Quadrics through a set of points and their syzygies.
Let Φ be a system of ideals on a commutative Noetherian ring R, and let S be a multiplicatively closed subset of R. The first result shows that the topologies defined by and are equivalent if and only if S is disjoint from the quintasymptotic primes of Φ. Also, by using the generalized Lichtenbaum-Hartshorne vanishing theorem we show that, if (R,) is a d-dimensional local quasi-unmixed ring, then , the dth local cohomology module of R with respect to Φ, vanishes if and only if there exists...
