A NOTE ON LOCAL DUALITY
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 January 1997
Abstract
Let (R, [mfr ]) be a local Noetherian ring. We show that if R is complete, then an R-module M satisfies local duality if and only if the Bass numbers μi([mfr ], M) are finite for all i. The class of modules with finite Bass numbers includes all finitely generated, all Artinian, and all Matlis reflexive R-modules. If the ring R is not complete, we show by example that modules with finite Bass numbers need not satisfy local duality. We prove that Matlis reflexive modules satisfy local duality in general, where R is any local ring with a dualizing complex.
