On the generalization of Faltings’ Annihilator Theorem

Abstract

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, and let n be a non-negative integer. In this article, by using the theory of Gorenstein dimensions, it is shown that whenever R is a homomorphic image of a Noetherian Gorenstein ring, then the invariants ${\inf\{i \in \mathbb{N}_0|\, \rm{dim\, Supp}(\mathfrak{b}^t H_{\mathfrak{a}}^i(M)) \geq n\, \rm{for\, all}\, t \in \mathbb{N}_0\}}$ and ${\inf\{\lambda_{\mathfrak{a} R_{\mathfrak{p}}}^{\mathfrak{b} R_{\mathfrak{p}}}(M_{\mathfrak{p}})|\, \mathfrak{p} \in {\rm Spec} \, R\, \rm{and\, dim}\, R/ \mathfrak{p} \geq n\}}$ are equal, for every finitely generated R-module M and for all ideals ${\mathfrak{a}, \mathfrak{b}}$ of R with ${\mathfrak{b}\subseteq \mathfrak{a}}$. This generalizes Faltings’ Annihilator Theorem (see [6]).
