Support sets of pairs of modules

David A. Jorgensen

Vol. 207 (2002), No. 2, 393–409
Abstract

Let R be the quotient of a local domain (Q,n) by a proper ideal minimally generated by f1,,fc. Assume Q∕n is algebraically closed, and let M and N be finitely generated R-modules. We show there is an algebraic set in c-dimensional affine space, called the support set of the pair (M,N), which describes those hypersurfaces h (f1,,fc) n(f1,,fc) over which there are infinitely many nonzero ExtQ∕(h)i(M,N). This generalizes to arbitrary quotients of regular local rings the notion of support variety for modules over complete intersections.
