order $p$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$. The module of covariants $k[V,W]^G$ is the set of $G$-equivariant polynomial maps $V \rightarrow W$, and is a module over…
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},…
Let $M$ be a finitely generated module on a local ring $R$ and $\F: M_0\subset M_1\subset...\subset M_t=M$ a filtration of submodules of $M$ such that $ d_o<d_1< ... <d_t=d$, where $d_i=\dim M_i$. This paper is concerned with a non-negative…
Let $d_1,...,d_r$ be positive integers and let $I = (F_1,...,F_r)$ be an ideal generated by general forms of degrees $d_1,...,d_r$, respectively, in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables. When all the degrees are the same we give a…
In this paper we prove the following generalization of a result of Hartshorne: Let $(S,\n)$ be a regular local ring of dimension $4$. Assume that $x,y,u,v$ is a regular system of parameters for $S$ and $a:=xu+yv$. Then for each finitely…
Let $(R,m)$ be a local Noetherian ring, let $I\subset R$ be any ideal and let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. In 1990 Craig Huneke conjectured that the local cohomology modules $H^i_I(M)$ have finitely many associated primes for all…
Let \fa be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R and M and N two finitely generated R-modules. Let \cd_{\fa}(M,N) denote the supremum of the i's such that H^i_{\fa}(M,N)\neq 0. First, by using the theory of Gorenstein homological…
For any finitely generated module $M$ with non-zero rank over a commutative one-dimensional Noetherian local domain, we study a numerical invariant $\operatorname{h}(M)$ based on a partial trace ideal of $M$. We study its properties and…
Given ideals $I,J$ of a noetherian local ring $(R, \mathfrak m)$ such that $I+J$ is $\mathfrak m$-primary and a finitely generated $R$-module $M$, we associate an invariant of $(M,R,I,J)$ called the $h$-function. Our results on…
The Hilbert depth of a module M is the maximum depth that occurs among all modules with the same Hilbert function as M. In this note we compute the Hilbert depths of the powers of the irrelevant maximal ideal in a standard graded polynomial…
Let $(\mathcal{O}_n, \mathfrak{m})$ denote the ring of germs of holomorphic functions $\mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}$, and let $I\subseteq \mathcal{O}_n$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. Demailly and Pham showed that $\mathrm{lct}(I) \geq…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We say $M$ has maximal depth if there is an associated prime $\mathfrak{p}$ of $M$ such that depth $M=\dim R/\mathfrak{p}$. In this paper, we study…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and let $M$ and $N$ be nonzero finitely generated $R$-modules. In this paper, we investigate how the finiteness of the homological dimension of Ext modules between $M$ and $N$ affects that of…
We obtain various characterizations of commutative Noetherian local rings $(R, \fm)$ in terms of homological dimensions of certain finitely generated modules. For example, we establish that $R$ is Gorenstein if the Gorenstein injective…
Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ and $J$ two ideals of $R$, $M$ an $R$-module and $s$ and $t$ two integers. We study the relationship between the Bass numbers of $M$ and $H^{i}_{I,J}(M)$. We show that…
For an ideal $I$ of a Noetherian local ring $(R,\fm,k)$ we show that $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)\geq -1$. It is demonstrated that some residual intersections of an ideal $I$ for which $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)= -1\;\text{or}\;0$ are perfect. Some…
Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over the field $K$, and let $I\subset S$ be a graded ideal. It is shown that for $k \gg0$ the postulation number of $I^k$ is bounded by a linear function of $k$, and it is a linear function…
