Abstract

Let A be a noetherian local ring, and I an ideal of A of dimension one. Our purpose of this paper is to prove that the category \({\mathcal{M} (A, I)_{cof}}\) of cofinite modules is Abelian. Consequently, this assertion answers affirmatively the questions given by Hartshorne (Invent Math 9:147, 1970; cf. Sect. 2. Four Questions and One theorem) for an ideal of dimension one over a local ring.
