Cohen-Macaulay ring/Positive characteristic/Cohomological criterion for tight closure/Fact

From Wikiversity

Suppose that is a Cohen-Macaulay ring of positive characteristic and of dimension . Let be an -primary ideal. Let be a free (not necessarily minimal) resolution of , let be the corresponding syzygy sheaves, let be an element and let be the corresponding cohomology classes.

Then for each

, , we have the equivalence that if and only if is tightly in the sense that there exists not in any minimal prime ideal such that

holds in for all .
