Cohomology as a Local-to-global Bridge

چکیده

I discuss low dimensional incarnations of cohomology and illustrate how basic cohomological principles lead to a proof of Sperner’s lemma. CONTENTS 1. Chains and cochains with Z/2-coefficients 1 2. Application to Sperner Lemma 4 3. Where is the cohomology? 6 4. What next? 8 References 8 1. CHAINS AND COCHAINS WITH Z/2-COEFFICIENTS To keep the formalism at a minimum I will concentrate only on triangulated spaces of dimension ≤ 2. These are compact spaces equipped with a decomposition as a finite union of points vertices (or 0-simplices), edges (or 1-simplices) and triangles (or 2-simplices). Two edges can have in common at most one end-point, triangles can have in common only an edge or only a single vertex. An edge and a triangle can have in common either a single vertex, or the edge could be an entire edge of the triangle; see Figure 1.

TOP LOCAL COHOMOLOGY AND TOP FORMAL LOCAL COHOMOLOGY MODULES WITH SPECIFIED ATTACHED PRIMES

Let (R,m) be a Noetherian local ring, M be a finitely generated R-module of dimension n and a be an ideal of R. In this paper, generalizing the main results of Dibaei and Jafari [3] and Rezaei [8], we will show that if T is a subset of AsshR M, then there exists an ideal a of R such that AttR Hna (M)=T. As an application, we give some relationships between top local cohomology modules and top f...

Serre Subcategories and Local Cohomology Modules with Respect to a Pair of Ideals

This paper is concerned with the relation between local cohomology modules defined by a pair of ideals and the Serre subcategories of the category of modules. We characterize the membership of local cohomology modules in a certain Serre subcategory from lower range or upper range.

On the Associated Primes of the generalized $d$-Local Cohomology Modules

The first part of the paper is concerned to relationship between the sets of associated primes of the generalized $d$-local cohomology modules and the ordinary  generalized local cohomology  modules.  Assume that $R$ is a commutative Noetherian local ring, $M$ and $N$  are  finitely generated  $R$-modules and $d, t$ are two integers. We prove that $Ass H^t_d(M,N)=bigcup_{Iin Phi} Ass H^t_I(M,N)...

Finiteness of certain local cohomology modules

Cofiniteness of the generalized local cohomology modules $H^{i}_{mathfrak{a}}(M,N)$ of two $R$-modules $M$ and $N$ with respect to an ideal $mathfrak{a}$ is studied for some $i^{,}s$ witha specified property. Furthermore, Artinianness of $H^{j}_{mathfrak{b}_{0}}(H_{mathfrak{a}}^{i}(M,N))$ is investigated by using the above result, in certain graded situations, where $mathfrak{b}_{0}$ is an idea...

Extension functors of local cohomology modules

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with non-zero identity, $fa$ an ideal of $R$, and $X$ an $R$--module. Here, for fixed integers $s, t$ and a finite $fa$--torsion $R$--module $N$, we first study the membership of $Ext^{s+t}_{R}(N, X)$ and $Ext^{s}_{R}(N, H^{t}_{fa}(X))$ in the Serre subcategories of the category of $R$--modules. Then, we present some conditions which ensure the exi...
