Abstract

Let \((R, {\mathfrak{m}})\) 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.
