On the structure of finitely generated modules and the unmixed degrees

Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We use the splitting of local cohomology to shed a new light on the structure of non-Cohen-Macaulay modules. Namely, we show that every finitely generated $R$-module $M$ is associated by a sequence of invariant modules. This modules sequence expresses the deviation of $M$ with the Cohen-Macaulay property. This result generalizes the unmixed theorem of Cohen-Macaulayness for any finitely generated $R$-module. As an application we construct a new extended degree in sense of Vasconcelos.

On the limit closure of a sequence of elements in local rings

We present a systematic study for the limit closure $(\underline{x})^{\lim}$ of a sequence of elements $\underline{x}$ (eg. a system of of parameters) in a local ring. Firstly, we answer the question which elements are always contained in the limit closure of a system of parameters. Then we apply this result to give a characterization of systems of parameters which is a generalization of previous results of Dutta and Roberts in \cite{DR} and of Fouli and Huneke in \cite{FH}. We also prove a topological characterization of unmixed local rings. In two dimensional case, we compute explicitly the limit closure of a system of parameters. Some interesting examples are given.

On the index of reducibility of parameter ideals: The stable and limit values

Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$. A famous result of Northcott says that if $M$ is Cohen-Macaulay, then the index of reducibility of parameter ideals on $M$ is an invariant of the module. The aim of this paper is to extend Northcott's theorem for any finitely generated $R$-module. We call this invariant the stable value of the indices of reducibility of parameter ideals of $M$. We also introduce the limit value of the indices of reducibility of parameter ideals of $M$.

On the index of reducibility in Noetherian modules

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a Noetherian ring $R$ and $N$ a submodule. The index of reducibility ir$_M(N)$ is the number of irreducible submodules that appear in an irredundant irreducible decomposition of $N$ (this number is well defined by a classical result of Emmy Noether). Then the main results of this paper are: (1) $\mathrm{ir}_M(N) = \sum_{{\frak p} \in \mathrm{Ass}_R(M/N)} \dim_{k(\frak p)} \mathrm{Soc}(M/N)_{\frak p} $; (2) For an irredundant primary decomposition of $N = Q_1 \cap \cdots \cap Q_n$, where $Q_i$ is $\frak p_i$-primary, then $\mathrm{ir}_M(N) = \mathrm{ir}_M(Q_1) + \cdots + \mathrm{ir}_M(Q_n)$ if and only if $Q_i$ is a $\frak p_i$-maximal embedded component of $N$ for all embedded associated prime ideals $\frak p_i$ of $N$; (3) For an ideal $I$ of $R$ there exists a polynomial $\mathrm{Ir}_{M,I}(n)$ such that $\mathrm{Ir}_{M,I}(n)=\mathrm{ir}_M(I^nM)$ for $n\gg 0$. Moreover, $\mathrm{bight}_M(I)-1\le °(\mathrm{Ir}_{M,I}(n))\le \ell_M(I)-1$; (4) If $(R, \frak m)$ is local, $M$ is Cohen-Macaulay if and only if there exist an integer $l$ and a parameter ideal $\frak q$ of $M$ contained in $\frak m^l$ such that $\mathrm{ir}_M({\frak q}M)=\dim_k\mathrm{Soc}(H^d_{\frak m}(M))$, where $d=\dim M$.

Local cohomology annihilators and Macaulayfication

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 arithmetic Macaulayfication and the existence of a p-standard system of parameters; and both are proved to be equivalent to the existence of an arithmetic Macaulayfication on the ground ring. A connection between Macaulayfication and universal catenaricity is also discussed.

On the finiteness and stability of certain sets of associated primes ideals of local cohomology modules

Let $(R,\frak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $N$ a finitely generated $R$-module. Let $k{\ge}-1$ be an integer and $ r=\depth_k(I,N)$ the length of a maximal $N$-sequence in dimension $>k$ in $I$ defined by M. Brodmann and L. T. Nhan ({Comm. Algebra, 36 (2008), 1527-1536). For a subset $S\subseteq \Spec R$ we set $S_{{\ge}k}={\p\in S\mid\dim(R/\p){\ge}k}$. We first prove in this paper that $\Ass_R(H^j_I(N))_{\ge k}$ is a finite set for all $j{\le}r$}. Let $\fN=\oplus_{n\ge 0}N_n$ be a finitely generated graded $\fR$-module, where $\fR$ is a finitely generated standard graded algebra over $R_0=R$. Let $r$ be the eventual value of $\depth_k(I,N_n)$. Then our second result says that for all $l{\le}r$ the sets $\bigcup_{j{\le}l}\Ass_R(H^j_I(N_n))_{{\ge}k}$ are stable for large $n$.

On the cofiniteness of generalized local cohomology modules

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$, $N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The aim of this paper is to investigate the $I$-cofiniteness of generalized local cohomology modules $\displaystyle H^j_I(M,N)=\dlim\Ext^j_R(M/I^nM,N)$ of $M$ and $N$ with respect to $I$. We first prove that if $I$ is a principal ideal then $H^j_I(M,N)$ is $I$-cofinite for all $M, N$ and all $j$. Secondly, let $t$ be a non-negative integer such that $\dim\Supp(H^j_I(M,N))\le 1 \text{for all} j<t.$ Then $H^j_I(M,N)$ is $I$-cofinite for all $j<t$ and $\Hom(R/I,H^t_I(M,N))$ is finitely generated. Finally, we show that if $\dim(M)\le 2$ or $\dim(N)\le 2$ then $H^j_I(M,N)$ is $I$-cofinite for all $j$.

Hilbert coefficients and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules

The purpose of this paper is to present a characterization of sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules in terms of its Hilbert coefficients with respect to distinguished parameter ideals. The formulas involve arithmetic degrees. Among corollaries of the main result we obtain a short proof of Vasconcelos Vanishing Conjecture for modules and an upper bound for the first Hilbert coefficient.

A Splitting Theorem for Local Cohomology and its Applications

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We show in this paper that, for an integer $t$, if the local cohomology module $H^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(M)$ with respect to an ideal $\frak a$ is finitely generated for all $i<t$, then $$H^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(M/xM)\cong H^{i}_\mathfrak{a}(M)\oplus H^{i+1}_\mathfrak{a}(M)$ for all $\frak a$-filter regular elements $x$ containing in a enough large power of $\frak a$ and all $i<t-1$. As consequences we obtain generalizations, by very short proofs, of the main results of M. Brodmann and A.L. Faghani (A finiteness result for associated primes of local cohomology modules, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 128(2000), 2851-2853) and of H.L. Truong and the first author (Asymptotic behavior of parameter ideals in generalized Cohen-Macaulay module, J. Algebra, 320(2008),158-168).

On a new invariant of finitely generated modules over local rings

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 integer $p_\mathcal F(M)$ which is defined as the least degree of all polynomials in $n_1, ..., n_d$ bounding above the function $$\ell(M/(x_1^{n_1}, ..., x_d^{n_d})M)-\sum_{i=0}^tn_1...n_{d_i}e(x_1,..., x_{d_i};M_i).$$ We prove that $p_\mathcal F(M)$ is independent of the choices of good systems of parameters $\underline x=x_1, ..., x_d$. When $\F$ is the dimension filtration of $M$ we also present some relations between $p_\F(M)$ and the polynomial type of each $M_i/M_{i-1}$ and the dimension of the non-sequentially Cohen-Macaulay locus of $M$.

On pseudo supports and non Cohen-Macaulay locus of finitely generated modules

Let $(R,\m)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module with $\dim M=d.$ Let $i\geq 0$ be an integer. Following M. Brodmann and R. Y. Sharp \cite{BS1}, the $i$-th pseudo support of $M$ is the set of all prime ideals $\p$ of $R$ such that $ H^{i-\dim (R/\p)}_{\p R_{\p}}(M_{\p})\neq 0.$ In this paper, we study the pseudo supports and the non Cohen-Macaulay locus of $M$ in connections with the catenarity of the ring $R/\Ann_RM$, the Serre conditions on $M$, and the unmixedness of the local rings $R/\p$ for certain prime ideals $\p$ in $\Supp_R (M)$.

Asymptotic stability of certain sets of associated prime ideals of local cohomology modules

Let $(R,\m)$ be a Noetherian local ring $I, J$ two ideals of $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R-$module. It is first shown that for $k\geq -1$ the integer $r_k = \depth_k(I,J^nM/J^{n+1}M)$, it is the length of a maximal $(J^nM/J^{n+1}M)-$sequence in dimension $>k$ in $I$ defined by M. Brodmann and L. T. Nhan \cite{BN}, becomes for large $n$ independent of $n$. Then we prove in this paper that the sets $\bigcup_{j\le r_k}\Ass_R(H^j_I(J^nM/J^{n+1}M))$ with $k=-1$ or $k=0$, and $\bigcup_{j\le r_1}\Ass_R(H^j_I(J^nM/J^{n+1}M))\cup\{\m\}$ are stable for large $n$. We also obtain similar results for modules $M/J^nM$.

Asymptotic Behaviour of Parameter Ideals in Generalized Cohen-Macaulay Modules

The purpose of this paper is to give affirmative answers to two open questions as follows. Let $(R, \m)$ be a generalized Cohen-Macaulay Noetherian local ring. Both questions, the first question was raised by M. Rogers \cite {R} and the second one is due to S. Goto and H. Sakurai \cite {GS1}, ask whether for every parameter ideal $\q$ contained in a high enough power of the maximal ideal $\m $ the following statements are true: (1) The index of reducibility $N_R(\q;R)$ is independent of the choice of $\q$; and (2) $I^2=\q I$, where $I=\q:_R\m$.

A local homology theory for linearly compact modules

We introduce a local homology theory for linearly compact modules which is in some sense dual to the local cohomology theory of A. Grothendieck. Some basic properties such as the noetherianness, the vanishing and non-vanishing of local homology modules of linearly compact modules are proved. A duality theory between local homology and local cohomology modules of linearly compact modules is developed by using Matlis duality and Macdonald duality. As consequences of the duality theorem we obtain some generalizations of well-known results in the theory of local cohomology for semi-discrete linearly compact modules.

On the Vanishing and the Finiteness of Supports of Generalized Local Cohomology Modules

Let $(R,\fr m)$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The first result of this paper is to prove a vanishing theorem for generalized local cohomology modules which says that $H^j_I(M,N)=0$ for all $j>\dim(R)$, provided $M$ is of finite projective dimension. Next, we study and give characterizations for the least and the last integer $r$ such that $\Supp(H^r_I(M,N))$ is infinite.

On the Structure of Sequentially Generalized Cohen-Macaulay Modules

A finitely generated module $M$ over a local ring is called a sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay module if there is a filtration of submodules of $M$: $M_0\subset M_1\subset ... \subset M_t=M$ such that $\dim M_0<\dim M_1< >... <\dim M_t$ and each $M_i/M_{i-1}$ is generalized Cohen-Macaulay. The aim of this paper is to study the structure of this class of modules. Many basic properties of these modules are presented and various characterizations of sequentially generalized Cohen-Macaulay property by using local cohomology modules, theory of multiplicity and in terms of systems of parameters are given. We also show that the notion of dd-sequences defined in \cite{cc} is an important tool for studying this class of modules.
