Extract

Let R be a noetherian local ring with maximal ideal m and residue field k. If M is a finitely generated R-module then the local cohomology modules are known to be Artinian. Grothendieck [3], exposé 13, 1·2 made the following conjecture:

If I is an ideal of R and M is a finitely generated R-module, then HomR (R/I, ) is finitely generated.
